McDonald's is introducing a noticeable change that anyone ordering a drink will notice. McDonald's is introducing new festive McCafé cups this holiday season.

The cups, featuring a bold design of neon red and yellow Christmas-themed icons, will be available starting December 8. In addition to the festive look, the cups now include a QR code that allows customers to donate directly to Ronald McDonald House Charities UK, supporting families with ill children during the holidays.

In a move towards sustainability, McDonald’s is also making all McCafé cups and lids, including the festive versions, 100% recyclable. This change aligns with the company’s ongoing goal to ensure all customer packaging is recyclable or compostable.

Alongside the updated cups, McDonald’s is adding two seasonal drinks to its menu: the Galaxy Caramel latte and the Galaxy Caramel hot chocolate.

Another Christmas menu highlight this year is the Terry’s chocolate orange pie - filled with a Terry’s chocolate orange flavoured chocolate ganache. A fan favourite, the cheese melt dippers with a rich tomato dip, have also returned.

The breaded cheese dippers are made with Camembert.
