Starbucks has released its new " WINTER COLLECTION Apple & Pear Tea Latte with Spice" (hereinafter "Apple & Pear Tea Latte with Spice") on October 22, 2024 (Tuesday)! This product was created with reference to " Apple Cider," a popular drink in the U.S. that reminds people of the changing of the seasons. The image of "cider" in Japan is that of a carbonated drink to refresh you in the hot summer, but this image is unique to Japan, and the meaning of "apple cider" in America is " natural fresh-pressed apple juice. In the U.S., "apple cider" means "natural, fresh-pressed apple juice. " Yet I've never heard of a tea latte that contains pears as well as apples! " so I got curious and did an actual drinking review!
Let's start with the package.
It's printed with illustrations of apples and pears, which are the key points of this product, and the colors are refreshing yet warm. The wintery white base color and soft gradient create a soothing and calming image.

Now that I have checked the package and nutritional information, I would like to try it. First of all, when I opened the lid, I could smell the gentle aroma of apples and the spicy smell of cinnamon. I love the deep and soothing smell that is unique to this season!
The taste is slightly sweet with a hint of pear, so the apple is less pronounced. The fruity sweetness was given a crisp aftertaste with the tangy spice of cinnamon! It is not as heavy as I expected, and the spicy aftertaste makes it a light drink. The fact that it was hot combined with the fact that it was a cold drink made me feel relaxed from the inside out, and it was a soothing drink during the cold season.
