  1. It's customary to eat minatsuki (水無月) on this day.

    The sweets, which were designed to mimic slices of ice, are made from 'uirō-mochi' (外郎餠), and are traditionally topped with a layer of red beans.

  2. 🧊A SLICE OF ICE📐

    One sweet that arrives just in time for the fierce summer heat is 'minatsuki' (水無月 aka 'minazuki').

    Like many of Kyōto's mid-year confections, minatsuki are not themselves cooling, but were designed to turn our thoughts to ice and shade.
