And the mystery Frappuccino flavor is … ?
As readers of our site may be aware, Halloween has become an increasingly big event in Japan in recent years. And this trick-or-treat season, Starbucks Japan has apparently decided to add to the excitement with a limited-edition Halloween drink that will be available for just seven days. The catch is, they’re not announcing what flavor the drink is.
That’s right, Starbucks Japan is now serving a Halloween Frappuccino drink, but they’re purposely not advertising the flavor of the drink, calling it the Halloween Mystery Frappuccino. Naturally, we just had to find out what the mystery flavor is, so we headed to a Starbucks to order the special drink the day it was released!
