It’s time to channel your inner Oz witch at Starbucks! Just in time for the Halloween season (and with a nod to the upcoming Wicked movie), Starbucks is serving up two new, magical drinks, along with a bewitching collection of themed merchandise.

Whether you’re feeling more like a Glinda or an Elphaba, these limited-edition sips and goodies are here to make your coffee run a lot more... spellbinding.

Today’s launch includes two drinks that pay homage to the witches of Wicked, a colorful new version of the Mango Dragonfruit Refresher, and a minty cold brew twist that’ll make you feel positively enchanted. But the fun doesn’t stop there. Starbucks is also dropping some must-have merch, including mugs, tumblers, and even Wicked-themed gift cards that are bound to defy gravity.

Meet the new 'Wicked' drinks at Starbucks

First up is Glinda’s Pink Potion. This one’s all about the sparkle, mixing a Mango Dragonfruit Starbucks Refresher with coconut milk, topped with strawberry cold foam, and sprinkled with candy “magic.” According to Starbucks, it’s “hand-shaken with creamy coconut milk, ice, and a scoop of real, freeze-dried dragonfruit.”

Think of it as a fruity, pink dream in a cup that’ll have you saying, “I’m not that basic, actually.”

But if you're feeling more like the misunderstood green witch, then Elphaba's Cold Brew is calling your name. This cold brew gets a sweet peppermint twist, topped with matcha cold foam and, yes, more green candy sprinkles. It’s like sipping on a chilled witch’s brew, minus the eye of newt.

The drinks hit stores today, October 22, so if you’re looking to try one, now’s your chance. And don’t forget: you’ll need some themed swag to really complete the experience.

Magical merch, mugs & more

The merch game is strong with this one. Starting November 7, Starbucks will roll out three new mugs inspired by Wicked locations, including Emerald City, Munchkinland, and Shiz University. These colorful mugs will be available as individual 14 oz ceramics or a set of three mini mugs, exclusively at Universal Theme Parks.

Not to be outdone, there’s also a new line of tumblers, featuring special Target x Starbucks designs and an Emerald City-themed silhouette. Expect them to fly off the shelves faster than Glinda's bubble.

For gift-givers (or just collectors), Starbucks is also introducing limited-edition gift cards, including a gold keychain version that requires a $50 load. So, if you want to spread a little Wicked cheer, this is your ticket.

Ready to embrace your inner witch? Grab your broomstick and head to your nearest Starbucks before these magical items disappear. Whether you’re team Glinda or team Elphaba, there’s something for every Wicked fan this season!
