Yuzu Tea

Hot Yuzu Tea

One of my favourite hot drinks in winter.  It comes in a big jar and looks like marmalade.  Yuzu or (Citron) is a citrus fruit, a bit like a cross between a lemon and orange.  The other main ingredient is honey.

2-3 tea spoonfuls in a mug, add hot or boiling water and you have a nice healthy caffeine free drink.  It is packed with vitamin C and great for when you have a sore throat or cold.  I’ve seen infomericals on Japanese TV showing that you can mix it with soda for a cool summer drink or use it like jam on bread or toast.  My guess is that it would be far too sweet to use on bread.

As you might have noticed from the photos, this yuzu tea is from Korea but you can get Japanese Yuzu tea too.  This 1kg jar will last me about 2-3 months and only cost 780 yen.  A right delicious bargain!

December 18th, 2008 post by ice
POTION

POTION

Bought potions version 3 for campaign for DISSIDIA FINAL FANTASY launching.
http://www.suntory.co.jp/softdrink/potion/index.html

I’m a would be FF fan, so just have only played Final Fantasy IV, V, VI, VII(AC/DC), VIII.
But can’t stop to buy these even if i know this is SQUARE ENIX’s trap!!
(I bought FF XII on released day, but stopped to play at the first castle gate…)

The cans are cool, but its taste is not for 200yen…
It tastes like Sprite with some other taste. ummm, not bad, but….

For can’s design.
I completely forgot Ultimecia(VIII), so first time to see her illustation, can’t remember who she is.
That Butz(IV)…, looks like a girl. It’s too different from my image. not like.
CG Cefca(VI) is so cool! ….!! it’s no Cefca?? Emperor? Who is he???

Getting mood that Want to play FINAL FANTASY VIII English Edition again.

DISSIDIA FINAL FANTASY の発売記念企画のポーション第3段が出てたので買ってしまった。
http://www.suntory.co.jp/softdrink/potion/index.html

にわか FF ファンなので、 IV, V, VI, VII(FF7 AC/DC), VIII しかやったこと無いけど、
SQUARE ENIX に踊らされていると知りつつも、ついつい・・・。
（FF XII は発売日に買ったのに、スターと直後の城の門の外のセーブポイントで止めてしまって放置）

缶はカッコイイけど、味はお世辞にも200円の味じゃないと思う。
スプライトに微妙に味がついたような、なんというか・・・。まずくないけどね。

FF VIII は好きだったけど、アルティミシアのことはすっかり忘れてたので一瞬誰かと思った。
あと、バッツが女っぽすぎて納得行かない。
CG の方のケフカがカッコよすぎる！！と思ったら皇帝？？思い出せない。

途中で投げ出してた英語版の FF VIII を再開しようかな・・・。
