It is a bottle of milk tea, yes, a transparent milk tea! A drink from Japan's SUNTORY and arouses interest among some young people and Japan foodies. Yesterday, my family bought and I had a try of it.
這是最近在好些年輕人或者日式食品愛好者之間引起了一陣話題的三得利透明奶茶。昨晚家人從超市買回來,立馬試喝一下!
Process 過程
Its' smell and taste like KIRIN's Gogo No Kōcha (Afternoon Tea). Heavy syrup after taste and even some cough syrup like stays on tongue (x_x) Hm..
嗅味和味道都有點像麒麟的午後之紅茶。不過這個糖漿味更重一些,而且過後還有一點點咳藥水的甜味留在舌頭上(x_x)
From the label print, then the light area to dark. I used color pencil to outline the words. A little bit regret draw it on a postcard size, not enough space for details.
先完成包裝紙,再由淺色的暗部再到深色的。字體我用木顏色筆再勾一下,有點後悔畫太細(只有明信片大少)
The taste is too sorry for me. I think I won't buy the next bottle... But I like the Afternoon Tea very much. I tried homemade Tapioca Milk Tea and the local Hong Kong style milk tea doesn't match much, but the Afternoon Tea (personal taste). However, for milk tea, I still the fan of local one with Ceylon tea and evaporated milk (sometimes condensed milk).
這透明奶茶的味道對於我來說有點抱歉了,應該不會再喝第二次。但我很喜歡午後之紅茶!還試過自製珍奶,珍奶用港式奶茶味道好像不太「夾」(配合),但用午後之紅茶我可以喝上幾杯(純個人口味)不過最後我應該還是港式奶茶的粉絲,錫蘭紅茶和淡奶(有時練奶),這味道已深入骨髓。
Epilogue 後記
這瓶透明奶茶被發明的原因是有說在日本職場文化中,在辦公室、開會或面對客人時喝有顏色的飲料是不成熟的表現。也有人想到這樣就不怕不小心弄污襯衫了。好像它的「功能性」比味道更重要,哈哈。無論如何,這個人氣飲品不妨試一下,貪新鮮~(說這麼久可惜沒有廣告費)
Edit: On 1/11, the "the National Tea Day" , Suntory released a Youtube video (gif like video) which explains the method of making transparent tea. 追記:在11月1日紅茶日,三得利在Youtube上載了製作這透明茶飲料的片段。(雖說片段...但也只是一條動圖般的片)
