Starbucks Debuts Its First-Ever Vegan As-Is Holiday Drink, the Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte

Starbucks has debuted its first-ever vegan as-is holiday drink, the Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte, as part of its festive holiday menu. The drink is described as a modern twist on a holiday classic, inspired by traditional German spritz cookies. Made with Starbucks’ Blonde Espresso Roast, sugar cookie syrup, and almond milk, the drink is topped with red and green sprinkles for a touch of holiday cheer. Whether enjoyed hot or iced, the Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte is entirely vegan without any modifications needed.

In addition to the new vegan holiday drink, Starbucks also offers several other vegan-friendly holiday beverages, including the Peppermint Mocha, Irish Cream Cold Brew, and Chestnut Praline Latte. By substituting cow’s milk with plant-based milk and avoiding whipped cream, vegans can enjoy a variety of festive coffee drinks this holiday season. The holiday menu will be available until early January, or while supplies last, at participating Starbucks locations.
