Red Cup day is here! On Thursday, Nov. 16, the annual celebration will provide customers who order any size of a handcrafted holiday beverage with a free limited-edition reusable red holiday cup.
What's so special about the red cup? Returning for its sixth year in a row, the collectible is designed with the intention of being stylish and eco-friendly.
The free reusable red cup is also designed as a gift that keeps on giving, even beyond the holiday season.
An extra bonus for Starbucks Rewards members: Earn 25 bonus Stars when you bring your reusable red cup in for any star-qualifying order, up to 3 times per day.
The complimentary reusable red cup will be used for hand-crafted holiday beverage orders placed in-store, at the drive-thru, on the Starbucks app and via Starbucks Delivers on Nov. 16.
Want a bit of a lighter drink? You can request nonfat milk with any classic seasonal beverage. Two percent milk is standard, but nut, nonfat, and non-dairy options (almond, coconut, oat, and soy) are all available too, though may incur a slight upcharge.
You can also ask for less syrup, aka "fewer pumps" to reduce the sugar content in the typically sweet drinks. And if it doesn't do anything for you, it's totally okay to skip the whip and additional toppings.
And while the reusable Red Cup holds 16 ounces, there's no pressure to refill it with a Grande (16 oz) beverage. Ordering a short (8 oz for hot beverages) or a tall (12 oz) is totally fine. Happy sipping!
