I love hot green tea and especially if it is in one of the little cups like I used to drink every morning at my school in Japan.
My favorite Winter Olympic sport to watch is women’s figure skating for sure. I’ve always enjoyed watching that since I was a young child and brings back memories of watching the Olympics with my family.
Thanks!
