Starbucks Japan celebrates sakura season with a full bloom cherry blossom berry Frappuccino
Spring in Japan means a deluge of cherry blossom themed treats to celebrate the season with, and Starbucks Japan’s sakura Frappuccino is always a sight to behold.
They’ve already launched their 2022 lineup with a chilled cup drink in convenience stores and supermarkets, and now their instore menu is finally getting the sakura treatment with a brand new spring duo.
This year’s Frappuccino creation, the ‘Sakura Strawberry Shiratama Frappuccino’, may be their most elaborate yet. Shiratama is a type of small mochi which is often white, but in the spirit of the season the shiratama used for this offering is a light pink colour. Sakura petal powder and strawberry juice have been combined with a milk base and blended with ice, along with the shiratama.

The whipped cream peak is sprinkled with sakura strawberry chocolate shavings and topped with nama yatsuhashi, a Kyoto specialty.
But it’s not that warm out just yet, so a hot drink seems like a necessary addition to any spring menu. For the 2022 lineup, Starbucks are releasing the ‘Sakura Bloomed Milk Latte’. This drink has a sakura tree design in the milk foam made with chocolate sauce and sakura strawberry chocolate shavings. The beverage itself is made with sakura strawberry sauce stirred into warm milk.

Cherry blossom food will also grace the menu, such as some vividly pink sakura doughnuts.

Another bonus for the season is the option to add the ‘sakura tree’ topping to other drinks on the menu to spring-ify them.
The latte will be around from 15th February until 15th March, while the Frappuccino and doughnut will stick around until 12th April. But you’ll only have a month to experience the beverage in this exact form, as the Frappuccino toppings will change from 16th March onward.
