Starbucks is giving us Lunar New Year and Valentine’s Day merch
2023 is only just beginning yet Starbucks isn’t wasting any time in trying to make sure everyone gets a chance to celebrate.
Most of us know how popular Starbucks cups are. With all the unique designs and colors, I’m sure you either own one or can picture one you admired if you didn’t buy it. Even if you don’t, don’t worry.
For 2023 though, the coffee chain is mixing things up by featuring two holidays in its merch which is a nice change of pace. One of the holidays is usually vastly ignored by the US so it’s nice to see the retail coffee giant trying something new.
No matter which holidays you’re celebrating this season, Starbucks is sure to have something in its new lineup that will catch your eye.
For 2023, Starbucks is featuring Lunar New Year and Valentine’s Day merch.
Since Lunar New Year is coming before Valentine’s Day, we’ll discuss those products first. If you didn’t know, Lunar New Year is being celebrated on January 22nd this year and lasts until February 5th. For 2023, this is the year of the Rabbit and Starbucks unveiled the cutest lineup if you’re looking to celebrate.
Before you get too excited, there is one important fact to know. If you’re in the U.S., you aren’t able to get this merchandise at every location. Rather according to the statement from the company, “Customers can find Year of the Rabbit merchandise exclusively at Starbucks cafés in Target stores nationwide, while supplies last.” Essentially if you’re near a Target with a Starbucks in there, it’s worth making a trip if you want something.
For Lunar New Year in the U.S., Starbucks is featuring three new products which include a mug, cold cup, and tumbler. Each of them shares the same pink theme along with cute illustrations of rabbits. If you’re in an Asian country that celebrates and has a Starbucks, the post features products from other markets, too.
If you’re looking forward to celebrating Valentine’s Day instead, then the company also released its lineup for V-Day. For Valentine’s Day, there are plenty of different options including cold cups, mugs, and even a set of hot cups. There will also be gift cards featuring the holiday on them so if you’re looking to gift your sweetie something, that’s an option, too.
Either way, it looks like Starbucks is ready to get this year underway and has some of us blowing our spending goals within the first two months of the year. At least, you’ll be able to look cute which is sometimes all you need.
