Everyone has their preferred way of drinking coffee. Maybe you like yours black, or maybe you prefer a bit of sugar in it.

But have you ever tried drinking coffee with salt?

Adding a pinch of salt to your cup of coffee is said to make it taste less bitter.

And putting salt in coffee isn't new. In some countries, such as Turkey and Hungary, people have done this for years.

But a cafe in Vietnam is believed to have started the newest trend — salt coffee.

It's a little different from just putting salt in your coffee, though. Salt coffee is said to have come from a small cafe in Hue ("hwEH"), a city in central Vietnam.

The cafe's name, Ca Phe Muoi, is also the name of the drink, since ca phe means "coffee" and muoi means "salt" in Vietnamese.

Salt coffee is made by mixing sweet condensed milk with a base of Vietnamese coffee, and adding salted cream to the top.

The cafe's owners hoped this unique drink would bring in more customers, and it did.

"In Hue, salt coffee became a daily drink like black coffee or white coffee," the cafe's owners told CNN Travel in June.

And it wasn't just in Hue where people fell in love with salt coffee — the cafe's website sells bottles of it to send around the country, and now Starbucks even sells its own version of salt coffee.

Vietnam is one of the world's largest coffee growers, and has a rich coffee culture.

Salt coffee is just one of many unique Vietnamese coffee drinks.

Others include egg coffee (which has a topping of egg yolks and condensed milk), coconut coffee, and yogurt coffee.

Salt Coffee: A Sweet Drink from Vietnam

Hello everyone, this is Chadwick coming to you from, in my opinion, one of the most wonderful times of the year...

The transition between spring and summer in Michigan...

It is during this time of year that we have recently shaken off the last snowflakes of winter as we entered into spring.

During the spring, flowers began to break forth from the once frozen earth.

The days remained cool, but you could feel the temperature rising and the suns warmth on your skin.

Colorful flowers began to bloom and the honeybees are collecting their pollen.

Summer is approaching.

Bon fires and floating down rivers.

Hikes through the forest.

Barbareques, family and friends.

What is your favorite transition time of the year?

Leave a comment, and thank you for listening.

こんにちは、Atsushiです。
今日の北海道の天気は曇り。
気温は22℃。

先週はとても暑かったですが、今週は少し肌寒いです。

さて、今日は、フリをする、について話します。

日本語の勉強をしていて、
ーのフリをする、という言葉を聞いたことがありますか？

今日のレッスンで出てきておもしろかったので、今日はこの話をします。

フリ、という言葉はよくカタカナで書かれますが、ひらがなでも大丈夫です。そして意味を調べると、ふるまいとかしぐさ、という意味でした。

ふるまいという言葉が転じて、ふり、という言葉になっているようです。

そして、フリをする、の意味は、本当は違うけど、そうであるかのようにふるまうこと、です。

例としては、
聞こえないフリをする
知らないフリをする
気づかないフリをする
とも使えますし、

知っているフリをする
聞こえているフリをする
などにも使えます。

どちらにせよ、状況にあわせて、自分にとって都合の良いようにしたい時にフリをするは使えそうですね。


私は英語のレッスンの時に時々、わかっているフリをして、あとで後悔することがあります。

ちゃんと勉強しないといけないですね。


はい、ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
