Starbucks Japan announced that will release new mugs and other merchandise for Mother’s Day on Wednesday, April 19, 2023!

The origins of the celebration of Mother’s Day in Japan are somewhat uncertain, and it is not known for sure if it was a holiday introduced by Christian missionaries or if it began as a way to celebrate the birthday of Emperor Akihito’s mother. What is known is that it began to be celebrated around 1900, but was banned during World War II. At the end of the war in 1949, Mother’s Day was celebrated again in Japan.

The star gift on Mother’s Day in Japan is flowers, especially carnation or roses, and the most common colors are red or pink. In 2023 Starbucks Japan brings us an original and different way to give flowers on Mother’s Day, a new Mother’s Day merchandise featuring carnations and a parent and child hummingbird.

From Barcelona to Tokyo. Coffee & Adventure lover🌏☕️ 

I started to like Japan because of the anime, music and doramas, but after my first trip to the country I found what I love the most: traveling around, the culture and history. I have travelled a lot in Japan, but I still have many places to discover that I want to share with you🙋🏼‍♀️ Let’s discover Japan together!

 

Also, as a foreigner living in Japan for over 6 years I understand what kind of things are difficult when you move here and I want to help other people in the same situation that I have in the past.
