US beverage company Starbucks Viet Nam recently announced that it will open two stores this month, bringing its total in the country to 23.

The company said that two stores will be opened in Ha Noi and HCM City in November. The store in Ha Noi will be at Vincom Plaza Pham Ngoc Thach while the store in HCM City will be on Nguyen Van Troi Street. Starbucks opened its first store in Viet Nam in February 2013.

For Christmas, the company also announces the return of its handcrafted holiday beverages.

Along with the special Christmas blend coffee, new food and beverage will be offered with an exclusive selection of curated merchandise for gifting. This year, in addition to returning favourites Peppermint Mocha and Toffee Nut Crunch Latte, Starbucks will introduce a new handcrafted beverage for the holiday season – red ribbon green tea latte.

Another special thing for this year, Starbucks will introduce red cups which feature designs created by customers with 13 distinct cups in stores. — VNS
