If you’re as big of a fan of Starbucks as you are of traditional Japanese aesthetics, mark your maps.
Starbucks
Starbucks gives us a delicious reminder that sakura sweets are different from cherry ones.
Robust flavours of fruit and flowers steal the limelight in this limited-edition seasonal beverage.
Travel mugs, cups and glasses adorned with pink blooms sit alongside cherry blossom mocktails for a limited time.
Real extract from the trees gives you a sense of what it’s like to drink the cherry blossoms.
The coffeehouse shows it knows a thing or two (or five) about teas too with its newest roasted green tea dessert drinks.
We visit the award-winning Starbucks to see if it’s still worthy of its title after a facelift.
