You choose the box, the box chooses the bear
Collectors know it as a blind box, while Starbucks names it a surprise box. Because the carton is sealed, you won't learn which character is inside until it's opened.
The first Bearista, a glass bear in a green beanie, arrived in November 2025 and was gone from US stores in less than a day. Starbucks calls this holiday release its biggest Bearista drop so far. To pick your bear instead, see the green beanie Bearista cup, the pink strawberry bear cup or the Snoopy glass cold cup.

The details
Before you open the box
Which Starbucks bear cup will I get?
One of the five, picked at random. The box is sealed, so nobody can choose the character first. More boxes mean better odds at the set, though repeats can happen.
What is inside the Bearista surprise box?
One glass Bearista cold cup that holds 591 ml (20 oz), with its lid and straw. Starbucks also gives each character a personality card.
How rare is the golden Bearista?
Goldie is the rare bear of the five. Starbucks has not published the odds, so treat a golden bear as a lucky pull.
When did the Bearista surprise box come out?
Starbucks released it in US coffeehouses on November 10, 2026, with a limit of two boxes per customer in store.
Is the original Bearista cup coming back?
Starbucks has said the original green beanie Bearista returns to US stores on December 1.
