It’s the perfect day for a Starbucks run. Of course, to Starbucks lovers, every day is the perfect day for a Starbucks run — but today is an especially perfect day because from noon to 6 p.m., you can get 50% off your favorite drink.
With half off any drink, this is the ideal time to try something new — because Starbucks just announced four new cold foams based on fan-favorite holiday drinks.

How to get 50% off your Starbucks this afternoon
All you have to do to unlock the discount is be a part of the Starbucks rewards program (which you should be anyway because those Stars add up to some great discounts and other perks). Then, head to your favorite Starbucks location between noon and 6 p.m. local time to redeem the “Yay Day” coupon, which you can find in the Starbucks app.
Try these 4 new holiday cold foams at Starbucks
The new holiday cold foams are inspired by drinks from the Starbucks holiday menu, meaning we want to try them all.
Peppermint Chocolate Cream Cold Foam is made with peppermint-flavored syrup and chocolate malt powder blended with Starbucks’ signature vanilla sweet cream.
Sugar Cookie Cream Cold Foam uses sugar cookie-flavored syrup blended with Starbucks’ signature vanilla sweet cream.
Chestnut Praline Cream Cold Foam is made with the flavors of caramelized chestnuts and spices blended with Starbucks’ signature vanilla sweet cream.

During the holiday season, you can add any of the four cold foams to any cold beverage at Starbucks for an additional charge. Just customize your drink in the app to add it.
Best gifts for the coffee-obsessed

Never let a cup of coffee or tea get cold again. The Ember smart mug pairs with your phone so you can set it to the perfect temperature, and then it holds it there for as long as it takes you to finish your cup.
Frothed milk is the perfect way to elevate a cuppa, and this simple handheld frother is perfect for the coffee lover who doesn’t need a cafe-quality, counter-space-hogging gadget. It works on AA batteries so it’s ready when you need it and froths any kind of milk in just minutes.
Stanley Classic The Perfect-Brew Pour Over
