Best Way To Simulate Licking A Nine-Volt Battery

Haru

One of the strangest gustatory mindfucks since the Miracle Fruit, the Sichuan button is a little yellow flower packed with a natural painkiller that makes your tongue numb and tingly. Perhaps you just read that sentence and thought, “I must try this now.” No problem. Sushi joint HARU has two drinks — the Electriquila and the Electric Lavender — that come garnished with the buttons. Verdict? It feels like effervescent worms burrowing into your tongue. Only pleasant. You know you want it.
