Starbucks Japan is celebrating Valentine's Day by introducing what may be its most photogenic drink yet -- a blush-hued beverage dubbed the Pink Medley Tea Latte.
This Instagram-friendly pastel pink offering is the most recent menu extension from the brand, and is only available until February 14th. Those quick enough to get their hands on this item will be able to experience its frothy and soothing flavor profile, as the drink is made from a Joyful Medley Teavana blend, which is a mix of jasmine and oolong tea. To create the latte, the tea is prepared with steam milk and form and infused with peach and strawberry flavoring, resulting in the gorgeously unique pink hue.
