Five types of rice balls that go well with green tea "Ayataka" to be sold for a limited time at Aeon, co-planned with Coca-Cola Japan 2026/5/18 13:47 Coca-Cola Japan and Aeon Retail announced on the 18th that they jointly planned five types of rice balls to match the taste of five green tea beverages from the brand "Ayataka," and will sell them for a limited time from May 20 to June 14 at approximately 380 Aeon and Aeon Style stores nationwide. The pairing of Ayataka and rice balls aims to stimulate demand. Coca-Cola Japan offers "Ayataka," "Ayataka Mineral Green Tea," and the functional claimed food "Ayataka Rich Green Tea," and is said to have achieved record soda sales volume in 2025. This time, the two companies teamed up to develop five types of rice balls that complement each respective flavor. Specifically, the "ochazuke-style rice ball" is made by mixing ochazuke ingredients into rice, with a plum inside, resembling umeboshi ochazuke. When eaten with Ayataka, it creates an ochazuke flavor in the mouth. During the period, a campaign will be held where members of the Aeon app can receive a free coupon for Ayataka.
