The 20oz Bearista Glass Bear with Strawberry Topper, which sold out instantly in the U.S., arrives in Hong Kong on July 13, 2026, with a combo deal that adds a Venti iced drink for only HK$20.
Hong Kong Starbucks fans, mark your calendars. The highly anticipated 20oz Bearista Glass Bear with Strawberry Topper—a pink, bear-shaped glass cup that sparked a frenzy and sold out across the United States—is finally making its debut in Hong Kong. Starting Monday, July 13, 2026, the collectible cup will be available at all Starbucks locations across Hong Kong and Macau, but supplies are limited. The real draw? A limited-time combo offer that lets customers add a Venti iced handcrafted beverage for just HK$20, turning a simple purchase into a summer steal.
The Cup That Broke the Internet
This isn’t just any reusable cup. The 20oz Bearista Glass Bear with Strawberry Topper features a translucent pink glass body shaped like a seated bear, complete with a light-colored baseball cap emblazoned with the Starbucks logo in red. At the center of the cup sits the brand’s iconic green siren emblem. But the showstopper is the detachable strawberry-shaped straw topper—a detailed, three-dimensional accessory that transforms the bear into a whimsical, berry-crowned character. The set also includes a matching pink straw, making it as photogenic as it is functional.
The cup originally launched in the U.S. market, where it sold out rapidly and dominated social media feeds. Now, Hong Kong collectors and coffee lovers alike have a chance to snag one—but only if they act fast.
The Combo Deal That Makes Sense
Starbucks is offering two purchasing options. The glass cup alone retails for HK$228. However, the smarter buy is the “Super Value Combo” at HK$248, which includes the cup plus any Venti iced handcrafted beverage. That means for just an extra HK$20, customers can walk away with a drink that typically costs HK$40 to HK$50 on its own.
Important note: The combo excludes limited-time and seasonal beverages, such as the newest Frappuccino® offerings. Stick to standard menu items like iced Americano, iced latte, or iced matcha latte to maximize the deal.
More Than Just a Cup: New Drinks Arrive
Alongside the glass cup launch, Starbucks Hong Kong is rolling out two major beverage updates.
Cloudy Americano Makes Its Local Debut
First introduced in other Asian markets to widespread social media buzz, the Cloudy Americano is now available in Hong Kong for the first time. The drink is crafted by aerating freshly pulled espresso shots to create a dense, golden foam that sits atop the coffee. The result is a velvety, layered texture that flows gently when poured over ice, offering a smoother and more complex mouthfeel than a standard iced Americano. Customers can choose between Starbucks’ classic espresso or a lighter roast for a milder profile.
Banana Frappuccino® Series Returns
Three fan-favorite flavors are back for the summer:
- Banana Avocado Cream Frappuccino® – A creamy blend of banana, milk, and avocado, delivering a nutty, smooth finish.
- Banana Chocolate Frappuccino® – Rich chocolate sauce meets sweet banana milk for a decadent, satisfying treat.
- Banana Wild Berry Frappuccino® – A tangy, fruit-forward option that balances banana sweetness with bright berry notes.
All three are available exclusively as Frappuccino® beverages.
Double Discounts for Early Birds and Night Owls
From July 8 to July 20, 2026, Starbucks is running a “Game Day Cheer” promotion with two discount windows:
- Morning Boost (6:00 AM – 11:00 AM): Spend HK$68 or more on regular-priced handcrafted beverages and food in a single transaction, and receive an instant HK$8 discount.
- Evening Hangout (5:00 PM onwards): Buy any two regular-priced Grande or Venti Frappuccino® beverages (excluding limited-edition flavors) and get HK$20 off instantly.
These offers are valid at all Hong Kong and Macau Starbucks stores during the promotional period, which runs from July 8 to July 20, 2026.
What This Means for Collectors and Coffee Lovers
The arrival of the Bearista glass cup signals Starbucks’ continued strategy of leveraging limited-edition merchandise to drive foot traffic and social media engagement. For Hong Kong consumers, the combo deal offers rare value in a market where branded drinkware often comes with a premium price tag. With the cup’s U.S. sellout history, local fans should expect high demand and quick sellouts.
For those looking to maximize their visit, pairing the combo with the morning or evening discounts could yield significant savings. The return of the Banana Frappuccino® series also gives returning customers a reason to revisit old favorites while trying the new Cloudy Americano.
How to Prepare
- Go early: The cup launches Monday, July 13. Visit your nearest Starbucks before noon for the best chance.
- Choose the combo: Opt for the HK$248 deal to get the cup and a Venti iced drink.
- Check exclusions: The combo does not apply to seasonal or limited-time beverages.
- Stack discounts: If visiting during the morning or evening promotional windows, combine offers for extra savings.
For those who miss out, Starbucks has not announced a restock date. Given the cup’s track record in the U.S., this may be a one-time drop. Act quickly, or risk watching others sip in style.
