Seven-Eleven is selling “Seven Cafe Smoothies” at some stores in Tokyo and Chiba. Since the stores where they are sold have not been announced, many people on social networking sites are asking “This is a phantom product” and “Where can I buy it? “Where can I buy it? The author, who visited stores in Tokyo every day and succeeded in purchasing five different types, reports on how they compare!
What is Seven Cafe Smoothie?
Seven Cafe Smoothie” is a smoothie made by purchasing a cup containing frozen fruits and vegetables and placing it in a special machine in a store. As of May 2022, the smoothie is being introduced on a trial basis at select stores in Tokyo and Chiba.
Where can I buy it?
In the case of the author, he conducted a search for “Seven Cafe Smoothie” in between interviews. There are many 7-Eleven stores, but I could not find “Seven Cafe Smoothie” at all. …… The stores where I could find it for four days were “Aoyama 1-chome Ekimae Store” in Akasaka, Minato-ku, Tokyo, and “Minami Aoyama 2-chome Store” in Minami Aoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo. Minami-Aoyama 2-chome store in Minami-Aoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo, and Toshima Senkawa Eki-Kita store in Toshima-ku, Tokyo. Finally, we were able to encounter them (tears). After that, we made a list of available stores based on our own research. Please refer to the end of this article.
There are five types in the lineup, all priced at 300 yen! All priced at 300 yen!
The lineup consists of five types: “Green Smoothie,” “Ripe Mango Pineapple Juice,” “Strawberry Banana Soy,” “Blueberry Yogurt,” and “Sweet Ripe King Banana Juice. All are priced at 300 yen, making them easy to pick up. They were displayed in a showcase lined with ice cream and frozen foods, or in the same location as the ice for the “Seven Cafe.
How to make “Seven Cafe Smoothie
Seven Cafe Smoothie” can be made at the special smoothie machine located alongside the coffee machines. The instructions are provided on the display and POP, and are very easy to follow.
1: Purchase a smoothie cup of your choice.
2: Scan the product barcode using the sensor located at the bottom of the smoothie machine.
3: Unlock the door of the machine, remove the film from the cup, and place it in the holder of the machine!
4: Close the door, press the start button, and let the machine do the rest!
After pressing the start button, it takes about one minute for the smoothie to be ready. It takes a little longer than coffee smoothies, but as you watch the vegetables and fruits being crushed and mixed in front of your eyes, you will feel excited to be able to drink a freshly made smoothie.
Impressions of Seven Cafe Smoothies and Green Smoothies
The “Green Smoothie” is a mix of kale leaves, pineapple, banana pulp, orange juice, and milk. The green visual may remind you of a green taste, but when you drink it, the pineapple and banana flavors are strong, and the green taste is almost non-existent!
It is very easy to drink. When you think of a smoothie, you imagine a drink that still feels icy and requires a bit of power to suck up, but the “Green Smoothie” feels like a freshly squeezed juice. However, a “green smoothie” feels like freshly squeezed juice. It is an excellent way to easily and deliciously recharge your body with green and yellow vegetables. It is a health food that you can consume when you are worried about vegetable deficiency!
Impression of “Seven Cafe Smoothie” / “Ripe Mango Pineapple Juice
Fully Ripe Mango Pineapple Juice is packed with mango and pineapple pulp, apple juice concentrate, acerola juice powder, passion fruit, banana, carrot puree, and other “yellow” elements of green and yellow vegetables.
It has a mellow texture and rich flavor unique to mango, with a slight aftertaste of pineapple, banana, and carrot. It has a sweet impression. It is nice that the mango pulpiness is still present.
Impression of “Seven Cafe Smoothie” / “Strawberry Banana Soy Smoothie
The Strawberry Banana Soy Smoothie contains strawberry, banana, and pineapple pulp, honey, soy milk, acerola juice powder, and apple cider vinegar. Those bright red strawberries you see when you peel off the film are adorable!
After being crushed, it has a strawberry-milk-like color. When you drink it, it tastes as milky and creamy as it looks. However, the sweetness was less than I expected. I also felt the volume of the drink, perhaps because it contains a lot of bananas.
Seven Cafe Smoothie” / “Blueberry Yogurt Smoothie
The “Blueberry Yogurt Smoothie” is a mix of processed yogurt, blueberries, pineapple, banana pulp, orange juice, and milk. The blueberry pulpiness is moderate, and it is the most smoothie-like of the four, with a slightly chunky taste. The sweet and sour taste of the blueberries and processed yogurt go well with the thickening and sweetness of the banana. You can drink it as if you were drinking fresh, rich yogurt.
Impressions of “Seven Cafe Smoothie” and “Sweet and Ripe King Banana Juice
The pulp of Philippine brand bananas, “Sweet Ripe King,” is in abundance. In addition, soy milk, banana puree, and apple juice are used in the “Amari-Ou Banana Juice. The sweetness of the ingredients comes alive in this fresh juice that I want to drink every morning. The banana flavor is so addictive that it is almost too good to be true. Sometimes you can even feel the sticky pulpy texture, which is very satisfying! The sweet and sour apple juice adds a nice accent. The fruity aroma that escapes into the nose is also outstanding.
