Sarutahiko Coffee Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya Ward, Tokyo; CEO: Asayuki Otsuka), operator of the specialty coffee shop 'Sarutahiko Coffee,' will launch three seasonal summer drinks—'Chocolate Mint Jellatte,' 'Bitter Orange Americano,' and 'Himawari Blend'—starting Tuesday, June 23, 2026.
This year marks the debut of Sarutahiko Coffee's first chocolate mint beverage: the 'Chocolate Mint Jellatte.' Additionally, due to popular demand from customers who requested its return via stores and social media, the 'Bitter Orange Americano'—originally launched in 2025—will be revived for a limited time.
Alongside these new and returning drinks, the highly popular seasonal 'Himawari Blend' will also be released, offering a refreshing lineup perfect for enjoying the hot summer months.
We also recommend pairing these drinks with our food menu items.
◾️ Chocolate Mint Jellatte
Sarutahiko Coffee's first chocolate mint drink.
Capitalizing on the growing popularity of chocolate mint flavors in desserts and ice cream, this drink aims for a natural taste by minimizing artificial flavorings and instead using herbal mint syrups.
It features house-made mint jelly crafted from mint tea blended with lemon balm, combined with a milk-based chocolate cookie frozen cream. Topped with whipped cream and flakes of chocolate and mint chocolate, this drink offers a refreshing experience with natural aroma and smooth flavor.
Designed as a gentle chocolate mint beverage, it’s ideal for those who enjoy the flavor but find overly strong versions too intense.

◾️ Bitter Orange Americano
This seasonal drink ranked No.1 in sales in 2025. After its release ended, numerous customers expressed interest through stores and social media with messages such as 'Will it be available this year?' and 'We want to drink it again,' leading to the decision for a revival.
A sparkling beverage combining the refreshing aroma of blood orange and other citrus fruits, balanced acidity and sweetness, and Sarutahiko Coffee’s signature espresso for a pleasantly bitter taste.

◾️ Himawari Blend
Inspired by the strong, upright impression and gentle sweetness of sunflowers, this blend uses smooth Panamanian beans as a base, layered with Kenyan beans to create a bold structure, while Ethiopian beans add soft, bright flavors.
Adding Colombian beans processed using the natural method as an accent results in a well-rounded cup with subtle fermentation notes and tropical flavors.
As iced coffee, it offers refreshing notes reminiscent of lychee and ruby grapefruit, making it the perfect blend for the upcoming season.

Recommended Pairings
Chocolate Mint Jellatte × Chocolate Brownie / Salty Chocolate Sablé
Pairing chocolate mint with chocolate desserts enhances the chocolate experience and satisfaction. The saltiness of the sablé further accentuates the sweetness of the Jellatte.
Bitter Orange Americano × Honey Mustard Chicken Sandwich
Much like pairing a hot dog with cola, the sparkling carbonation refreshingly cuts through the juicy, salty fat, while the citrus’s balanced acidity and sweetness enhance the savory flavor of the meat.
