ii. the jasmine dragon

[bodybreakdown]

I found uncle's tea shop, the Jasmine Dragon. It looks almost exactly like the one in Ba Sing Se, just smaller.

It smells a little strange. No one's been around here for a while I guess.
But I'll get this place up and running in no time. Uncle would've liked that. My tea isn't as great as his though--and I should learn how to make ...coffee, was it

Coffee is made with ground beans, and there are several different kinds. It's usually better with certain flavorings, like vanilla or almond, but there are quite a few people who prefer it plain.

It seems coffee is more popular than tea here.
I'll take note of that, thanks. What do the beans look like?

[thesilverdawn]

The beans are actually inside the berries of a coffee plant. And they look kind of like this [He draws a coffee bean.]

I think you can get coffee beans from one of the shops, though.

Oh... I didn't think they would be so...bug-like. I'll keep an eye out for them in the shops. Should be easier than looking through the forest.

[thesilverdawn]

They are kind of bug-like, I guess. Oh. Tell me when you start making coffee, I wouldn't mind coming down to the teashop to drink some.

Sure. It'll take longer before I serve coffee than tea, but I'll make an announcement for you, err--what can I call you? I'm Zuko by the way.
