One of the UK’s favourite coffee shops is getting a tough new rule – the viral Starbucks teddy bear cup is arriving here!
A new cup in the form of a cute glass teddy bear is launched in Britain today – January 15, 2026. This Starbucks teddy bear cup (also referred to as Bearista cup) looks like a small bear with a green beanie cap. The bear in his paws holds a little Starbucks cup.
Fans in the US went crazy for the Starbucks Bearista cup last year. People queued overnight. Some camped from 4am. Videos showed huge lines and chaos. Stores sold out in minutes. Soon, the Starbucks teddy bear cup hit eBay for hundreds or even thousands of pounds. The US price was about $30.
Starbucks learned from the mess. For the Starbucks bear cup UK launch, they made a strict rule. You can buy only one Starbucks Bearista cup per person. Stock is very limited. It sells while supplies last. Not every store has them. Call your local Starbucks first.
The company teased the teddy bear cup on Instagram. They posted: “This is not a drill… see you 15.01.” Fans got excited – and nervous. Many worry the same rush will hit Britain.
The UK price is not official yet. Expect around £22 to £28. It matches the US cost after exchange.
If you want this adorable Starbucks bear cup UK edition, go early today. Queues may start before doors open.
This Bearista cup makes any cold drink fun. It is cute and collectible. Many say it is the sweetest Starbucks item ever.
