Tourists Skip This $5 Real-Melon Frappรฉ at Starbucks ๐Ÿˆ

Heading to Japan? This might be the best Frappuccino I've ever had. No exaggeration๐Ÿˆ If you're in Japan, Starbucks just dropped THE Frappuccinoยฎ of Melon of Melon โ€” part of their 30th Anniversary "THE Star" lineup (5 flavors total, each store carries only one). The melon doesn't taste like a syrup. It tastes like real, juicy Japanese melon โ€” multi-layered, sweet but the kind of sweet that makes you want a second sip, then a third. I've had a lot of Frappuccinos. This one is different. Whipped cream and melon syrup on top. Pale green-yellow ice-blended base in the middle. And then โ€” real melon flesh waiting at the bottom. When you sip down to the last layer, there's actual fruit. Not a flavoring, not a powder. Sweet, juicy, addictive โ€” and only here, only this anniversary, only while supplies last. ๐Ÿ†• 30th Anniversary Limited โ€” 5 flavors total, each store carries only ONE ๐Ÿˆ Real Japanese melon โ€” not a flavoring, not a powder.
