Why not try Koubai-eki (紅梅液) during the hot season? Takano Shoten (高野商店), which produces Koubai-eki, is a long-established store in the Imajo district dating back to the Edo period. It's the syrup that forms during the production of their popular sweet-syrup ume paste, and amazingly the only ingredients are plums and sugar! Ume is known to help relieve tiredness and guard against summer heat fatigue, making it a good choice in hot weather.

You should definitely see the flowers on rainy days at Seumo Park!
It is the droplets that have gathered on the lotus leaves.
Lotus leaves are highly water-repellent, so they collect water neatly.
The rainwater floating on the lotus leaves sparkles like a work of art.

The pink lotus in the second photo and the white lotus in the third photo are actually the same lotus!
This variety is called kosanshoku, and its buds and early blooms look pink as in the first photo, but by the third to fourth day they change from pink to white!

Yashagaike sits on the border between Minami-Echizen, Fukui Prefecture and Ibigawa, Gifu Prefecture.
From a little higher up, doesn’t it look like some kind of shape? 💕
The view of Yashagaike from a short climb above the pond gives you a slightly special feeling.

“Kogane no Ume” is one of Minami-Echizen Town’s specialties.
Because “Kogane no Ume” ripens later than other plums, it takes about one more month before it is ready to harvest.
The green fruit turns yellow and fills the air with a sweet, fruity scent that makes you want to take a deep breath.
They are sold at the Roadside Station Minami Echizen Sankairi during the harvest season.

“Sea glass” refers to fragments of glass you can find along seashores and the shores of large lakes. Their unique muted tones and delicate beauty feel like gifts from the sea. Accessories made with that sea glass are sold at “Dotto Kitamae,” located on the grounds of the Kitamaebune Shipowners’ House Ukon Family Museum!
When light passes through, sea glass shines with a distinctive glow—why not add it to your new-life wardrobe for a stylish touch?

The heat has cooled down, and it’s about time for outdoor picnics🌸
.
When that time comes, I recommend the bread and baked sweets from Karion (Hanasato-ne)!
They offer classic breads like anpan and melon pan, plus seasonal breads, so you’ll have a hard time choosing which one to pick💦
Their gateau au chocolat is moist inside, richly chocolatey, and more substantial than it looks😍
.
Karion’s breads and sweets are also sold at the Roadside Station Minami Echizen Sanka-ri in Minami-Echizen town, Shikisai, and the Honey Nanjo store!
