What is Tamagozake?
First, if you search for the general "tamagozake"

It becomes. As you might imagine, it has a strong image of a ``sweet drink.'' The image is that it has a more custard-like taste than amazake.
Katsuyama Sake Brewery's ``Original Tamagosake'' has the advantage of being ``delicious whether chilled or warmed,'' while regular ``tamagoshu'' is often preferred as a hot drink.

Actual drinking review and arrangement
Let's drink it right away! As I was thinking about this, there was a note on the bottle explaining how to drink it deliciously, so I went to a nearby convenience store and bought some milk, ginger ale, and ice cream to make it.
It sure looks delicious no matter how you arrange it! I can't resist this kind of challenge!
You can't start unless you know the original taste of rabbit and horn. I'll try it as is first.
A creamy texture. It has a sweetness similar to custard cream, and has a slight eggy taste. And the scent of alcohol wafts through your nose. The alcohol content is a bit high at around 10%, so I like the taste as long as it feels like I'm drinking it slowly. It may be difficult for people who don't like Japanese sake.
Egg sake mixed with milk (1 egg sake: 2 milk)
Next is egg sake mixed with milk .
As I expected, the taste of the custard cream became mellow. And a slight eggy taste. It smelled like sake, and when I asked a friend who doesn't like sake to drink it, he said, ``It smells like sake, so to be honest, I might not be able to handle it.''
Personally, I think women who like alcohol will like it. It might be a good idea to add a little coffee.
Egg sake mixed with ginger ale (1 part egg sake: 1 part ginger ale)
Next was egg sake mixed with ginger ale .
I was surprised when I drank it! delicious! ! To be honest, I didn't have high expectations before drinking it, but the alcoholic taste disappeared and it was easy to drink. I gulp it down. An acquaintance who couldn't drink the milk-based drink from earlier was also excited and said, ``This is delicious! It's like carbonated kapis!''
I would love to go on a hot day or after work. It's refreshing, and I highly recommend everyone to try it and think you've been fooled! ! It will probably exceed your imagination! The only thing you have to be careful about is drinking too much! Well, I was surprised.
Vanilla ice cream with egg sake
The last thing I tried was vanilla ice cream with egg sake . At first I only drank a little, but I wanted more and ended up drinking more egg sake. It has more flavor and is very delicious. This might be even more delicious if you eat it with coffee! Maybe it would go well with chocolate ice cream too!?
At the end
I reviewed the historical Tamagozake, and I was especially surprised by the ginger ale wari! It was an unexpected combination, and it went far beyond my imagination.
``Alcohol is a great medicine, but it is the source of all kinds of illnesses,'' and it is true that if you do not drink too much, you can prevent lifestyle-related diseases and have health benefits.
Tamagozake has long been popular as a drink to help you catch a cold, but it is also said to have the effect of helping you sleep better.
It would be great if the slightly sweet and easy-to-drink Tamagozake could have beauty and health benefits. Alcohol in moderation promotes blood circulation and raises body temperature, making it a recommended drink to have before bed.
In the upcoming season, if you are worried about your body getting cold from the air conditioner or having trouble sleeping due to summer fatigue, why not give it a try? It's also a stylish gift.
