Discover the New Afternoon Tea Spiced Chai Tea Latte
The popular tea brand Afternoon Tea, operated by Ivy Company, is collaborating with FamilyMart to introduce an exciting new beverage: the
Chai Tea Latte. Launching nationwide on
January 20, 2026, this beverage promises to bring warmth and flavor to the chilly winter days ahead. The Chai Tea Latte will be available at approximately
16,400 FamilyMart locations across Japan, offering a perfect blend of spice and sweetness.
A Perfect Winter Beverage
Afternoon Tea has been known for its delightful range of products at FamilyMart since 2019, including various sweets, breads, frappés, and beverages. The chai latte is particularly special as it marks the first chai beverage under the Afternoon Tea brand. Chai, an Indian-origin milk tea, is traditionally brewed with tea, milk, and a medley of spices, yielding a rich and aromatic drink.
The Chai Tea Latte features
50% fresh milk combined with a blend of spices—ginger, cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg—creating a beverage that not only warms the body but also delights the senses. With its spicy aroma and creamy sweetness followed by deep tea undertones, it’s designed to evoke the comforting sensation of enjoying chai in its traditional form.
Behind the Creation
According to the product development team at FamilyMart, the motivation for creating this Chai Tea Latte stemmed from the unforgettable taste of chai experienced at an Afternoon Tea TEAROOM. They aimed to replicate that enjoyment in a chilled cup format so that more customers could savor the delightful combination of spices and the richness of milk and tea. This chai latte is intended to be a go-to drink for anyone looking to uplift their mood during the cold seasons.
