Happy Christmas drinking, you guys!

Last year, when Starbucks featured a minimalist red cup, the company invited customers to add their own decorations and post the results on social media. The marketing team then whittled down their favorites and asked them to mail in their cups to see if their design could be replicated tens of thousands of times.
The winning designs all feature white marker on a red cup, and have wintry elements like snowflakes, Christmas lights, candy canes, and Santa's sleigh. The winning artists come from countries like the U.S., South Korea, Russia, and Indonesia. All but one design comes on the red cup itself; one is on the clear cup designated for cold drinks, in case you live somewhere hot and need your coffee iced. (Unsurprisingly, maybe, that designer hails from Los Angeles...)
