Oh, Starbucks. For macchiatos, cappuccinos, Frappuccinos, and more, the coffee giant is our go-to whenever we’re in need of a pick-me-up. It’s well-known that the Starbucks flagship store is located in Seattle, but over the last 50 years, the chain has opened more than 35,000 stores in 80 countries around the world. While most drinks are consistent among all Starbucks locations, some countries offer locally-inspired beverages not available anywhere else. Here are a few to look out for the next time you find yourself at a Starbucks abroad.

Melty White Pistachio Frappuccino

Nutty pistachio and rich white chocolate are a match made in heaven in this seasonal drink available at Starbucks in Japan. The milk-based blended beverage is served over a drizzle of white chocolate sauce with a special white chocolate mascarpone whipped cream on top, then sprinkled with crushed pistachio cookies for garnish. An espresso-based latte version of the drink is available as well.

Churro Frappuccino

Americans may be familiar with this so-called “secret menu” beverage, but in Latin America, it’s an official member of the Starbucks lineup. Inspired by the popular Spanish treat, the Churro Frap is made with a blend of cinnamon and doce de leite, or caramelized milk, then topped with whipped cream and even more cinnamon.

Okayama Peach Apple Cold Brew 

If you’re traveling in Southeast Asia and fruity beverages are more your thing, you have to try this refreshing take on cold brew coffee. Available at Starbucks locations throughout Hong Kong, Singapore, and Vietnam, the drink features a lemonade-infused slow-steeped cold brew sweetened with a tangy peach apple syrup.

When you’re traveling and working remotely at the same time, cafes are oftentimes your best friends. Sure, you could just stay in your hotel room or hostel and get your work done there, but where’s the fun in that? There’s something rejuvenating about getting work done in a separate location from where you’re sleeping—which is why cafes are such popular places for remote workers. Here are some popular café chains to get work done in.

Starbucks

The most obvious answer to this question is none other than Starbucks. In addition to being one of the most famous coffee chains in the entire world, they’ve tailored their whole vibe to meet the demands of workers on the go. You really can’t go wrong with bringing your laptop to a Starbucks and setting up camp there.

Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf

Another great cafe to get work done in is Coffee Bean. Although there are considerably less chains than Starbucks, the ones that exist are pretty darn good for remote work. From the tasty bagels to the refreshing iced blendeds, you won’t be disappointed here.

Peet’s Coffee and Tea

Another cafe that definitely fits the standard for the remote worker is Peet’s Coffee and Tea. There are plenty chains across America and you’d be hard pressed to not find a comfortable spot there to relax and get some much needed work done.

If you’re looking for a quick caffeine fix while traveling, you might be tempted to check out the local Starbucks. At first glance, that might seem like a waste of time-—you can get Starbucks anywhere, right? but not necessarily. Most countries have at least a couple of Starbucks drinks that aren’t available anywhere else. So if you’re hesitating, go on in and check the menu for something you wouldn’t be able to try back home. Here are a few examples.

Tiramisu Frappuccino — Japan

Japan has quite a lot of interesting and showy local coffee drinks, and Starbucks is no exception. One option is a tiramisu frappuccino. With coffee, sponge cake, and creamy mascarpone, it’s a truly unique dessert of a drink.

Orange Honeycomb Crunch Frappuccino — Indonesia and Thailand

Frappuccinos are where Starbucks does its greatest experimentation, perhaps because it is a coffee drink category that is somewhat unique to the chain. Most local coffee shops do not serve any kind of blended coffee drink, let alone such a wide variety. The orange honeycomb crunch is a great option for you if you don’t like coffee but you want to enjoy a Starbucks drink—this is a “cream-based” drink with no coffee to speak of. It uses orange cream syrup and honeycomb candy for crunch.

Honey Vanilla Macchiato — Australia and South Korea

Served hot or iced, this comforting drink uses a base of honey- and vanilla-infused milk. It’s topped up with a shot of espresso, milk foam, and christened with a honey drizzle.

In 1996, Starbucks opened its first Japanese location in Ginza, Tokyo. Now, 25 years later, they are doing something very special to celebrate their continued presence in the country. For each prefecture, they have partnered with locals to develop a special frappuccino featuring local ingredients and flavors for that prefecture. These are the JIMOTO Frappuccinos; “jimoto” meaning “local” in Japanese.

Each drink will be available only in its own region, so if you were looking for a reason to travel around Japan, here is a great one. The drinks feature many very creative local ingredients and are modeled after the landscapes and industries that the regions are known for.

For example, the bright pink Yamanashi frappuccino honors the prefecture’s 1300-year-old grape industry with grape, cream, and white chocolate blended together. Similarly, Hokkaido’s locally-grown exports of Tobiki corn and milk are blended into the flavors of its frappuccino.

Other frappuccinos show off a region’s landscapes rather than its local ingredients. The Iwate drink is inspired by Mt. Iwate’s iconic form, with black sesame sauce, matcha green tea, and caramel sauce representing its many colors.

If you can’t imagine a single day without grabbing some coffee at Starbucks, Seattle won’t leave you disappointed. In addition to being home to more Starbucks stores than we can count, this is the place where you can visit the original store of this beloved coffee chain.

Starbucks’ biggest fans know that this company was originally founded in Seattle. The first store to ever open its doors in this city in 1971 was located at 2000 Western Avenue, but it changed its address five years later. It moved to 1912 Pike Place, the iconic address that’s now known by the nickname the Original Starbucks.

This may not be the first Starbucks to ever exist, but there’s something that sets it apart from any other store in the world. It’s been almost 50 years since this store stood in the same place, but it still looks the same way it did before: floors, fixtures, counters, and all!

Over the years, the Original Starbucks became one of Seattle’s top tourist attractions thanks to its unique, retro feel. Its doors are open between 7 am and 9 pm every day, and tourists from all around the world don’t mind waiting in long lines to get a fresh cup of coffee, even if it takes hours.
