Get These 3 Starbucks’ Holiday Drinks With No Dairy-Free Surcharge

Starbucks is offering a festive lineup of holiday drinks, including its first-ever holiday-themed Refreshers, such as the Cran-Merry Orange Refresher and Cran-Merry Drink, highlighting cranberries as a seasonal symbol. What makes this holiday season even more special is that Starbucks has dropped its dairy-free surcharge, allowing customers to order these drinks with dairy-free milk at no extra cost. The new drinks are inspired by the idea of a festive punch, with flavors like sweet orange, warm spices, and crisp cranberry, and can be customized to be entirely plant-based.

In addition to the Refreshers, Starbucks is offering three dairy-free drinks from its holiday menu, including the Peppermint Mocha, Chestnut Praline Latte, and Iced Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte, all available with vegan milk substitutions at no extra charge. The decision to eliminate the dairy-free surcharge at Starbucks locations in the US and Canada is part of a larger effort to make plant-based choices more accessible and sustainable, aligning with customer demands for more environmentally friendly options.
