In Kyoto, Japan. Green tea” (= it’s called ” Maccia” ) is one of the traditional tea. It’s very bitter. In Japan, Green tea with frothy milk, is called
“Maccia Cappuccino”. It’s very popular especially for young Japanese.

What a original idea! Joining together green tea, that is traditionally japanese, and milk as a cappuccino seems unusual, but it is genial! If I have the possibility to go to Japan I’ll try it! It sounds good! (^_^)
Thanks, Anna! And I think this cup & Saucer are also beautiful! In japan, there are a lot of beautiful pottery & china cups. You can enjoy these things in Japan.

Thank you for your comment Lara!
I think it is very important to protect the traditional tastes, but it is also important to add new idea in tradition to diffuse its taste for young generation to pass the tradition down from generation to generation. This new drink = “Green-tea&Cuppucino” is one of the good example, I think. We can notice & try our traditional tastes by this drink.
