“We Are Starbucks Coffee Rabbits — Living Somewhere in Coffee Tree Forests” is the theme for this new collection.

The coffeehouse chain has found a heartwarming way for us to all be a Santa this Christmas.
Add to your Starbucks cup collection with these new, adorable, black cat-motif mugs, tumblers, and bottles!
