The best part of the holidays is all the seasonal food we get to indulge in. We’ve got a few more weeks left to enjoy these limited-edition treats before they’re gone for the year. Here’s a quick cheat sheet on where you can find the best holiday drinks for 2022.
This year’s lineup of Starbucks holiday drinks features a mix of old favorites and new concoctions. There’s everyone’s Christmas favorite Toffee Nut Crunch Latte making a comeback with the festive Peppermint Mocha Latte. But new on the menu is the Red Velvet Oatmilk Latte, an espresso drink made with red velvet-flavored syrup and oat milk. Enjoy these in merry and bright cup designs along with Starbucks’ holiday food offerings like Chocolate Peppermint Doughnut, Purple Yummy Cake, Chocolate Crepe Cake, and more.
Japanese brand MUJI has also released its own line of holiday drinks, a combo of new minty and fruity drinks.

It might not be winter in the Philippines but these treats will make you feel like it. These are available for dine-in, takeout, pickup, and delivery.
McDonald’s makes sure that we look forward to the last few weeks of the year (or at least help us survive it). They recently launched their all-new holiday treats last Nov 11 featuring McCrispy Hamonado Sandwich, Coffee Caramel McFlurry, Speculoos Cookie McFlurry, and Speculoos Cookie Frappe.
At McDonald’s, there is more than enough to share with each of your loved ones – or even all by yourself. Share the light this Christmas with their holiday offerings, now available at your nearest McDonald’s branch via Dine-In, Take-Out, Drive-Thru, and McDelivery. O, Christmas treats indeed!
