According to Starbucks

For many coffee-drinking folks, the line between the rest of the year and the holiday season is marked by the arrival of the red Starbucks cups and the special beverage recipes with peppermint and pumpkin spice. But when does the beginning of the holiday season occur? Well, according to Starbucks, it depends on the year and, no surprise, the red cups arrive earlier and earlier each year.
