Starbucks Spreads Holiday Cheer in Japan with Pistachio Frappuccino

Starbucks Japan recently unveiled its latest festive concoctions for the holiday season – the Melty White Pistachio Frappuccino and Melty White Pistachio Mocha. These limited-edition drinks bring a unique pistachio twist to Starbucks’ Christmas menu.

The Melty White Pistachio Frappuccino blends fragrant pistachio flavor with sweet white chocolate sauce and milky base. It is topped with a special “Merry Cream” made of mascarpone and white chocolate, adding an extra layer of rich creaminess. The Melty White Pistachio Mocha features similar pistachio and white mocha flavors, combined with a shot of espresso and steamed milk.

Both holiday beverages are finished with crushed pistachio cookie pieces and white chocolate powder, creating a wintery tree-like decoration. They capture the essence of Christmas nuts and sweets in drinkable form.

The pistachio-infused drinks will be available from November 29th through December 25th at Starbucks locations across Japan. The Frappuccino comes in a Tall size for 678 yen (about $5 USD) and the Mocha is offered hot or iced in Short to Venti sizes ranging 540 to 680 yen (around $4-5 USD).

These limited-edition beverages join Starbucks Japan’s ever-growing Christmas menu, including returning favorites like the Gingerbread Latte and Eggnog Latte. Customers can enjoy the Melty White Pistachio drinks alongside festive holiday sweets and merchandise. It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas at Starbucks Japan!
