Starbucks Japan has launched another themed beverage in the spirit of the Halloween season, this time introducing the ‘Purple Halloween Frappuccino.’ The beverage uses flavors of murasaki imo, a type of purple sweet potato, to craft a special purple sweet potato powder and a purple sweet potato vanilla sauce. The ‘Melty Raspberry in Halloween Cake’ is another item on Starbucks' menu for Halloween. The chain claims that it has a "slightly mysterious" appearance, combining flavors of chocolate cake and raspberry filling to resemble blood spilling from an open wound.
The ‘Melty Raspberry in Halloween Cake’ costs 290 yen, while the ‘Purple Halloween Frappuccino’ will be available through October 31, priced at 690 yen for a tall. If you're looking for more Halloween-themed offerings, Starbucks Japan has just debuted a brand-new line of drinkware featuring black cats.
