I tried Starbucks ME MOMENT Sunshine Lime & Tropical Twist, a refreshing combination of fruit juice and black tea.



The 'Starbucks ME MOMENT' series, which first appeared in 2024 as a refreshment drink combining tea and fruit juice, will be joined by the new ' Starbucks ME MOMENT Sunshine Lime ' and ' Starbucks ME MOMENT Tropical Twist ', which will be available exclusively at 7-Eleven stores nationwide from Tuesday, June 17, 2025. This time, the product was sent to the editorial department ahead of the release, so I tried it a little early.

On the left is 'Starbucks ME MOMENT Sunshine Lime' and on the right is 'Starbucks ME MOMENT Tropical Twist.'



'Sunshine Lime' is said to be 'a blend of lemon and white grape juice with the gorgeous aromas of clementine orange and other fruits.'



The ingredients are sugar, fruit juice (grape, lemon), black tea, acidulant, vitamin C, and flavoring. As noted in the margin, the lime flavor is due to flavoring. Calories are 145kcal per 500ml bottle.



When I first drank it, I got the feeling that it was some kind of fruit tea, but then the flavor of lemon and the aroma of lime spread. It had a very clean and refreshing taste, and even felt cool, so I got the impression that it was perfect for summer.



On the other hand, the 'Tropical Twist' is a product that 'combines apple and peach juice and hibiscus tea with tropical aromas such as guava, watermelon, and mangosteen.'



The ingredients are sugar, fruit juice (apple, peach), hibiscus, acidulant, flavoring, vitamin C, tomato pigment. Calories are 165kcal per 500ml bottle.



When poured into a glass, a very tropical and gorgeous aroma spreads, and when you drink it, the soft sweetness of peach spreads throughout your mouth. It is refreshing, but also has a strong sweetness.



Both 'Starbucks ME MOMENT Sunshine Lime' and 'Starbucks ME MOMENT Tropical Twist' are priced at 178 yen (excluding tax) and are only available at 7-Eleven stores nationwide.
