Yakult

Yakult has long been a beloved drink – known for its refreshing taste and its contribution to healthy gut flora. In many Asian countries, Yakult has become a trending ingredient in creative drinks. From cocktails to bubble tea and from mocktails to matcha drinks, Yakult’s smooth dairy base and subtle sweetness work surprisingly well in a wide variety of combinations.

Tea culture from Asia – such as matcha and bubble tea – continues to gain popularity worldwide, and Yakult fits right into that trend. The newest version, Yakult Plus Peach, is a true flavor booster. It's fresh, creamy, slightly sweet, and pairs beautifully with other ingredients.
