In the Swifties world, fans are already eyeing that there’s something brewing between the two. If you’re a fan, you probably noticed a few clues on Starbucks and Taylor’s social media posts. The coffee emporium tweeted “It’s Red Season”, together with sparkle, scarf, coffee, and heart emojis.
While the singer used the same phrase on her Instagram post, she also declared it to be the “Red Season.”

The coffee giant replied with Swiftie hints saying “We know all too well how exciting this time of year is, and we’ll forever & always love it. Our red holiday cups and drinks are back!” Although fans are used to Starbucks rolling out red cups during the holiday season, their use of Taylor song titles “Forever & Always” and “All Too Well” gave away big clues.
