Embrace the Fall with New Cool Sweet Potato Beverages at Starbucks
As September rolls in, signaling the gradual transition from summer to fall, Starbucks Coffee Japan is excited to launch two delightful beverages: the
Torori Mizuimo Beni Haruka Frappuccino® and the
Torori Mizuimo Beni Haruka Mousse Tea Latte. Available from September 2, 2026, at Starbucks locations nationwide (excluding select stores), these drinks embody the warmth and nostalgia of the autumn season.
The new offerings celebrate the beloved sweet potato, particularly the Beni Haruka variety known for its rich, syrupy sweetness. As the weather begins to cool—yet summer’s warmth lingers—Starbucks invites customers to savor an innovative twist on the traditional baked sweet potato experience. The concept “Chilled Torori Mizuimo” highlights the luxurious, creamy texture and sweetness that comes alive when the sweet potato is served cold, providing a comforting glimpse of autumn amid late summer's fading heat.
Two Unique Beverages for Autumn Enjoyment
Torori Mizuimo Beni Haruka Frappuccino®
This Frappuccino is crafted using the renowned Beni Haruka sweet potato, celebrated for its smooth, luscious paste. Complemented by a refreshing milk base, each sip delivers a cool, rich sweetness that melts in your mouth—ideal for those warm early fall days. The drink is topped with a delightful whipped cream layer drizzled with a baked sweet potato flavor sauce, adding a hint of roasted aroma. To enhance this luxurious experience, crunchy chips mimicking the caramelized syrup from a baked sweet potato are sprinkled on top, offering a delightful contrast of textures as you indulge in the creamy, chilled sweetness.
Torori Mizuimo Beni Haruka Mousse Tea Latte
This beverage features a meticulously chilled paste of the Beni Haruka sweet potato, blended with a tea made primarily from Darjeeling and Assam, layered with a fluffy mousse reminiscent of sweet potato flavor. The airy mousse provides a light mouthfeel that beautifully complements the indulgent sweet potato paste, creating a symphony of flavors as you stir. The vibrant aroma of Darjeeling and the rich essence of Assam tea harmonize with the sweet potato's sweetness, resulting in a refreshing milk tea experience—perfect for welcoming the upcoming fall season.
The Unique Transformation of Chilled Baked Sweet Potatoes
Baked sweet potatoes are known to change in texture and flavor when chilled. Unlike the soft and fluffy sensation of a freshly baked sweet potato, chilling converts it into a creamy, moist delight that can be savored in a new way. These beverages have been curated with this unique experience in mind, giving customers a chance to enjoy the deliciousness of chilled sweet potatoes—known as “Chilled Torori Mizuimo.”
Sweet Potato Cake to Complement the Beverages
In addition to the drinks, Starbucks also introduces a
Baked Sweet Potato Cake featuring Beni Haruka and Anno Sweet Potatoes, designed to be enjoyed chilled. This cake beautifully combines the light sweetness of Beni Haruka with the rich, syrupy flavor of Anno sweet potatoes, creating a delightful complexity in each bite. Enjoying this cake chilled accentuates its creamy, syrupy texture and rich sweetness, while pairing with the cool sweet potato beverages amplifies the overall indulgent experience. Alternatively, warming the cake brings out the enticing aroma of freshly baked sweet potatoes, highlighted by the soft, gooey sweetness at its center and a pleasantly caramelized surface. This allows for versatile enjoyment—choose either chilled or warm, depending on your mood and desired pairing.
