Magical Autumnal Cafe Drinks

The Starbucks Japan Mera Meera Frappuccino is Here for Halloween

— October 11, 2024 — Lifestyle
The Starbucks Japan Mera Meera Frappuccino is a limited-edition refreshment being launched by the cafe brand to provide consumers with a way to celebrate the season in a decidedly delicious way. The drink is arriving in anticipation of Halloween and features blueberry and raspberry powder that combine to give the beverage a chromatic look. The drink is thus reported to have a mysterious appearance that looks like swaying flames, while the use of condensed milk flavor will allow the aforementioned berry notes to shine through.

The Starbucks Japan Mera Meera Frappuccino comes topped with whipped cream and darkly colors chunks for a final touch of magic. The drink will be on the menu at participating locations in Japan from October 11 through 31, 2024.
