Wednesday In Japan. . . coffee

Some of the best coffee I have ever had, has been in Japan.

In the hot summer months they make the very best Iced Coffee.

Just iced coffee no whipped cream, caramel, chocolate, syrup flavoring

or sprinkles. No sprinkles in coffee !

On cake, yes please but not in my coffee.

 .

I ordered a Japanese cold coffee maker.

You brew the coffee over night in the refrigerator. 

Daughter makes hers with her old Melita drip maker.

I am hoping this might help me with the acid (?)  in the coffee.

Coffee and my new medicines are not playing nice lately.

If you want it hot you can microwave it. 

But in the summer iced coffee even in the morning is just so good.

Especially if it is 85+ at 7 am.

 New coffee maker

 Fun directions in Japanese.

.

 Take re-usable coffee filter and fill to the line with coffee.
Using my blog friend wonderful Holy Cow Coffee Company coffee.

.

 Insert in jar.

.

 Slowly pour good filtered water to the very top slowly over the coffee.

Your coffee is only as good as your water.

.

 Then you let it sleep over night in the refrigerator.

Night night, sweet dreams.

yummmmmmmmm !   I had one glass this morning and we shall see how I do.
It was so good.

Here is your pretty for mid week.

Follower Em, thought the rain didn't look right in my last post.

The summer monsoons are needed but can be very dangerous and destructive.

Not at all like the wonderful and much needed Winter rains, that soak into the earth.

Summer monsoons are fast moving storms.  Rain and wind traveling across the Tucson valley. Leaving a torrent of swift moving runoff that takes rocks, boulders, trees, cars 

and people who think they can cross.  The swift running water flows in the streets
to the washes then into the rivers.
.

Not all the storms are destructive but many are.

Here are a few photos from past summers.
