The holiday season can actually start now: Seasonal drinks recently returned to the menu at Starbucks, and Red Cup Day is upon us. The annual promotion gives customers a free 16-ounce reusable red cup, which also nets you a small discount on future orders, with the purchase of a holiday beverage. Here’s how to get yours on Thursday, Nov. 14.

How to get your free red cup from Starbucks

To take advantage of Red Cup Day, purchase any size holiday beverage from a participating Starbucks on November 14. (If you aren’t sure where to find this ubiquitous chain, use the store locator.)

Orders placed in store, at a drive-thru, through the Starbucks app, or using Starbucks Delivery via Uber Eats, Door Dash, and GrubHub are all eligible—fees will be waived for delivery orders made using the Starbucks app.

The only other catch is that you must order a fall or winter holiday beverage, so your drip coffee or standard latte won’t qualify. Here’s the list of eligible drinks, which can be made hot, iced, or blended:

  • Apple Crisp Nondairy Cream Chai Tea Latte

  • Apple Crisp Oatmilk Macchiato

  • Apple Crisp Oatmilk Shaken Espresso

  • Caramel Brulée Latte

  • Chestnut Praline Latte

  • Cran-Merry Orange Refresher

  • Cran-Merry Lemonade Refresher

  • Cran-Merry Drink

  • Gingerbread Oatmilk Chai

  • Hot Chocolate

  • Pecan Crunch Oatmilk Latte

  • Peppermint Hot Chocolate

  • Peppermint Mocha

  • Peppermint White Hot Chocolate

  • Pumpkin Cream Chai Tea Latte

  • Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew

  • Pumpkin Spice Latte

  • Salted Pecan Crunch Cold Brew

  • Sugar Cookie Almondmilk Latte

  • White Hot Chocolate

Once you have your reusable red cup, you can bring it with you to get $0.10 off future beverage orders (plus 25 bonus stars if you’re a Starbucks Rewards member).
