Well, if you didn’t know, it’s okay because Starbucks is here to remind you about that.
Starbucks has announced the release of their new collection for Chinese New Year (CNY) and they’re all pretty cute.
Seeing as to how it’s the Year of the Rat, you would probably have already guessed that their new collection would be rat-themed.
You’ll be able to shop for cute tumblers, mugs, and even cold cups, allowing you to sip your coffee in the most stylish way.
Fancy A Cute Rat Mug?
So if you were born in the Year of the Rat or are simply a fan of those delicate beings, you’ll definitely not want to miss out on these.

This set comes with a 3oz cup and a leafy saucer at the price of $28.90.
These red mugs are bound to bring up your spirits for CNY as it approaches us fast!
This set comes with a big version of 12oz and a smaller version of 3oz, so if you’re a family with a little kid, you can get this as a matching family set.

Take a look at the Friends collection and you’ll probably instantly be reminded of your best friends who have stuck by you all this while.

If you’re looking for something milder and less eye-catching, or rather, something that doesn’t exactly scream CNY in your face, you can still take a look at their Warmth collection or their Globe collection.
The Warmth collection features the above tumblers in duller colours but not without the cuteness of the rats brightening them up. There’s still a hint of CNY in them with the mandarin oranges on them but at least it’s not a bright red.
The 16oz blue tumbler on the left costs $26.90 while the 16oz one on its right costs $45.90. The 16oz cold cup on the far right with a rat on its lid costs $56.90.
The Globe collection features a rat glass cup that can be seen most clearly when you turn it upside down and a blue tumbler with a globe at the bottom, allowing you to shake it around every time you need something to distract you for a while. The mandarin oranges on the tumbler still show that it’s part of the CNY collection.
The 6oz glass cup costs $32.90 while the 12oz tumbler costs $28.90.
