Hapimomi consists of parts such as a silicon outer cup, an icy bag-shaped inner cup, a lid, and a spoon with a straw.
There are 3 steps to make. First, cool the Hapimomi body in the freezer for about 6 hours. At the same time, let's cool the juice in the refrigerator.
Then put your favorite juice in the cup. This time, I chose mango juice, which seems to be the first choice.
All you have to do is close the lid and "fir" from the top of the cup for at least 1 minute (open the top cap).
Keeping rubbing for a few minutes ... Mysteriously, the juice turned into sherbet!
When you take a bite with the included long spoon, it feels as smooth as a frozen drink sold at a cafe! It is a dessert that is perfect for hot days, with a moderately moisturizing throat. Just freezing the juice will make it tick, and if you want to make sorbet from scratch, you have to stir it many times over several hours, which is much easier than that.
◆ I also tried freezing such drinks
That's why I was instantly captivated by Hapimomi. After that, I will introduce the drinks that were more delicious than the ones I tried as they were.
・ A new sensation of shwashwa x crispy! Soft drinks
When you make Hapimomi with a carbonated drink, the frozen part and the non-frozen part are mixed, giving it a stimulating and addictive taste. Especially the energy drink type has a flavor that is not so much even with ice cream, so I made it many times.
・ Refreshing on hot days! Sports drinks After playing or exercising under the scorching sun, you can rehydrate while cooling by making it with a sports drink system. Among them, the refreshing lychee flavor "Salty lychee from the kitchen of the world" is suitable for happiness! The taste is lighter than that of fruit juice, but you can enjoy it with a refreshing taste of shaved ice.
・ Alcohol such as sour and cocktails
This is for adults, but sweet drinks such as cocktails and sour are also recommended. The finish is a little loose, but it will be a keen and cold frozen drink with the same strength. However, since it is alcohol, please be careful not to accidentally drink it!
◆ Be careful of freezing preparation and care
The important thing to note about Hapimomi is that the freezing time is long, so be sure to prepare. If you inadvertently forget to cool it, it is faster to go to a convenience store to buy ice cream. Also, the inner cup has folds and is a little difficult to wash, but wash it thoroughly and keep it clean at all times.
◆ Why is it frozen?
By the way, why can you make frozen with this cup in the first place? At the beginning, I was laughing at "mystery!", But I thought about the mechanism seriously like a member of society (?).
According to the product information, the liquid in the inner cup is "saline". Therefore, it does not harden even when frozen due to the freezing point depression, and the softness of "mumble" is maintained. The salt solution itself has dropped below freezing, so when you add a drink, it quickly cools and begins to freeze, and when you knead it, it crumbles and has a crispy texture.
◆ You can use it for many seasons
The manufacturer Doshisha also sells a replacement inner cup (300 yen), so you can rest assured that it is not disposable. Mix two kinds of drinks, try topping with fruits ... I want to fully enjoy this summer!
