Instead of containing coffee though, this new drink contains a rich and creamy base, made from fresh cream and white chocolate-flavoured syrup, which is then topped with milk, and finished with a creamy layer of cocoa.<\/p>\n<p>The resulting three-layered beverage lets you enjoy the richness of cocoa and its mellow sweetness in alternating strengths as you drink it. The deliciously creamy, milk chocolate flavours are said to give the beverage a dessert-like feel that will give you the same satisfying sense of joy as biting into an expensive Valentine\u2019s Day chocolate.<\/p>\n<p>On sale from 3 February at Starbucks stores around Japan, the new drink will be sold in a Tall size for 579 yen (US$3.74) for takeout or 590 yen for dine-in, and will only be available while stocks last.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source, images: Press release<\/em><br \/>\n<em>\u25cf Want to hear about SoraNews24\u2019s latest articles as soon as they\u2019re published? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/RocketNews24En\">Follow us on Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RocketNews24En\">Twitter<\/a>!<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The green mermaid shakes up the menu with a limited-edition twist on a classic drink.
