If you can't decide between a yogurt parfait for breakfast or a sugary blended coffee beverage like the new frappuccino from Starbucks, you no longer have to make that difficult choice. Starbucks Japan locations will be serving a yogurt frappuccino topped with fruit. The yummy seasonal treat will only be available for a limited time, until June 2, 2015.
The new frappuccino for spring and early summer has a yogurt base that is blended with almonds and topped with orange, strawberry, yellow peach or white peach "fruit jellies." It is also topped with whipped cream and crushed nuts. Dubbed the Fruits-on-top Yogurt Frappuccinos with Crushed Nuts, a tall size costs 630 yen, or about $5.30 USD.
