How to get a FREE hot chocolate + a new drink at Starbucks

Hello!

Are you staying caffeinated this holiday season? I sure am, and staying very busy too. It is such a fun time with all the holiday drinks available. I’m sharing on Threads what I’m drinking everyday, and some of my favorite flavors, so be sure to follow me there.

Free hot chocolate at Starbucks

Maybe you’ve already heard but Starbucks is offering a free short (8-ounce) hot chocolate each weekend (Sat & Sun) in December with a purchase of a grande or larger drink. It’s a pretty good deal, especially if you are out shopping and need to keep the kids happy!

I’ve heard from baristas, that if you are doing a mobile order, please remember that they don’t know if you want a hot chocolate or not. You will have to ask for one (kindly!) when you pick up your order.

New holiday drink at Starbucks

Starting today, Starbucks is featuring a new holiday drink, the Merry Mint White Mocha. It’s an iced White Mocha with Peppermint Chocolate Cream Foam and Chocolate Curls as a topping. Sounds delicious, and I might have to try one this afternoon!

And remember that Thursday afternoon would be the perfect time to try this drink as Starbucks is offering half off a handcrafted drink from 12-6pm.

Dutch Bros Sticker drop

Since today is a Wednesday, it’s another sticker drop at Dutch Bros! They have one more drop in December after this week. Today’s sticker is a “Winter Wonderland” sticker. Be sure to try a Candy Cane Cold Brew or a Merry Mischief Rebel when you stop by.

Until next time,
Bethany
