Starbucks Japan's Holiday Matcha Drinks Feature Chocolate Flavors

— November 25, 2020 — Lifestyle
Green tea dessert drinks are a familiar sight at Starbucks Japan but there are new holiday matcha beverages that have been introduced for the season. The Matcha Matcha White Chocolate Frappuccino is prepared with a fragrant sauce that's said to be slightly bitter yet perfectly balanced by the sweet white chocolate syrup. Served in a way that reminds of an evergreen tree topped with snow, the Matcha Matcha White Chocolate Frappuccino is layered with crumbled matcha brownie bits and powdered sugar.

For those who love lattes, there's also a Matcha Matcha White Chocolate latte version of the beverage that can be enjoyed with a creamy base of steamed milk. Both of the new and festive matcha beverages will be available for a limited time throughout November and December in Japan.
