Calpico
Keep refreshed and get a glimpse of Japanese high school life with these charming bottle designs.
Yogurt-like beverages combine McDonald’s shake know-how with one of Japan’s favorite summertime flavors.
It’s the name that turns many English-speakers off, but even people in Japan sometimes take issue the way Calpis can linger in your mouth.
One of Japan’s most distinctive flavours is blended into a McDonald’s milkshake for a limited time.
What’s white and sweet and makes you feel happy all over? Well, Mister Donut Japan’s new line of doughnuts that has just been released this week certainly fits that description! While Krispy Kreme Japan may have added a little zing to their doughnuts by combining them with ice cream, Mister Donut has come out with a new series of white doughnuts created in collaboration with Calpis — known as Calpico in some countries, perhaps due to its unfortunate pronunciation — the popular yogurty-tasting white drink loved by people of all ages in Japan.
So, let’s see what delectable milky-white treats Mister Donut has in store for us this summer!
