From Japan to the Philippines: Cherry Blossom in full swing at Starbucks

Cherry Blossom in full bloom starting today at Starbucks Philippines!

Cool breeze, faded pink flowers, and new beginnings — the arrival of spring is one that is always anticipated by many especially in Japan. The rare sight of Sakura trees coming in full bloom lifts blissful spirits, signifying a unique sense of renewal and optimism. Every year, Starbucks offers to bring that cherry blossom experience but always with its own twist. 

This February, spring winds are beginning to blow cool air as Starbucks embraces the changing of the season with a cheerful menu of new favorites inspired by the sweet-smelling peach blossom.

Sometimes, summer flies by so fast that we wish we could stop time to savor the sunniest days of the year for just a bit longer. And just because we return to the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it doesn’t mean that we can’t press pause once in a while. 

This June, Starbucks is giving everyone that much-needed detour with refreshing and indulgent beverages that will help you sit still, slow down, and savor its rich flavors. The revitalizing new drinks will be available for a limited time only starting June 4.
