Well, my friends, we made it. All the presents have been given out, the new year has begun in earnest, and it seems like everyone is locked in and focused on leveling up in 2026. But if you’re still stuck in December and missing the warm glow of the holiday season, this time of year can make it easy for the winter blues to set in. Thankfully, Starbucks is here to bring some post-holiday cheer to fans with its winter 2026 menu additions.
Revealed on Jan. 6, Starbucks’s new winter 2026 menu items are serving as apt replacements for the fan-favorite holiday menu items that are now on their way out. (I’ll miss you dearly, Chestnut Praline Latte!) For starters, the new menu is introducing a handful of brand-new and returning drinks that feature some of the top food and beverage trends that have been going viral lately. The new food lineup is also giving trendy, with a gourmet-sounding new egg bite offering, a celeb snack brand, and more.
Here’s a breakdown of all the new food and drink items hitting Starbucks stores on Jan. 6 to help keep you in good spirits all winter long.

Starbucks went all in on protein in 2025, and it looks like there are no signs of slowing down in 2026. For starters, the coffee chain is introducing two new caramel protein drinks to its permanent menu: the Caramel Protein Latte and Caramel Protein Matcha, both using protein-boosted milk in their recipes. Each drink can be ordered hot or iced, with either classic caramel syrup or the brand’s new sugar-free caramel syrup.
