What Is the Starbucks Birthday Drink in Canada?
The birthday drink is not a special menu item. It’s a free reward given through the Starbucks Rewards program.

- Any handcrafted beverage (hot or iced)
- A Frappuccino® blended beverage
- Cold brew or Refreshers® drink
- A bakery or food item
- A bottled beverage available in-store
The reward must be used on your actual birthday date.

To receive the Starbucks birthday reward in Canada, you must:
- Join Starbucks Rewards at least 7 days before your birthday.

- Make at least one Star-earning purchase before your birthday each year.
If you don’t make a purchase that earns Stars during the year, you won’t receive the birthday reward.

Redeeming is simple:
- Open the Starbucks app on your birthday.
- Go to the “Rewards” section.
