Just ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2014 games this year in Brazil, Baskin Robbins Japan will be releasing a tri-colored sherbet of blue, yellow and green, aptly called the 'Trio de Janeiro.' The sherbet borrows the three colors from the Brazilian flag, which include delicious fruit flavors like kiwi, lemon and blueberry. This celebratory flavor will be available as of June 1st and it will be made available right through until the end of August.
For the big soccer event, Baskin Robbins Japan will also be upgrading its regular 'Popping Shower' ice cream flavor to the 'Popping Shower Super Goal' and offering it in five more colors than usual. The launch of this special ice cream flavor will coincide with the kick off of the FIFA World Cup on June 12th.
