JAPAN

()

As soon as the clock strikes midnight on December 26, Tokyo takes down all the yuletide apparel, leaving you to wonder if Christmas ever happened at all. Starbucks does the same thing in Japan, taking off the menu their holiday favorites in lieu of new flavors. Their latest offering is the Chocolate Orange Mocha, a concoction that’s equal parts creamy and fruity, with chunks of orange peels in the mix. It comes in Frappuccino form too, naturally.

Available until Feb 14 in Starbucks shops nationwide. (They’re hard to miss!)
