My thoughts on eating amazake ice cream

This time, I tried one of the recommended ways to eat it: as a sorbet.
When I open the individual wrapper, a milky-white amazake ice cream appears.

As soon as I take a bite, the aroma of rice koji amazake fills my mouth. This amazake ice cream has a gentle sweetness that reminds me of rice koji amazake.

Amazake ice cream has a unique texture—it’s moist and soft rather than crunchy.
