It's that time of the year again already and this time Costa fans won't be disappointed.
Last year social media was filled with unhappy hot drinks lovers after the coffee chain pulled their orange hot chocolate from the menu.
But this year it's back in the form of 'caramelised orange and cream'.
It's not the only new addition as pigs and blankets mac and cheese is already getting foodies excited as well as the Christmas cheese board panini.
And if you're already excited for festive food and drinks, you haven't got long to wait.
The Christmas food and drinks menu will be in store from November 1.
Here's what's on offer:
