  1. My favorite drink is called Almdudler. I drank it when I was in Austria last summer. It is like apple soda, but I don't know how they make it!
    I also like coffee with lots of milk~ it tastes bittersweet and gives me energy!!

    My favorite drink is water!!
    Every morning I boil some water and carry a tumbler of it.
    The reason is very simple, water is very cheap.

  4. Hi,Matt!!
    My favorite drink is fruit flavored tea.
    If we make tea by pouring boiling water onto tea leaves and put a slice of fruits or fruits juice into the tea, we can enjoy drinking delicious fruit flavored tea. But I don't know this is right way to make it.
    I love tea flavored with lemon, orange and peach.

    See you next class!

  6. Hi Matt!

    My favourite drinks are cassis-based cocktails.
    I always drink a glass of cassis-orange cocktail first while others order beers at the restaurants or bars. I love sweet and a little sour drinks. I'm not sure how to make them..Perhaps you need to mix something together.

    See you!

  7. Hello,Matt!

    My favorite drink is oolong tea.
    I heard that it is good for burning of fat!
    Therefore, I often drink it!
    I usually make oolong tea from packs of oolong tea sold at supermarket.
    I have never drunk real oolong tea made in China.

    See you next time!

  9. Hello, Matt!
    My favorite drink is ginger ale, but I don't know how to make it.
    When I go to a first-food restaurant, I usually drink ginger ale with a humburger. Maybe these contain a lot of calories, but I like this combination!

    See you next class!

  10. Hello!

    I like coffee very much.
    It tastes great and smells nice.
    And strong one helps keep you awake.
    So I sometimes drink it before I go to school so that I won't get sleepy.

    By the way, I looked up an exact English word for the word "U" (of my family name "Ukawa") in the dictionary the other day.
    "U" means a cormorant in English.

    See you next week.

  11. Hi! Matt.

    My favorite drink is CALPIS. It is called Calpico in U.S.
    I don't know how to make, but I heard that we can make from yoghurt. It can be rumor.

    See you!

  12. Hi Matt!

    My favorite drink is now hot milk. Recently I drank too much coffee, and sometimes I couldn't stop drinking until I have stomachache... Since I have noticed that the cause of the stomachache was just some cups of coffee a day, I started to drink hot milk instead of hot strong black coffee (but only after 5:00 PM). Preparation is quite easy. Pour the milk into the pot and put it on the cooker until you see some bubbles the rim of the pot. Then, pour it into your favorite mug. This is the most important thing for the preparation. :D
    You can sleep really well, after you drink special hot milk from your favorite mug.

    See you next class!

  13. Hi Matt!
    I like to drink coffee, tea, also Japanese green tea, fruit juice and so on. But I don't know how to make these drinks...or maybe it's too easy making them to explain how to make them, if you buy so-called instant coffee, tea bags, whatever. But I've never bought tea bags of the green tea. I always put the tea leaves in a small pot, give some hot water into it, wait for a couple of minuites and pour it into my cup. And as I war a child, I tried to make lemon soda myself. To make it you've only to mix lemon, soda and sugar, but a huge amount of sugar!

  14. Hi Matt!
    My favorite drink is water. Sometimes I feel like drinking other bevarages, like coca cola, Calpis and tea, but I love water. It's healty and I feel that my body is becoming clean if I drink it.
    I don't think that I need to explain hot to make it, because we only have to buy the bottle of water or in Japan to turn on the tap to drink it.

    see you later! Eriko Kato th4

  15. Hi,Matt.

    My favorite drink is green tea.
    I always go outside with a bottle of green tea.
    Somehow it can make me relax.
    I don't know why but it may remind me something like Japanese spirit.haha

  16. Hi,Matt!

    My favorite drink is calpis water.
    We can buy ready-made calpis water, but we can make it by ourselves. First, buy the undiluted solution of calpis water, and thin down it by cold water.Thay's all!
    (But I don't know how to make the undiluted solution..Maybe it is an industrial secret.)

    Calpis water is so deliciouse especially in the summer.

    See you next class!

  17. Super comments everybody!

    My favorite drink is probably beer. I don't drink it so much, but in the summer I like to sit outside and drink an ice-cold bottle of beer. It's bubbly, a little bitter and a little sweet...
    I made beer one time when I was a student, but now I can't remember how to do it...

    see you tomorrow!

  18. Hi matt,

    My favourite drink is milk tea. I don't drink it so often but after club activity I sometimes buy it at a convinience store.

    Milk tea is not too sweet and it make me relax. That's why I like it.

    I can make one on my own but I prefer the ones in the shops.

    See you in the next lesson,

  19. Hello Matt,

    My favorite drink is umesyu(plum brandy).
    It's easy to make it, but it takes a long time!
    We only have to put plums and sugar into liquor and to wait about six month.
    Of course we can buy umesyu in supermarket,but homemade is more delicious!

    See you tomorrow!

  23. Hi,Matt!

    I love going to cafĂ© ‘Segafredo’.
    All Segafredo’s drinks are very good, but my favorite is cappuccino.
    I do not know how to make it.
    But I think I have to need a espresso machine when I make it. It must be very very expensiveT.T.
    Fortunately, I am able to go Segafredo at least twice a week to study with my friends^^;;.

    See you tomorrow.

  26. Hi, Matt.

    My favorite drink is cocoa, especially VANHOUTEN.
    I like very sweet dessert and drink. I want to eat chocolates, ice creams and brown sugar everyday! So I like cocoa very much.
    But recently VANHOUTEN have been expensive. I usually drink green tea everyday...

    See you.

  27. Hi, Matt!

    My favorite drink is grapefruit juice.
    How to make it is so simple: squeeze grapefruit!
    But, for me, it's really troublesome.
    So, I usually buy it in stores.
    Various brands are sold in stores, but I like "Gokuri" the best.
    Have you ever drunk it?
    This is the URL of "Gokuri".

    It's so nice!! Pulpy!!

    See you!
