Nothing heralds spring like seasonal menu changes! Starbucks\u2019\u00a0sakura<\/em>\u00a0latte (henceforth not italicized) is much like the pumpkin spice latte in the US: people go crazy for it and it sells out long before sakura season is over. Or, in Kanazawa and the rest of northern Japan, before it even starts.<\/p>\n

This year, the latte was replaced by a sakura white hot chocolate, which I really liked, but unfortunately it\u2019s been gone for a month and the sakura only started blooming this week. Luckily, a sakura \u201clatte\u201d (technically it\u2019s a steamer since there\u2019s no coffee) is really easy to make at home. All you need is preserved edible sakura, boiling water, and milk.<\/p>\n
