There are plenty of new sips and returning faves to get you in the spirit.

The coffee chain unveiled its at-home holiday offerings on Monday, Oct. 12, which is the same day they began rolling out nationwide to grocery stores. One of the options making a comeback is Starbucks' Instant Peppermint Mocha Latte, which is inspired by the brand's winter menu item and blends of real milk with 100% arabica coffee. You can get a 5-count pack of the instant beverage for $7.99. Starbucks Peppermint Mocha Iced Espresso Classic, which features espresso, milk, and flavors of peppermint and chocolate, is also back this year. A 40-ounce bottle will cost you $4.99.

The CDC recommends avoiding unnecessary errands and your contact with others where possible. You'll also want to make sure you wear a face mask and sanitize or wash your hands after touching any packaging.
