Yakult Grapefruit Red Wine
Light Yakult, citrusy grapefruit, and mellow red wine—this drink layers soft sparkle with a wine lover’s twist.
Yakult Grapefruit Red Wine reimagines red wine as a light, layered summer creation—playful, fresh, and sparkling with personality.
The drink begins with a shaken blend of Yakult syrup and grapefruit, poured over popping lychee boba and kumquat slices, then topped with a slow pour of red wine to create a dual-layered profile.
It’s not about boldness—it’s about balance. Designed for National Wine Day, this refreshing wine-based mocktail is perfect for elevated happy hour menus, brunch pairings, and visual storytelling on social platforms.
