Starbucks Japan to launch new Kyoho grape beverages

Starbucks Japan will launch two new seasonal beverages featuring Kyoho grapes starting August 17, 2026. The new lineup is designed to bridge the transition from summer to autumn.

The first offering, ‘Houjun Kyoho Frozen Tea’, combines Kyoho grape pulp with black tea, featuring grape jelly and a hint of cassis flavor. The second, ‘Chillax Soda Kyoho’, is the first entry in the Chillax Soda series to use the fruit, mixing grape pulp and jelly with soda and a green citrus-flavored syrup.

Prices for the Frozen Tea are set at 668 yen for takeout and 680 yen for in-store consumption (Tall size). The Chillax Soda will be available in Tall, Grande, and Venti sizes, with prices ranging from 579 to 680 yen depending on the size and service type.
