Costa has said they will reveal more Christmas favourites later in the year, but have kept tight lipped about which treats will be returning.
The much-loved Gingerbread Cream Latte makes a triumphant return for autumn, giving the Costa Coffee classic latte a generous dash of gingerbread syrup with cream topping featuring an adorable mini gingerbread man.
The chain say it’s a perfect pairing for wintery walks and long overdue catch-ups with friends.
Hot chocolate lovers need to look no further than the chain’s Black Forest Hot Chocolate & Cream.
Drink is described as beautifully rich creamy chocolate complete with mouth-watering cherry sauce drizzle and shimmery chocolate curls, sure to win the affection of any chocolate fan.

The fan favourite almost vanished forever, but a national outcry and petition from fans in 2016 sealed its return place at the top.
Those looking for an autumnal twist of their beloved Cappuccino can opt for the Cinnamon Spiced Cappuccino.
With its trio of blended spices, cinnamon, nutmeg and star anise, this winter-warmer is said to leave fans feeling warm from the inside out.
The festive drink can be made vegan by switching to a milk alternative, including coconut, almond or oat milk.
Costa has also slashed prices across its drinks range due to a cut in VAT, from 20 per cent to five per cent across the hospitality industry.
Fans were delighted over the new drinks, with many praising the Black Forest hot chocolate in particular
