  1. Wow, the first drink (Botanical Cocktail) looks like a work of art, but the Penicillin Cocktail is definitely worth a try!

  2. Thank you for not only showing awesome places in Tokyo but, as an English teacher, thanks for teaching my Junior High students English 😂.

  3. Wow, every place looked fantastic, I'm a big fan of cocktails. Shizuka just makes every episode fun and interesting.

  4. Seems fun.
    Could we get behind the scene videos breaking down what a day of filming these are like? Or win a guest spot on these to tag along?

  5. When in Japan, I mainly go to the Japanese cocktail bars; which tend to be more formal and serious. So it's nice to find out that there are now more seeminly casual bars which foreigners might find more fun and less intmidating.

  6. Well, if it was noon in Japan, it was 5:00 p.m. in Hawaii (but the previous day)!!! Great video as always! You're getting really GOOD at alcohol vids! LOL! BTW, your dress looked like Hawaiian ALOHA print!
