For the first time ever, Starbucks Japan is adding a cola flavor to its beverage lineup with the Starbucks Cola Frappuccino. This retro-inspired beverage mimics the classic cola float and it's infused with lime flavor that pairs well with the vanilla-flavored whipped cream.
Also new at Starbucks Japan is the Creamy & Sweet Milk Coffee, which has a rich coffee layer, plus fresh cream and white chocolate-flavored syrup for sweetness.
These new drinks are launching alongside a retro American range of food: Mixed Parfait Cake, Waffle Sandwich Bacon Egg Cheese and Malasada Custard Cream in the form of a donut. There's also a limited-edition range of pins, drinking glasses and mugs with the same vintage aesthetic.
