Just when you thought Japanese vending machines couldn’t get any more awesome, here comes an awesome-sounding dessert drink.
Move over Starbucks – there’s another coffeehouse in Tokyo adding a dazzling range of cherry blossom treats to their menu.
In an age where some people have hundreds, or even thousands, of friends on social networking sites, rustling up just three of them will get you a hefty discount.
The flowers won’t be opening from their buds for a few more weeks, but you can crack open a bottle of this special craft brew right now.
If you can’t get enough of Japan, or just happen to be the indecisive type, this mix of Yebisu Beer and Kyoto green tea is for you.
The gorgeous new release, which comes with milk pudding pieces, was unveiled at a special cherry-blossom event space in Tokyo yesterday.
The beautifully designed item looks set to be one of this spring’s most popular beverages.
The global coffeehouse chain gives us a taste of spring with two new beverages and a drinkware range containing over thirty cherry blossom-themed items.
Although they are stopping just short of calling it an actual “health cola,” Coca-Cola Plus is the latest addition to the health-oriented cola war in Japan.
Even some young Japanese tea fans mistake this mark of fine quality for insufficient cleanliness.
A spinning reel of enticing flavour possibilities was used to introduce the new star ingredient.
The global coffee house chain is squeezing one more star ingredient into their beverage lineup before the end of the year.
