Sakura Latte
Location: Foody mart
Price: $4???? I don’t know I didn’t buy it
Unlike the other Sakura packet, this one comes in just one big packet of powder, so it’s up to the drinker’s discretion how much to put in (and thus, how strong the flavour). I have no idea how much is enough, so I eye ball’d it and put in 4.5 teaspoons. Guess I’ll find out!
It’s a soft pale pink!!! it smells very - sweet, but in a way that reminds me of candy floss and carnivals and arcade floors. Grandma says it smells geeet which is kind of like. Tart, but not like a lemon. I think it’s an odd blend of natural and artificial. A flower they pass out at a festival. Plucked out of its roots at its prime, its scent preserved, handed to another, destined to wane and die.
I filled half the tea pot with water and the other half with evaporated milk - okay that might be too much, so I’m filling a quarter of evaporated milk, and the rest of 2% milk. Okay, as I was pouring that in, I realised that even a quarter of evaporated milk might be absurdly too much, so I stopped after a big gloop and filled up the pot to 80% full with milk. Grandma says it looks nothing like tea.
婆婆: this is milk
Me: - tea! Milk tea! :)
婆婆: mmmm.
Oh wait yeah it’s a latte lol
You know, it didn’t occur to me until I finished making the whole pot, but maybe I shouldn’t have made an entire pot of something I’ve never tried before. Oh well! It’s my funeral. I put the “fuck around and find out” in “funeral”. Fu(ck)(arou)n(d)era(nd find out)l. It’s silent. Like all the vowels in french.
At the final stage of the process, I must admit this smells more like evaporated milk than it does Sakura, whatever that’s supposed to smell like. Here I go.
It tastes like - again, what I expect Sakura would taste like? I think? It tastes like how Sakura looks like - pink, delicate, sweet, soft. Fragrant. Candy floss in a carnival, is where I always go back to. And given that I filled almost half this concoction with milk, there’s a soft, childlike glow to the whole carnival scene - it’s still a place that feels magical and fun and wonderful, instead of crowded and dirty and maybe breaks too many OSHA laws (workplace safety). It’s a warm, comforting anticipation.
Also the pouring tea part is very satisfying, as the milky texture glides out like silk. High recommend for that experience alone.
