You  can see more pictures of the recalled products at the CPSC web site.

They were sold in 11 ounce and 16 ounce sizes as part of one of these gift sets: Starbucks Holiday Gift Set with 2 Mugs, Starbucks Classic Hot Cocoa and Mug, Starbucks Peppermint and Classic Hot Cocoas and Mug, and Starbucks Holiday Blend Coffee and Mug.

The sets were sold online and in store at Target and Walmart, and also through Nexcom (military retail outlets) nationwide from November 2023 through January 2024 for about $10, $13, or $20 depending on the set.
