A harvest of plum will come soon

I walked around my hometown about 1 hour yesterday. The walking course had a plum orchard nearby. I found a plum fruit was growth about a half inches size now. It will be a harvest season soon. I will get the plum fruit on the market soon.

I'd like to make a plum liquor (=Umeshu) this year. We drink it usually dilute with cold water. I think this is one of the Japanese taste that gives us a refleshment beverage in a hot summer day.

Key Word : near Tokyo, hiking, walking, ume, umeshu, Japanese taste, refleshment beverage, 青梅, 梅酒
