Starbucks Japan recently announced its annual Christmas collection and this year, the focus is on toasted white chocolate beverages.
Last month, the chain introduced a pair of drinks inspired by the chocolate-covered strawberries enjoyed at Christmas markets in Germany. The all-new toasted white chocolate beverages transport consumers to the United States, yet the Toasted White Chocolate Frappuccino is said to have "a taste unique to Japan." This special treat is made with a base of white chocolate syrup and toasted cookies, plus whipped cream and indulgent toppings like white chocolate-coated marshmallows, toasted baked white chocolate pieces and sparkling golden sugar. Those who want to feel cozy and warm will enjoy the Toasted White Chocolate Mocha, which explores how well white chocolate and espresso play together.
