(Headquarters: Nagoya, Aichi; President: Yuichi Amari), starting May 5, 2026 (Tuesday) at convenience stores nationwide, and from May 6, 2026 (Wednesday) at mass retailers (excluding some regions and stores). A New 'Craft Lemonade' with a Homemade Feel! The summer staple 'Craft Lemonade' returns this year to the Komeda Coffee Shop series. While previous versions used whole sliced lemons, in response to customer feedback expressing a desire to eat the lemon inside, the product has been reborn with added lemon peel to mark its 5th anniversary. The grainy texture of the lemon peel combined with refreshing juice provides a sense of satisfaction, as if eating a lemon itself. Refreshing Package Design! The package features a light blue gradient adorned with lemon flowers, creating a cool impression that makes you want to pick it up during hot weather. Furthermore, a large lemon placed near the iconic signboard visually communicates the richness of the flavor.
