Kyoto-based vegan restaurant "mumokuteki cafe KYOTO" begins selling popular homemade red perilla juice from July 2nd

Human Forum Co., Ltd. is pleased to announce that "mumokuteki cafe KYOTO" (Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto City), which offers dishes and sweets without animal ingredients, has started selling this year's batch of its "Homemade Red Perilla Juice," which is popular every year, from July 2, 2026 (Thu).

Homemade Red Perilla Juice

This product is a homemade drink that allows you to enjoy the vibrant reddish-purple color, refreshing aroma, and clean acidity unique to red perilla. Although we prepare enough to offer it year-round, it is a popular item and often sells out. This year, in line with the red perilla preparation season, we will begin selling it anew from July 2 (Thu).

It is available in three serving styles: Hot, Ice, and Soda. You can choose from Hot, which allows you to slowly savor the aroma of red perilla; Ice, which is refreshing and easy to drink; or Soda, for an even more invigorating experience, depending on your mood for the day.

In addition to dining in and cafe use, we also offer takeout, making it a perfect choice for a refreshing drink during your Kyoto strolls or on a hot day.

Homemade Red Perilla Juice Born from "A Place Where You Can Eat with Peace of Mind."

At mumokuteki cafe KYOTO, with the concept of "A Place Where You Can Eat with Peace of Mind," we value being a place where everyone, from vegans and vegetarians, to those with allergies, health-conscious individuals, and those who feel anxious about their food choices, can enjoy meals with peace of mind. The "Homemade Red Perilla Juice" we are now selling is a drink that extends this philosophy. We have finished it with a taste that complements daily meals, making the most of the natural colors and aromas of the ingredients.

Vibrant Color and Refreshing Aroma Unique to Red Perilla

Red perilla is an ingredient that has been cherished in Japanese food culture for a long time, and is also used in umeboshi (pickled plums) and shibazuke (a type of pickled vegetable). It is characterized by its unique aroma and vibrant reddish-purple color. Its naturally derived pigment is visually appealing and makes for an impressive drink.

Red perilla is also known to contain rosmarinic acid, a type of polyphenol.

Hot / Ice / Soda: Three Ways to Enjoy, Depending on Your Mood

At mumokuteki cafe KYOTO, we have prepared red perilla, which has long been incorporated into Japanese dining tables, as a homemade drink that is easy to pair with meals and cafe time. The serving styles are as follows:

Hot: A cup that allows you to slowly savor the aroma of red perilla, recommended for those concerned about getting cold from air conditioning.

Ice: The classic style, allowing you to directly enjoy the refreshing acidity and gentle sweetness. It is easy to drink with meals and suitable for cafe time.

Soda: A light drink with the added effervescence of carbonation, perfect as a takeout drink during your Kyoto strolls.

Enjoyable In-Store or Takeout, Even During Your Kyoto Stroll
