Costa Coffee’s Christmas menu is officially here, with the chain introducing numerous brand-new items.

From this Friday (October 24) the festive season begins as a host of new drinks, treats and merchandise greets Costa’s menu.

While many will be accustomed to the fan-favourite Mint Hot Chocolate, Terry’s Chocolate Orange® Hot Chocolate and the Black Forest Hot Chocolate at this time of year, Costa has also announced a new Butter Pecan Cookie Latte.

The drink is described as a delicious seasonal twist on the standard latte, topped with light whip and butter pecan cookie pieces.

Other lattes which are embracing the spirit of Christmas include the returning Caramel Nutcracker Range, which can be chosen as a hot chocolate, latte and iced latte, alongside the gingerbread latte.

For those who don’t often get the chance to pop into a Costa branch, the Caramel Nutcracker Range can still be enjoyed at Costa Express machines nationwide from October 23, while the new Butter Pecan Cookie Latte, Hot Chocolate and Iced Latte are available exclusively at Costa Express machines in Shell service station locations

Alongside a number of drinks, there are some new snacks and merchandise which can be bought this year – as well as some returning favourites.

The Turkey & Trimmings Toastie, Pigs & Blankets Toastie, Brie & Cranberry Toastie, Turkey Feast Sandwich, and the Brie, Bacon & Cranberry Panini are all back, alongside some new goodies.

Costa’s Dubai Style Pistachio Tiffin, which will be available from November 6, brings a rich fusion of chocolate, pistachio and festive crunch, while the NEW Caramel Nutcracker Cookie Sandwich layers hazelnut frosting and caramel between two dark chocolate cookies.

In addition, the new Festive Spice Muffin is packed with fruit and sticky toffee sauce for the ultimate seasonal bite.

“From our brand-new Butter Pecan Cookie Latte and Dubai-Style Pistachio Tiffin to returning favourites like the Pigs in Blanket Toastie, every drink and bite is designed to make those Christmas catch-ups and family gathering feel extra special.”
