This year's lineup of holiday Starbucks drinks has a brand new beverage in the mix.
There's a new addition to the red cup favorites Starbucks enthusiasts have come to know and love, like Peppermint Mochas, Gingerbread Lattes and the Chestnut Praline Latte, back from last year. This year's latest coffee offering is the Holiday Spice Flat White. The Christmas-themed Starbucks drink is based on the recently introduced flat white, which is essentially a mix of espresso and steamed milk.
The Holiday Spice Flat White has two shots of Christmas Blend Espress Roast, a generous helping of frothy steamed milk and a spice blend of ground sugar, ginger, nutmeg, clove, cinnamon and tangerine sugar. It provides the walloping dose of caffeine needed to get through the day with a heavenly flavor of holiday cheer.
