The latest wave of new drinks from Starbucks seemed to be much inspired by some Japanese vibes. Of the three beverages, the Okinawa Brown Sugar Latte (S$7.60 for a Tall size) was the coffee based drink that added some Brown Sugar syrup and sauce in place of the regular sugar syrup.

The coffee tasted like it was only supplemented with a different type of syrup. On the whole, if the Okinawa Brown Sugar wasn’t something that you were paying much attention to, then this drink might not be that special to you.
