(SPOT.ph) In Japan, the period of mid-March to early May signifies the celebration of all things pretty and pink—that is, of course, because it's cherry-blossom season! Cherry blossoms (a.k.a. sakura) have a deep significance in Japanese culture, being a metaphor for the beauty of living and a symbolic flower of spring—plus, nothing beats the sight of cherry blossom trees in bloom and their pale-pink petals against the blue sky. While travel is currently off the table for most of us, the good news is, a number of stores and cafés have sought to it to bring the experience to us in the form of one-of-a-kind, cherry blossom-themed sips. You can get these beverages delivered, too.
Taste these cherry-blossom drinks that you can get in Manila right now:
