Starbucks Released the 2016 Holiday Red Cups & They Are Amazing

The last couple of days have been hard, not going to lie, but it seems like Starbucks knows exactly what to do to cheer people up: bring some holiday cheer. So, that is exactly what they did when releasing their new 2016 Holiday red cups, only one thing is different… There are 13 different designs. 

But that is not all that is special. According to Sharon Rothstein, Starbucks global chief marketing officer, “We hope that this year’s red holiday cup designs express the shared spirit of the holidays as told by our customers,” so instead of having the cups designed by members of the Starbucks team,  13 customer designs were selected from six countries to “represent the collective spirit of the holidays around the world”, the Starbucks press release states.

Here are all of the different customers and that created these beautiful designs. 

Now, if that doesn’t give you holiday cheer then I don’t know what will.
