TSUJIRI (Pictured)
The Japanese tea ceremony is about more than simply drinking tea – it’s about hospitality, taking a break from the fast-paced world, and pouring your heart into the preparation. TSUJIRI balances the tradition of preparing matcha with modern favourites like floats, shaved ice, and soft ice cream. Try pairing a hot cup of Hojicha with a daifuku or have a slice of yuzu cheesecake with an O-Matcha black sesame latte. 10173 109 Street
