The coffee lovers have been grappling with the “Bearista” cold cups that are taking the internet by storm.
The Glass Starbucks Bearista Cold Cup has drawn unprecedented buzz online; it’s a cup with a teddy bear shape with its own Starbucks beverage.
The coffee beverage company shared the post on their Instagram handle, which has garnered over 24 million views, with 600,000 likes and more than 14,000 comments. They captioned the post, “Who’s getting a bearista cup on 11/6 Imk.”
Netizens flooded the comments section after the post went viral, and they’re simply obsessed with the new design, even celebrities like Josh Peck could not hold them back. He commented, “Cauuuuuuute.”
Another user jumped in, “There won’t be near enough and people who do get there will hoard them for resale. Should be a purchase limit.”
A third one commented, "Will be nearly imp[ossible to find/get!"
The viral bear cups are available for purchase in-store at Starbucks coffeehouses “for a limited time, while supplies last,” as notified on the Starbucks website.
While, Instagram users flocked again to the comments on another Starbucks post, showing the Bearista cup as well as a new Starbucks Hello Kitty plush, expressing frustration at how quickly the popular product ran out of stock.
One such user wrote, ”puts a 6-hour meeting on the calendar tomorrow AM so I have enough time to track one down.”
Another one chimed in, “Why do we hype these up then give stores only 1 to 2 to sell? Our store literally received 1 bear cup.”
Another commenter wrote, "I think I have a better chance at winning the lottery, than I do obtaining this cute bear cup."
Other coffee giant merchandise on sale for the holiday season includes the White Ribbon Tumbler, the Gingerbread Cookie Tumbler, the White Pleated Mug, the Holiday Puppy Tumbler, the Starbucks Christmas Mug, and more.
