The newest McCafe drink on the menu at McDonald’s Japan is making its debut thanks to a collaboration with Godiva. The premium Godiva Chocolate Espresso Frappe and Macaron is a feast for the eyes of chocolate lovers, as it combines a chocolatey blend with a chocolate whipped cream topping, a generous drizzle of Belgian high-cocoa-butter couverture chocolate syrup and a macaron.
The newest coffee-based drink, now available across all McCafe locations in Japan, blends cocoa powder, milk and an espresso-infused dark chocolate cocoa mass to create a rich and creamy coffee-chocolate treat.
The McCafe drink created with the Belgian chocolatier boasts its own cup that unites the logos of both partners within a heart shape.
