She suddenly clinged to the cup of tea of hers, she focused her gaze on it's content, apparently this brought back some good memories from the past, as she was intending to share them with the only person present.
Last time i've been drinking tea almost two years ago: when parents showed me the Bishamon and proposed it was brought to Kyushu to turn into my possession as soon as i turn twenty; on the next day, we've celebrated my birthday, and all the guests tended to drink exactly the same tea; i never knew for sure, but, i suppose - it was my parents' favourite tea and they acknowledged no other drinks or tea sorts. I have intentionally remembered this recipe to recreate it for someone i consider 'a good friend of mine.' So - please, enjoy your tea, Alex.
She took a sip of her tea, continued with a warm smile on her lips.
Oh, and...
Sanako stuttered for a moment, thinking about the best way to represent what she had in mind.
...Well, since this might recall to a pleasant nostalgia... i might study those drinks and make some of them from time to time for you, like a true bartender. Something tells me - you would enjoy it.
