Starbucks Singapore welcomes the holiday season with the return of its iconic red cups, which have become for many a celebrated symbol of the warmth and wonder of Christmas. New this year, Starbucks is introducing the Christmas Panettone Latte, inspired by the classic Italian Christmas pastry, as well as the return of holiday favourites that have become as much of a seasonal tradition as the cups themselves. Everyone is invited to stop by Starbucks to spark the spirit of the Christmas by enjoying these beautifully crafted beverages that will rekindle the magic of the season and all of the love and joy it holds.
“Christmas has always been one of our favourite seasons at Starbucks,” said Jane Lau, Managing Director, Starbucks Singapore. “Customers in Singapore have always come to our stores to enjoy and bask in the Christmas festivities, and to reconnect with friends and family. We know that the iconic Starbucks red cups are synonymous to Christmas for our customers, and we look forward to celebrating this joyous occasion with them again, as they come to Starbucks to experience the Christmas cheer with our iconic Christmas beverages.”
Fans would be thrilled to know that Starbucks is introducing the all new Christmas Panettone Latte, which takes customers on a romantic journey to Italy with its sweet, pastry aroma, buttery taste and orange, cranberry and apple sprinkles. This deliciously festive beverage is inspired by the popular Italian Christmas pastry. It pairs perfectly with steamed milk and roasted espresso. It is topped off with whipped cream and a medley of dried fruits for a textural and delicious twist on a classic holiday tradition.
Starbucks also announced the return of Starbucks® Christmas Blend, which has been enjoyed by millions around the world for over 30 years. To formulate this blend, Starbucks ages some of its finest Sumatra beans for up to five years to develop a spicy, cedary, deep and earthy flavour. These beans are then combined with robust coffee beans from Asia-Pacific and vibrant coffees from Latin America to deliver a full-bodied coffee that pairs well with a variety of Christmas foods, from savoury meals to sweet desserts.
You can also enjoy Starbucks® Christmas Blend Espresso Roast and Starbucks® Christmas Blonde Roast, available as whole-bean and the Starbucks VIA® Ready Brew Christmas Blend and Starbucks Christmas Blend Origami to complement sparkling conversations at a dinner party or sweet holiday treats.
In addition to the Christmas Panettone Latte, several returning seasonal favorites will help customers across Singapore ring in the holiday season:
1. Toffee Nut Latte – A seasonal favorite that combines steamed milk, espresso and toffee nut syrup, all topped off with whipped cream and customer favorite, toffee nut sprinkles.
2. Gingerbread Latte – Taking a cue from everyone’s favorite Christmas cookie, this drink features the warm flavors of gingerbread combined with espresso and steamed milk that’s topped off with a spice-infused whipped cream and a brown sugar drizzle topping.
3. Peppermint Mocha – A customer favorite, this chocolatey beverage is infused with peppermint notes, reminiscent of candy canes and holiday festivities. It is finished off with whipped cream, mocha drizzle and red and white candy bits.
