Today's tea was a Japanese green tea which I never had before but I heard of: Genmaicha. It is green tea which has roasted rice in it, but since they use teabags (?) at Presotea there was no rice in my drink. And since I experienced plain tea being quite bitter I chose perilla as a topping today. I was hoping that it might be in lemon juice or something giving flavour to it, but it wasn't. So, my today's drink wasn't strong in taste, but still wasn't that bad. It just took me some time to get used to the roasted taste. And I guess I shouldn't order plain green tea drinks when I am actually quite hungry. I already felt a little sick yesterday, when I had tea on an hungry stomach. So, plain tea will be on when I had something to eat before. Or I add a more filling topping like Boba or Nata de Coco.
