You might wonder why I’m shaking a bottle
of green tea.
It’s because this is the way how to drink
this bottle. I found this unique beverage
on my Sizuoka trip.
When I found it on the shelf, it looked
like this; the inside of the bottle is clear with no color, and it has a bigger
cap than ordinary bottles. It is just cold
mineral water and it has powered tea leaves in the cap. The tea is not matcha, but deep-steamed sencha. To prepare the tea, you release the leaves
into the water by twisting the green cap.
Then, you shake the bottle like what I did in the first photo. The tea is mixed and gets green like the
following picture. Now, it is ready for
you to drink!
Isn’t this interesting?
Even though I was disappointed finding the
tea a little rough with a weak flavor, I think that the concept is excellent. You can have fresh prepared tea anytime, and plus
you can enjoy preparing. I like the
playful idea. It might need a slight improvement, but in the
future, this could be one of standards of bottled tea. Do you see the potential?

very neat! it would prevent the tea from becoming bitter, loosing anti-oxidants, and being damaged by sunlight. it would be neat if it were a reusable container you could put your own tea in, to enjoy cold anytime!
ReplyDeleteThat’s a great idea! How nice reusing the bottle with your own tea!
DeleteSpeaking of which, I have seen a product that makes your idea come true. It is a filter to attach on the opening of the bottle. Pictures >> http://news.walkerplus.com/2011/0113/13/
Once I had the idea for a battery operated hot water heater. I think the biggest problem with portable tea is the hot water. Transporting cup and tea leaves is easy, but maybe not always easy to find hot water.
ReplyDeleteGood point! Finding hot water is usually difficult. The battery operated heater is a good idea! I have seen a heater for a meal package for army, which heat up by mixing some kind of chemical and water. It could be another option.
