Starbucks' Valentine's Day collection is launching in Japan, spreading the love through caffeine and branded products. Valentine's Day can put consumers in a tricky spot gift wise. Wanting to get something special, yet functional is a delicate balance, and those looking for ideas might be drawn to this line.
The collection arrives complete with tumblers, mugs, and water bottles, all taking on the classic pink and red colorway. Some of the standout pieces include the heart-shaped mug, which is perfect for bringing a loved one a morning coffee. Another highlight is the heart-printed mug, which features a lid with a fully functioning snow globe on top. Meanwhile, the pink water bottle makes for a more subtle option.
