Some unionized Starbucks workers entered day five of striking on Nov. 18, the same day the chain released its new Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate.
Starbucks is bringing back its Chestnut Praline Latte, and fans are saying the same thing as the release date is just around the corner. On Nov. 6, Starbucks rolled out the majority of its 2025 holiday menu. It included the return of its beloved Peppermint Mocha Latte, Caramel Brulée Latte, Iced Sugar Cookie Latte and Iced Gingerbread Chai.
More than 1,000 Starbucks workers will go on strike at about 65 stores scattered across states as far-flung as California, Texas and Pennsylvania, Starbucks Workers United (SWU), the union representing the workers, told ABC News in a statement.
Starbucks Workers United said its strike may extend past Nov. 13 if the coffeehouse chain continues to ignore their demands.
Given the company’s reputation as a well-known, resilient consumer brand, this discrepancy prompts valid inquiries about the factors contributing to its downturn.
Starbucks introduced a new frappucino drink for the 2025 holiday season. The exclusive Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate isn't available just anywhere.
