Beautiful video. Amazake is a sweet rice drink and mochi is pounded sweet rice. Not sweetened rice but a different type of rice called sweet rice. But they do add sugar to it sometimes. Mochi genmai we used to make both.

What an incredibly neat festival! All the igloos together, and the fire light is just so pretty. <3

I could go for some amazake.

In a way it makes me think of apple cider but white like eggnog.

The hut with the most fun always seems to be the one where the liquor is flowing.
