Popcorn with espresso is the new must-try drink of the year.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Back in September, Starbucks opened a new type of branch in Tokyo\u2019s Shinjuku Marui department store called Starbucks Reserve Cafe<\/strong>. Located on the second floor, the cafe fuses Milanese bar culture with Japanese kissaten (traditional coffeehouse) aesthetics to create a modern cafe-bakery, and since its opening it\u2019s been incredibly popular with customers.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now, the cafe is attracting even more attention, with the announcement that it will be selling a range of exclusive drinks for winter. The first new drink is the Caramel Melts Frappuccino<\/strong>, which will be sold in a Tall size only, priced at 884 yen (US$5.61) for takeout and 900 yen for dine-in.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This exciting beverage is said to offer \u201ca new coffee experience\u201d, as espresso is poured over caramel popcorn placed at the bottom of the cup<\/strong>. This allows you to enjoy popcorn infused with espresso<\/strong>, and it\u2019s layered with popcorn-flavoured whipped cream<\/strong>, caramel sauce<\/strong>, and a salted pretzel<\/strong>, for a melty combination of sweet and crunchy layers that resembles a luxurious dessert.<\/p>\n

\u25bc Those preferring something hot can opt for the Caramel Melts Latte<\/strong> (Tall size only; 805 yen for takeout or 820 yen for dine-in).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Caramel Melts Latte is a high-quality drink made with a fragrant popcorn-flavoured latte<\/strong>, layered with popcorn-flavoured whipped cream<\/strong>, caramel<\/strong> sauce<\/strong>, and cinnamon<\/strong>, and topped with a\u00a0salted pretzel<\/strong>. The chain recommends adding cinnamon powder and ordering the cafe\u2019s signature cornetti on the side for dunking.<\/p>\n

\u25bc This might look like a croissant, but it\u2019s a cornetti.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Another beverage waiting to tempt you at this Starbucks location is the Starbucks Reserve Opera Frappuccino<\/strong>. This dessert-like drink, inspired by an opera cake, contains almond milk and espresso, with a whipped cream and rich chocolate sauce topping, making for a luxurious experience.<\/p>\n
