The Starbucks secret menu is an ever-evolving list of drinks using existing ingredients and creative recipes. These brilliant creations are the result of mixing and matching by baristas, trending Tik Tokers and dedicated customers. Some secret menu items are only available at certain times of the year, so this list is even more coveted by those who want to taste something new and special during the holidays.
Keep in mind that not all Starbucks Baristas will be familiar with these items, and they may have a different name depending on where you are in the world. It’s important to give the recipe and not the drink’s name. Start with the drink size, the base name, the substitutions, and finally the additions and toppings. To get it just right, we recommend having the recipe handy when you order. Whether you like coffee, tea, or neither, this secret menu list will excite your cravings and inspire your next visit.
