We already knew the latest drink would be called the Holiday Spice Flat White, but now we know what's in it. Starbucks is giving us all a post-Turkey Day present, because the latest limited-edition latte is available at your local Sbux beginning today. Now, after some serious thumb-twiddling, it looks like we'll finally get to try the new beverage. But we didn't know when, and we didn't know what it would taste like. The result is a drink that smells and tastes instantly like Christmas, but in a subtle way that isn't overpowering.Back in October, we found out that Starbucks would offer a brand new, holiday-themed, flat white latte at some point during the festive season. Along with a rich Christmas Blend Espresso Roast ristretto shot, Starbucks' Holiday Spice Flat White also comes infused with a blend of festive spices, including ground sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, clove, and tangerine sugar. It's foamy, velvety, smooth, and, like most espresso-based drinks, gives you a gentle yet much-needed energy boost. Much like a cappuccino, the Flat White is usually heavy on the espresso and steamed milk, and doesn't come with any flavored syrups. Not familiar with the Flat White? Allow me to break it down. I don't blame them - it's good to have something to look forward to, and the Holiday Spice Flat White is definitely worth the wait. While we've been sipping on the warm, soul-quenching likes of the Peppermint Mocha and Gingerbread Latte since the beginning of November, Starbucks decided to make us wait a bit for the newest drink in its holiday lineup. 30, and if you ask me, that's not a moment too soon. The Starbucks Holiday Spice Flat White is available starting Nov. Though we've known about its existence for a couple of weeks now, the elusive new beverage didn't hit stores along with the rest of the red cup holiday drinks that have become even more synonymous with holiday joy than visions of sugar plums that once danced through our heads. The holidays can't officially start until Starbucks rolls out its much anticipated red cups, and this year, the coffee chain has an extra special gift it's handing out: the Starbucks Holiday Spice Flat White.
