Starbucks Has A Blood-Red Halloween Frappuccino That Sounds To Die For
Starbucks is truly best in the fall. And while those of us in the U.S. have had to get creative with our autumn drink offerings (IT Frappuccino, Jack Skellington Frappuccino, Joker Frappuccino, the list goes on!) our friends over in Japan are currently enjoying some limited-edition Starbucks drinks worthy of some serious envy.
Starbucks Japan has at least two Masquerade-themed fall drinks. First up is a Halloween Red Night Frappuccino, which truly looks like a bloody good time. According to Japan Today, it's made up of a sweet and sour red berry sauce blended with a white chocolate brownie flavor that's then topped with whipped cream, dark cocoa powder, and more berry sauce.
The chain began serving this drink on October 11, and for a limited time, you can even get a straw topper that looks like a masquerade mask. We love a drink that doubles as a costume.
In addition to the Frapp, you can also get a Halloween Masquerade Raspberry Mocha if you're heading over to Japan. It's a white mocha drink with mixed berries and a shot of espresso.
Sora News tried both drinks out and loved them both. They said that the drinks blended sweet and tart flavors together well and had a spooky mood about them like there had been "a bloody murder in the shadows at the masquerade party." That's a vibe I can get behind.
In addition to those drinks, Instagrammer @Candyhunting said there is yet another Frapp coming to Starbucks Japan this month. The Halloween Dark Night Frappuccino will reportedly be out on October 18, and it's basically a dark chocolate version of the Red Night Frapp. It's got "dark cocoa, brownies with white chocolate chips, and a red berry sauce made from raspberry, cranberry, and strawberry," according to CandyHunting.

Both of the confirmed drinks will only be sticking around until October 31, so one can only assume this one, if it exists, that is, will be gone by Halloween, too.
So all that's left to do is look enviously from afar as Starbucks Japan has all the fun this month. Or book a plane ticket...is that too rash?
