About the Holiday Seasonal Drinks
DEAN & DELUCA Apple Cider
Apple Cider is available hot or iced for ¥626 (small) or ¥702 (medium), tax included. It combines fresh apples, orange, dried raisins and four spices for a fruity, gently spiced drink.

DEAN & DELUCA Cream Apple Cider
Cream Apple Cider is available hot or iced for ¥680 (small) or ¥756 (medium), tax included. Whipped cream and caramel sauce give the spiced apple drink a dessert-like finish.

Raspberry Cheese Chai is built in three layers: berry sauce, raspberry milk chai and a cream cheese and berry foam. Raspberry appears in a different form in each layer, while freeze-dried raspberry and gold sugar add a festive finish. The hot version lets the foam melt into the spiced chai, while the iced version highlights the changing character of each layer.
