HW5

In my country, Japan, there’s a traditional kind of tea, Maccha. I cannot make Maccha, but I like the bitter taste. And, I like both coffee and tea, however, since I came here, I really miss Japanese green tea. Now, I can drink coffee everyday if I want to, but I cannot drink real Japanese green tea so easily now. When I was in Japan, drinking green tea was my dairy custom. In Japan, green tea is really popular and there are many kinds of green tea. Nowadays, green tea industry is getting bigger and bigger. Therefore, there are many vending machines everywhere I go. And I could buy bottled green tea whenever I want. In contrast, in the United States, I cannot buy green tea like in Japan. Actually, there are bottled tea, however, it’s not real Japanese green tea. American green tea is so sweet and it’s like a juice for me. Unfortunately, many of Americans recognize it is a green tea. I want to introduce real green tea to American. After I came here, I realized I really love Japanese green tea.

Vending Machines really are everywhere in Japan. I am convinced that there are some in the middle of the woods somewhere too!
