Japan Now Has Pancake Mochi Ice Cream



Starbucks Japan just finished up a series of winter releases that offered Christmas Cake, Santa Boots Chocolate, and even mochi Frappuccinos.
Now Starbucks Japan is offering up their first seasonal release of 2020 with the Hojicha Cream Frappuccino and the Hojicha Cream Latte.
Hojicha is a type of Japanese green tea that's roasted over into a reddish-brown hue, and has a bolder smokier flavor profile than other green teas. The new Hojicha Cream Frappuccino combines 5 different blends of hojicha and combines it with white mocha syrup, whipped cream, and brown sugar for a creamy take on roasted green tea. Those who prefer a hot beverage can try the Hojicha Cream Latte, which uses the same ingredients.
Both beverages will be available at Starbucks throughout Japan from January 9th until January 16th.
