The Consumer Product Safety Commission and Nestlé USA have recalled Metallic Mugs included in 2023 Holiday Starbucks-branded Gift Sets.  If these mugs are heated by microwave or by filling with with very hot liquids, they overheat and crack leading to burns and lacerations.


About 440,500 of these gift sets with mugs were sold online and in-store nationwide at Target and Walmart and through Nexcom military retail outlets.


Stop using these mugs.  For a refund, return them to the place of purchase or contact Nestlé USA at 1-800-681-1676.
