Mugicha is the japanese word for barley tea. It's usually served unsweetened and chilled, and is a popular summertime drink, and this particular one is a collaboration with the San-X mascot Rilakkuma, or Relaxing Bear.

I usually get some kind of tea when I go to the asian supermarket, just a little something to drink on the way home. I saw these cuties and noticed they were the same price as the other, non mascot-branded teas. They even had two different designs!

Look at the cute lil bear!

The label is Chairoikoguma's face! Very fitting for the bear who's name basically means "Little Tea Colored Bear."

There were several more from the same brand of different tea varieties, with each type having two different label designs, and even the caps had cute little pictures on them! The tea itself was nice and smooth, not bitter or oversteeped. Very refreshing!

They're so cute that I might even get a few more if they still have them.
