Tacky or Not; New Starbucks Cups ‘Merry Coffee’ For the Holiday Season
“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…” at Starbucks.
Starbucks lovers weren’t exactly fans of the past cups . In 2015, they just issued plain red cups. It caused quite a stir as if they were on war with Christmas.
According to their spokesperson, the coffee company now wants to bring cheers and joys to their customers. That’s even in simple ways. “Merry Coffee” is a good expression, so every time that customer takes a sip, they would feel the holiday season. The cups were designed to “evoke those mini moments of joy.”
Could this actually mean that Christmas is nearing because this giant coffee industry has launched its festive holiday design? The great news about this one is that we can reuse these cups over and over again. We’re sure they are sturdy enough to last a lot of Christmases. Earlier, Starbucks cups were tested to become greener cups. Some of them have materials made up of compostable and others were even strawless.
Starbucks swore to stop using plastic straws by 2020. This a big step to being environmentally friendly.
The designs of Starbucks cups often draw different criticisms and praise from their customers. Fans didn’t like their new slogan.
One posted “Bah Humbug.”
Another one said “I’m gonna get a jump start on Starbucks holiday cup drama by saying that “Merry Coffee” is the silliest slogan I have ever heard.”
Four designs are out now – the main red cup, white and green holiday patterns that look like gift wrappers. Official names for this Starbucks cups are Merry Dance, Merry Stripes, Candy Cane Stripes and Polka Dots. Many fans have been waiting for this time of the year. They all can’t wait to have one or even collect the cups.
Starbucks cups began emerging in 1997 as a purple holiday cup, and so was the second one resulting to different designs were done since then.
Starbucks Christmas Flavours
Enjoy a cup! Peppermint Mocha, Toasted White Chocolate Mocha, Caramel Brulee, Eggnog Late and Chestnut Praline. You can choose whether you want to drink it hot, iced or blended Frappuccino.
Starbucks will have Christmas colour decors and candy cane ribbon theme during the season. Of course, avid loyalist will also be heading to stores not only for the coffee but Starbucks Cards and gifts from their barista who will be wearing red aprons. And for those customers coming if after 2 PM bringing their own cups, they would get $.50 cents off until January 7.
Earlier this morning, some customers didn’t get their Starbucks cups and not so excited about it, but many also were happy and surprised for some. These holiday cups will be all over participating stores across the US and Canada and will surely be available during the holidays while supplies last. Just make sure that you order any of those holiday drinks to get that reusable Starbucks cups on the go with you.
