In celebration of its 7th anniversary, Cafe au Lait Tokyo is hosting a unique event featuring cilantro-infused creations. From June 4 to June 30, 2026, visitors can enjoy a special menu that combines the unexpected pairing of cilantro and cafe au lait.
About the Event
This event offers a unique experience for visitors to Japan, especially those interested in trying new and unusual flavor combinations. Located in Shinagawa, Tokyo, the cafe provides an exciting culinary adventure for those willing to explore the fusion of cilantro with cafe au lait and various sweets.
Cafe au Lait Tokyo, known for its specialty cafe au lait drinks, has created a special cilantro-themed menu for this anniversary celebration. The idea originated from a playful experiment by the cafe’s staff, which led to the discovery of the surprisingly harmonious blend of cilantro with cafe au lait.
The menu features seven cilantro-infused items, including the “Pakuole” (cilantro cafe au lait) and “Pakunade” (cilantro lemonade). These innovative drinks and desserts are designed to offer a fresh take on the cafe’s traditional offerings.

- Pakuole (Cilantro Cafe au Lait) combines oats milk, soy milk, and coconut milk with a hint of coriander.
- Pakunade (Homemade Cilantro Lemonade) is praised as “the best drink in the world” by some tasters.
- Paktira (Cilantro Tiramisu) features mascarpone cream with cilantro powder and chopped cilantro.
