Today I am going to be making my special summer drinks.UME, the Japanese plum, has a tart flavor which is so refreshing. We make Ume syrup and Umeshu with those under-ripe green plums.Ume is one of the Eastern medicine ingredients.It releases heat from your body and recovers your body from fatigue. Pink lemonade is not a Japanese drink, but I make it every summer.Because it's not easy to find it in any grocery store in Japan.I hope you'll like it!Umeshu1kg Ume (under-ripe Japanese green plum)700g rock sugar1000~1200ml Shochu (25~35% alcohol)Ume syrup ( green/pink)1kg Ume (under-ripe Japanese green plum)1kg rock sugarPink Lemonade3 large lemon120g granulated sugar40g honey2 tablespoons dried lavenderFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/kitchenprincessbamboo/Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/akino_ogata/ Check out my store on Amazon!You will find what I am using in my video.https://www.amazon.com/shop/japaneseeverydayfoodkitchenprincessbambooKitchen Princess Bamboo earns a small amount of commission from the store.
