Coffee & Milk Warabi Mochi | A Cool Japanese Summer Treat

A cool Japanese treat for a hot summer day. Today, I'm making two kinds of Warabi Mochi using potato starch — a slightly bitter coffee flavor and a sweet, milky flavor. After chilling them in ice water, I serve the two flavors together with kinako (roasted soybean powder) and brown sugar syrup, along with a cup of chilled green tea. Soft, chewy, glossy, and refreshing — a simple homemade Japanese sweet to enjoy on a summer day. At the end of the video, take a quiet walk through the countryside with me and watch a pheasant slowly wandering through a field. Thank you for spending a peaceful moment with me.
