Starbucks is giving away World Cup collectibles and bringing back the a viral cup

If your World Cup collection is still a work in progress, Starbucks is here to help. Following the hype surrounding McDonald’s recent cup releases, Starbucks has introduced a fresh way to celebrate the pitch: free, limited-edition cup sleeves modeled after soccer captains' armbands.

How to score your sleeve

According to a company press release, getting your hands on one of these collectibles is simple. Just head to a participating Starbucks location across the U.S. and order a brewed coffee or brewed tea. The company states these giveaways are intended to build community and bring the intensity of the World Cup directly into their coffeehouses.

The Bearista Cup returns

In addition to the sleeves, the viral Bearista Cup is making a comeback, this time rocking a soccer-themed hat. Note that this specific item will be available exclusively online at the Starbucks Shop for Starbucks Rewards Reserve tier members, and it will only be available while supplies last.

Tournament details
