"Ringo no Mezame" (Apple Awakening), a unique fruit drink brimming with chunks of apple flesh, is returning to FamilyMart stores nationwide. The beverage originally launched as a limited-quantity product in July 2025 and quickly gained a strong following. It is now coming back with an improved recipe.
What's New in the Relaunched "Ringo no Mezame"
Generous Apple Flesh for a Satisfying Sip
The drink features plenty of diced apple chunks alongside apple juice and purée. The combination of hearty fruit pieces and liquid creates a filling, satisfying drink that works well as a light snack.
Fuji Apple Juice for an Authentic Apple Flavor
The recipe incorporates Fuji apple juice, which accounts for 34% of the total apple juice content. Fuji apples are known for their juicy, aromatic, and refreshing taste. The inclusion of apple vinegar as a hidden ingredient further enhances and concentrates that distinctive apple flavor.
