One of the best ways to beat the heat of summer is with a refreshing, fruit-flavored treat and Japan's FamilyMart convenience store chain is now serving a Melon Gelato Frappe as a refreshing chilled beverage. The melon-flavored drink is elevated with frothed milk, which is said to create a rich, gelato-like texture.
Frappes, the chilled drinks sold in tall, clear cups are immensely popular with consumers in the summer in parts of Asia and beyond, especially during a time of year when people are craving refreshing alternatives to hot coffee. While the flavors of many frappes are based on popular desserts, FamilyMart's Melon Gelato Frappe boasts a simple flavor inspired by a naturally sweet fruit.
