To celebrate the arrival of the holiday season, Starbucks is bringing back the tradition of the free reusable red cup giveaways. Starting November 18th, customers who order a handcrafted holiday beverage at participating Starbucks stores in Canada will receive the free reusable cup while supplies last. These drinks include the Sugar Cookie Oat Latte, the Peppermint Mocha, the Irish Cream Cold Brew, and the Caramel Brûlé Latte -- to name a few.
The Starbucks holiday cups for this year are made with 50 percent recycled content and feature a festive red design with playful swirls of ribbon dancing against a starry sky. In addition, customers can bring reusable cups back to Starbucks next time they order for a discount of $0.10.
