Costa fans 'obsessed' as brand launches Christmas menu
We may still be deep in Pumpkin Spice Latte season, but Costa Coffee is already looking ahead to the holidays with its brand-new Christmas drinks range.
If you’ve seriously had your fill of the iconic Starbucks PSL and can’t wait to indulge in festive flavours, then good news: Costa is dropping four festive-themed beverages as early as next week.
However, some shoppers are worried that ‘Christmas might be ruined’ if the brand doesn’t re-launch a fan-favourite drink in time for the season.
Gingerbread Latte and Iced Matcha
The Costa Coffee 2026 drinks range is led by the much-loved returning Gingerbread Latte. it joins with a debuting Gingebread Iced Matcha for those who prefer green tea to coffee.
The former starts at £4.55 for a small cup, while the Gingerbread Iced Matcha is priced at £5.35 for the same size.

Both creamy companions will be served from 22 October.
Expect your barista to hand you yours with a delicious swirl of cream and a cute, edible gingerbread man. Declicious.
Golden Hazel Latte with Ferrero Rocher
Excitingly, there is also a Golden Hazel Latte with Ferrero Rocher on the menu this year.
Described as ‘sweet, nutty and beautifully caramelised’ by Good Housekeeping, the moreish drink is presented with a gorgeously rich chocolate whip topped with golden hazelnut crumbs.
Coffee fans who pick up the Golden Hazel Latte with Ferrero Rocher from Costa will also be served an individually wrapped Ferrero Rocher on the side. Some (us) would hail it as the ultimate luxury.
Expect to spend at least £4.95 on a small, according to The Sun.
Ultimate Yule Brownie range
Costa isn’t stopping there—it’s also set to launch a specialist Ultimate Yule Brownie drinks range.
The limited-time collection includes both an Ultimate Yule Brownie Latte and an Ultimate Yule Brownie Hot Chocolate.
Expect yours to come dressed with chocolate whip, brownie pieces, and meringue.
Those craving the former can expect to pay £4.55 for a small, while the hot chocolate is priced at £4.70 for the exact same size beverage.
It’s understood the beloved business is set to detail the rest of its festive menu in due course.
And it’s fair to assume we’ve got our eyes, ears, and taste buds peeled in the meantime.
“We’re obsessed”, say Costa Coffee fans
Social media users have been chatting about the early Costa Coffee Christmas menu launch, with one typing: “I’m here for the Brownie hot choc,” as per The Sun.
Another X user said: “COSTA CHRISTMAS DRINKS JUST DROPPED… AND WE’RE OBSESSED!”
A second replied: “I want to know what food they are bring out. The hot chocolate I'm interested in,” another claimed.
“If the Black Forest isn’t back I’m going to have a meltdown!”
Despite the excitement, some fans have been grumbling that the cult-favourite Black Forest Hot Chocolate has seemingly been ommitted from the initial lineup.
However, it appears that the Costa Coffee Instagram has been teasing its return.
“Assuming the black forest is coming back as standard? Or Christmas is ruined,” one Facebook user said.
Someone else wrote: “If the Black Forest isn’t back I’m going to have a meltdown!”
“Just along as #bringtheblackforesthotchocolateback Costa Coffee,” a third added.
Fans will have to keep their eyes out for the so-called 'GOAT Costa drink' to make a gallant comeback.
