I tried 'Craft Boss Cafe Chocolate Mint Latte Base,' which combines the refreshing taste of chocolate mint with the bitter flavor of coffee.



Suntory's 'Just Dilute Craft Boss Cafe' series, which allows you to make authentic cafe lattes and black coffee simply by diluting it with milk or water, has added a limited-edition ' Just Dilute Craft Boss Cafe Chocolate Mint Latte Base ' from July 7th, 2026 (Tuesday). It's said to have a refreshing mint and chocolate flavor, so I was curious to see what kind of drink it could make, and decided to try it myself.

The packaging for 'Craft Boss Cafe Chocolate Mint Latte Base - Just Break It' features a light blue color scheme that evokes the image of mint.



This is a 5x concentrate type, with a recommended ratio of 1:4 latte base to milk. Assuming one glass is 170ml, the amount used per serving is 34ml, meaning one bottle (340ml) can make approximately 10 servings. The ingredients are coffee beans, sugar, flavoring, and sweetener (acesulfame K).



The calorie content is 54kcal per 100ml. If we calculate the amount used per glass (170ml) as 34ml, the calorie content per glass is approximately 18kcal.



Let's try making a chocolate mint latte right away. By using the markings on the side, it's possible to pour in one serving at a time.



First, pour the 'Just Mix Craft Boss Cafe Chocolate Mint Latte Base' into a glass or cup. This time, we want the finished product to be one cup (170ml), so we'll use 34ml of latte base.



Next, pour in four times the amount of milk (approximately 136 ml).



Mix well and it's done.



Upon tasting it, the sweet and refreshing aroma of chocolate mint spreads throughout the mouth, while the bitter flavor of the base coffee is also clearly discernible. The mintiness is not excessive for a coffee drink, striking a perfect balance, making it a refreshing coffee drink ideal for the hot season.



The suggested retail price for 'Craft Boss Cafe Chocolate Mint Latte Base' is 368 yen (excluding tax), and it will be available nationwide for a limited time starting July 7th, 2026 (Tuesday). At the time of writing, it was also available on Amazon.co.jp, with a 24-pack priced at 5640 yen (including tax) (235 yen per bottle).
