Red Shiso Juice

Cultural Context

Red shiso juice, made from the vibrant perilla leaves, is a refreshing drink popular in Japan, especially during the summer months. It is often enjoyed for its unique flavor and vibrant color, and is believed to have health benefits. Traditionally, this juice is served chilled, sometimes as a base for cocktails or simply enjoyed on its own. In modern times, it has gained popularity outside of Japan, inspiring various adaptations and uses in beverages worldwide.
