The 8 best beverages to buy at Costco

As we’ve stated before, Costco is arguably the single best one-stop-shop for bulk groceries and that convenience is especially welcome during the holiday season. Costco has no limitations when it comes to the sheer breadth of its products, and when it comes to beverages, they truly run the gamut. From coffees and teas to sodas and plant-based milks, Costco has you fully covered when it comes to your drink needs, for both the holiday season and beyond. 

Here, we’ve outlined some of our favorite options (and deals). You really can’t go wrong with these items, which  appeal to any and all dietary restrictions, preferences or tastes. Bonus? They all taste terrific — and they’re all fantastic deals, too. 

Have these on hand this holiday season and your guests (and you) are sure to be very pleased with the selection of beverages in the house.

No matter if you’re purposely eschewing dairy milk or if you’re just in the mood to test out this nondairy milk as it soars in popularity, this super affordable pack of six (!) cartons of oat milk is a great deal. The Costco website notes that it’s “kosher, non GMO, USDA Organic and 100% vegan” and that it’s “made with super tasty rolled oats.”
