Coffee: Sweet Little Rain + Café: Dulce Lluvia [Eng+Spa]

in We Are Alive Tribe14 days ago (edited)
I've had a good Sunday, but I've been behind on my post for the day for several reasons. On the one hand, I slept during the day because I was working on a job that I woke up from Saturday to Sunday to finish. Elsewhere, there have been different power outages. And, finally, I had to help my brother take care of the cat Vero, who has an injured leg and is very uncooperative in helping us cure him.

As you will see, my #life was a little more hectic than usual. I hope that is not a harbinger of what the week that is about to begin in a few hours is going to be like. Anyway, I'm even doing the publication in fits and starts, so if you saw it when it was first published, you will have noticed that it was incomplete, and now I have the definitive version.

He tenido un buen domingo, pero he estado retrasado en mi publicación del día por varios motivos. Por una parte, dormí durante el día por estar sacando un trabajo con el que amanecí de sábado para domingo para terminarlo. En otra parte, ha habido diferentes cortes de servicio eléctrico. Y, finalmente, me tocó ayudar a mi hermano a atender al gato Vero, que tiene una pata lesionada y es muy poco colaborador para que lo curemos.

Como verás, mi #vida estuvo un poco más agitada de lo usual. Espero que eso no sea un presagio de como va a ser la semana que está por comenzar en unas horas. En fin, incluso la publicación la estoy haciendo a saltos, así que, si la viste al momento en que se publicó por primera vez, habrás notado que estaba incompleta y ahora es que tengo la versión definitiva.

We better change the topic. Today, what helped me get through the day was more than all the coffee. And it turns out that my brother showed me a picture of a rare type of coffee of Asian origin. In this #coffee presentation, the hot liquid is served in a wide cup, and a cloud of Cotton Candy is placed on top. With the steam of the coffee, the sugar cloud above melts and this sugar falls into the cup, sweetening the coffee with a 'Sweet Rain'.

I found the image very interesting, and I searched for it a little, I found that the spread of this novelty began on this side of the world through publications on Instagram. In them, the establishment that had done it was identified, which was Mellower Coffee, in Shanghai.

Mejor cambiemos de tema. Hoy, lo que me ayudó a llevar el día fue más que todo el café. Y resulta que mi hermano me mostró una imagen de un raro tipo de café de origen asiático. En esta presentación de #cafe se sirve el líquido caliente en una taza ancha, y se le coloca por encima una nube de Algodón de Azúcar. Con el vapor del café se derrite la nube de azúcar que tiene por encima y este azúcar cae en la taza, endulzando el café con una ‘Lluvia Dulce’.

Yo encontré muy interesante la imagen y la busqué un poco, me encontré que la difusión de esta novedad comenzaba en este lado del mundo por publicaciones en Instagram. En ellas, se identificaba al local que lo había hecho, que era el Mellower Coffee, de Shanghái.

In some photos, you can't see how the Cotton Candy is hanging over the coffee and gives the illusion that it floats because of the same steam. That's what happened with the first photo I saw of this #drink. But then I found others that showed that there was a lateral support that kept the sugar on the cup, without anything else happening.

I have to say that I found the idea intriguing, but when evaluating the reviews, I found two problems. The first problem is that the mass of the Cotton Candy usually exceeds the size of the cup, and when the rain of condensed sugar falls, it happens to be sprayed on the cup and its surroundings, making the experience of drinking this sticky. .

The second problem would be that, if you leave it for a short time in the sweet rain, then the coffee becomes bitter, but if you leave it for too long, then it becomes so sweet that it looks like an indigestible syrup. I could mention one more problem, which is its price ($9), but (as I read) it is a fairly 'normal' price considering the prices in Shanghai.

Anyway, even if I think it's an interesting coffee, and I love coffee, I highly doubt I'll ever make a cup like this. But who knows, maybe we'll do it out of curiosity or something else in the future.

I say goodbye now, wishing you that you are well, that you have a good start to the work week, and that we can read again another time.

En algunas fotos, no se observa como es que el Algodón de Azúcar está colgando sobre el café y da la ilusión de que flota por el mismo vapor, eso pasó con la primera foto que vi de esta #bebida. Pero luego hallé otras que mostraban que había un soporte lateral que mantenía el azúcar sobre la taza, sin que mediara otra cosa.

He de decir que me pareció intrigante la idea, pero al evaluar las reseñas, encontré dos problemas. El primer problema es que la masa del Algodón de Azúcar excede el tamaño de la taza, usualmente, y al caer la lluvia de azúcar condensada, sucede que se rocía sobre la taza y sus alrededores, con lo que la experiencia de beber esto es pegajoso.

El segundo problema sería que, si lo dejas poco tiempo bajo la lluvia dulce, entonces queda amargo el café, pero si lo dejas demasiado tiempo, entonces, queda tan dulce que parece un jarabe indigesto. Podría mencionar un problema más que es su precio ($9), pero (según leí) es un precio bastante ‘normal’ considerando los precio de Shanghái.

En fin, incluso si me parece un café interesante, y que me encanta el café, dudo mucho que me prepare alguna vez una taza como esta. Pero, quién sabe, tal vez lo hagamos por curiosidad u otra cosa en algún futuro.

Ya me despido, deseándote que tú estés bien, que tengas un buen inicio de semana laboral, y que nos podamos leer de nuevo en otra oportunidad.

Sort:  

La cantidad de preparaciones del café no parece tener fin. Esta receta se me antoja bastante interesante, y no creo que sea demasiado azúcar, no hay demasiado en un buen café.

Es que si se le deja mucho rato bajo la nube de azúcar, la cantidad de azúcar lo pone como un melado, y el alto nivel de dulce puede repugnar a algunas personas. Es que si es muy empalagoso, entonces no les es agradable.

Interesting what people these days come up with 😂 I wouldn't have thought of adding cotton candy atop a hot brewing cup of coffee. Happy new week ahead!

I wouldn't have thought of using cotton candy that way either. But, the idea (although it is aesthetically attractive and has its charm) has flaws that make it nothing more than a curiosity.

And it can be doubted that this coffee preparation will become popular unless the problems I mentioned are resolved.

Doing it out of curiosity sounds very nice 😂. I hope to see your review on it. The week just started, let's see how far it'll go.

I doubt I'll try it these days, partly because I find it cumbersome, and partly because I live far from anywhere that sells cotton candy :)
