The holidays are back, which means a new festive cup from our favorite coffee retailer, Starbucks.<\/p>\n<p>The coffee chain unleashed their holiday cups for 2017 last Wednesday. The cup features a brand new design with black, white and green coloring. A Christmas tree, doves, a stack of presents, snowflakes and a red ribbon adorn the cup, which are all placed with a large amount of white space. Starbucks is encouraging customers to get creative and fill it in with their own colors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe hope they\u2019ll color it in to represent what the holidays means to them,\u201d said Leanne Fremar, a creative director at the company.<\/p>\n<p>Starbucks said it started working on the design in January and decided to go with a color-in version because it said many customers liked to draw on them. The Seattle-based chain said most of its nearly 5,000 U.S. locations will have colored pencils available for customers to borrow.<\/p>\n<p>Customers are divided over the new design and the concept of coloring-in the cups, but overall the responses are positive.<\/p>\n<p>The sleeves are adorned with the message \u201cGive Good,\u201d encouraging customers to \u201ccelebrate all the good we give to each other and our community.\u201d According to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/news.starbucks.com\/news\/starbucks-holiday-cup-2017\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Starbucks<\/a>, giving good \u201ccan be as small as someone opening the door for you, or recognizing the people that enrich your life\u2014your child\u2019s teacher, a caregiver, a family friend.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Along with the cups, of course, come the return of their signature holiday beverages.
