Original (7/10): Kung Fu Tea announced a partnership with Nintendo today in which the two sides will be promoting Pikmin 4 with a new drink flavor, Pikmin themed cups, lids, and more.
For those who haven’t heard of the company, Kung Fu Tea is America’s largest bubble tea brand. For the Nintendo partnership, there’ll be a limited-time only drink inspired by Pikmin. The flavor will be available nationwide, alongside new Pikmin themed cups that feature the iconic Red, Yellow, and Blue Pikmin. Those who try out the flavor will receive an exclusive straw cap while supplies last.
Kung Fu Tea marketing manager Matthew Poveromo said of today’s announcement: “Kung Fu Tea is incredibly excited to be partnered with Nintendo to celebrate the release of the Pikmin 4 game. We can’t wait to give the dedicated fanbase surrounding the Pikmin franchise something new with a Kung Fu Tea twist! The curious creatures are the perfect match for our brand and community. We’re confident that this partnership will bring the joy of fearless exploration for boba lovers and Pikmin fans alike!”
Starting on July 21, a sweepstakes will be held on the Kung Fu Tea Instagram page. Eight winners will each receive a Switch OLED, a digital game code for Pikmin 4, and Kung Fu Tea Boba credit. You can check out the Instagram page here.
