Starbucks Japan releases a Joyful Mango Earl Grey Tea Latte at 7-Eleven
Japan is currently home to 1,733 Starbucks branches, placing it fourth in the world in terms of store numbers, following the U.S., China and Korea. However, you don't even have to walk into an official branch to get a taste of Starbucks, as the chain also has a 'chilled cup' series that can be conveniently purchased at retail outlets like convenience stores around the country.
Produced in collaboration with Suntory, these pre-made beverages have been well received since their 2005 debut, and the limited-edition seasonal releases continually prove to be wildly popular. Now, there's a new limited-edition flavor coming to stores for summer, and it's called the Starbucks Joyful Mango Earl Grey Tea Latte.
This is the first time for a Chilled Cup tea latte to contain mango juice, and it's being paired with milk and an aromatic Earl Grey tea for the ultimate in joyful summer refreshment. The elegant scent of bergamot is a perfect partner for the juicy, tropical mango flavor, creating a light, refreshing and luxurious taste.
The design on the cups will immediately attract the eye, with bold illustrations of mangoes set against a gold metallic background to express the premium feel of the latte while evoking a tropical atmosphere. Fun and summery, the drink is said to taste as good as it looks, and the product development team recommends pairing it with a chocolate nut cookie, as the bittersweet chocolate helps to balance out the sweet and mellow mango flavor even further.
The Joyful Mango Earl Grey Tea Latte is priced at 219 yen and can be purchased for a limited time at 7-Eleven convenience stores around Japan and at the following Ito-Yokado-run locations: York Benimaru, York Mart, York Foods, York Price, Tenmaya, Youme Town, Youme Mart, Youme Terrace, Youme Mall, Yours, Maruyoshi Centre.

Japanese game maker Nintendo reports robust profits on strong Switch 2 sales
Nintendo, the Japanese video game maker behind the Super Mario and Pokemon franchises, reported an 18.6% surge in net profit for the first fiscal quarter Friday on the back of strong demand for its new Switch 2 console. Kyoto-based Nintendo Co.'s April-June profit totaled 96.03 billion yen ($640 million), up from nearly 81 billion yen. Quarterly sales more than doubled to 572.36 billion yen ($3.8 billion). Nintendo said it sold 3.5 million Switch 2 game consoles globally on the first four days after it hit store shelves June 5, a record pace for a Nintendo game machine. Its sales continue to be strong, it said. The company said the new console's higher price added to sales growth momentum. The new version sells for about $450 compared to $300 for the previous Switch when it first went on sale in 2017. Especially popular games included 'Mario Kart World' and 'Donkey Kong Bananza.' 'Pokemon Friends,' which went on sale last month for the older Switch, can be also played on the new Switch. The Switch works both as a handheld portable machine and as a home console. Nintendo stuck to its forecast to sell 15 million Switch 2 machines through this fiscal year. Nintendo left unchanged its profit forecast for the year through March 2026, at 300 billion yen ($2 billion) profit, up nearly 8% on year. Nintendo stock, which has steadily climbed in the past year gaining more than 50%, edged down nearly 1% before earnings were announced. There are some worries about the impact of President Donald Trump's tariffs on Japanese exports, but that did not appear to affect Nintendo's overall projections.

China suspended such imports in 2001, following the spread of bovine spongiform encephalopathy in Japan. But a bilateral animal health and quarantine agreement took effect July 11, Japan's Foreign Ministry said.
