It’s finally time, you guys—I tried all of the 2025 Starbucks holiday drinks that dropped today, and I gave you my honest taste-test ratings as I went. I started with the Iced Gingerbread Chai because I didn’t want the non-dairy gingerbread cold foam to melt, and it was genuinely so festive. You can really taste the warm spices and that spicy cookie vibe, and I rated it an 8/10—definitely not an everyday drink for me, but I would 100% get it again. Then I tried the Iced Sugar Cookie Latte, which is usually one of my favorite holiday drinks… but this one was a total miss. Mine tasted super watered down with basically no sugar cookie flavor, and I ended up giving it a 3/10 (and I’m hoping it was just made wrong). After that, the Peppermint Mocha totally redeemed the lineup—peppermint + mocha are literally born to be together, and it’s a 9/10 from me. And of course, I saved my go-to for last: the Caramel Brûlée Latte. It’s always a 10/10, and if you only get one holiday drink this year, I really think it should be that one. I also tried the new Cinnamon Pull-Apart (buttery croissant pieces with cinnamon sugar—so good), and I showed a super cute Hello Kitty Starbucks mug from the holiday collection. Plus, I shared that Eggnog Latte and Chestnut Praline Latte should be coming later in the season, and I’ll be trying them when they drop.
