This season, Starbucks Reserve Roasteries and stores in Seattle, Chicago and New York City will feature a variety of handcrafted espresso and tea beverages in cherished holiday flavors, including peppermint mocha and eggnog. With these beverages, and every beverage handcrafted at Starbucks Reserve locations, baristas and mixologists showcase their expertise and passion for coffee craft while sharing their knowledge of brewing methods, coffee bean origins and menu pairings with customers.
New to the holiday menu is the Iced Caramel Brulée Eggnog Latte, featuring Starbucks Reserve Espresso along with eggnog, milk and caramel brulée sauce poured over ice, finished with a rich cold foam and a hand-torched caramelized sugar crust ready to crack into with a spoon.
A holiday spin on a London Fog, the new Starbucks Reserve Fog Nog Tea Latte is carefully crafted with Earl Grey tea, white chocolate mocha and liquid cane sugar, topped with a decadent eggnog cream and a dusting of nutmeg.
Returning for the holiday season is the Starbucks Reserve Peppermint Mocha, crafted with Starbucks Reserve Espresso, steamed milk, dark chocolate, and peppermint flavored syrup, topped with whipped cream and rich dark chocolate curls.
Other holiday beverages include the new Starbucks Reserve Eggnog Espresso Martini, the returning Starbucks Reserve Peppermint Mocha Espresso Martini and the new Starbucks Reserve Holiday Espresso Martini Flight.
