Sugar Rush: Yerba Mate Mint

468

at a chicken pesto crepe at Crepe No Ka Oi. it was delicious!

healthy and very filling. happy food!

i was walking outside and heard somebody yell “Uncle!” looked up, at it was Seth! he was telling us that this drink called Yerba Mate is the best! he said it’s healthy and an energy boost so he drinks 2 cans a day.

so i walk into Whole Foods and check what’s in the can. can you believe there is 28 grams of sugar in one drink!!!

that’s 7 packets of sugar in each drink. and Seth drinks 2 per/day? 14 packs of sugar in one day? maybe that’s why he feels so energized. sugar rush!!! haha.

so i get the bottled mint one. there are only 20 grams of sugar in here so only 5 packs of sugar.

since all the boys drink this every single day, Asayama-san and i decided to feel the buzz.

we sit down outside with all the young boys, drink our sugar rush tea, and have a wonderful talk.

then with all that sugar in their blood, the boys went surfing. haha.

Asayama-san and i decided to take a walk because we had some energy too. but all that sugar made us want to surf too!

so we surfed and surfed like little kids! look how beautiful it was!!! then after our sugar rush went away, we went to eat shave ice for more sugar!!! haha.

if you know this girl, tell her i have her photos. and also tell her to “look forward!!!” haha.

was a pleasure to meet this cool surfer Yoshida-san. if you wear a Dove wetsuit, you are indeed a friend. hopefully i’ll be able to go eat at his yakiniku shop in Yotsuya someday!
