With Halloween just around the corner, Starbucks' Japan branch has introduced a range of spooky-themed drinks and desserts for the season.

Following up on black-and-slimy green drinks from previous years, the latest Halloween lineup features the Purple Halloween Frappuccino, a limited-time drink that uses murasaki imo (a type of sweet potato) as the base. The cream-based beverage is topped with purple sweet potato powder and vanilla sauce. The drink is accompanied by the Melty Raspberry in Halloween Cake, which is essentially a cupcake with purple raspberry filling.

In addition to the purple-themed menu items, Starbucks Japan is furthering its Halloween celebrations with a Mango Passionfruit Tea Frappuccino with citrus pulp and whipped cream, along with Matcha Cream Frappuccino.

Take a sneak peek at the drinks above and below. The Purple Halloween Frappuccino is available at Starbucks stores in Japan starting October 19 and will be available until October 31.
