0:00stirring layered drink The scene opens with a close-up shot of a transparent, faceted glass resting on a light wooden cutting board. Inside the glass, a visually appealing layered drink is being stirred by a clear glass straw. The bottom layer is a vibrant green liquid, indicative of sencha tea, while the top layer is a thick, frothy, light purple or brown foam, likely cocoa foam. A hand with fair skin, wearing a dark-colored long-sleeved shirt, holds the top of the straw, gently swirling it into the drink. The background is softly blurred, showing a bright window with diffused natural light, and glimpses of a white mug and a dark box. Text overlays read "Japanese Sencha" and "with Cocoa Foam" with an emoji. The lighting is soft and natural, emphasizing the colors and textures of the drink.
0:02adding cocoa powder The camera maintains a close-up shot of a small, clear glass measuring cup, shaped like a beaker with a spout, placed on the same light wooden cutting board. A hand is seen pouring a spoonful of dark brown cocoa powder into the empty measuring cup. The powder is fine and appears rich in color. In the background, a white mug and a dark box with gold accents and a logo are visible, hinting at a tea brand (Harney & Sons). The background is still softly blurred, with natural light coming from a window. Text overlays appear, first saying "one tablespoon" and then "Cocoa powder 🍫", with a chocolate bar emoji. The lighting is bright and even, highlighting the details of the ingredients and the pouring action.
0:04pouring hot water This shot continues with the close-up framing of the small glass measuring cup on the wooden board. The cocoa powder from the previous scene is now at the bottom of the cup. A sleek, black gooseneck kettle is pouring a steady stream of hot water into the cup, mixing with the cocoa powder. The water causes the powder to swirl and dissolve, beginning to form a dark liquid. The background remains consistent with the white mug and the dark 'Harney & Sons' box, bathed in natural light from the window. A text overlay shows "and". The focus is on the blending of ingredients, with steam faintly visible from the hot water.
0:05adding heavy cream The scene maintains the close-up on the glass measuring cup containing the cocoa and water mixture, now a dark brown liquid. A different clear glass container, possibly a small pitcher or beaker, is held by a hand and pours a thick, white liquid, presumably heavy cream, into the cocoa mixture. The cream mixes with the dark liquid, changing its consistency and color slightly. The background elements – the white mug, the 'Harney & Sons' box, and the bright window – are still present and softly blurred. A text overlay reads "and heavy cream if you're feeling bold". The lighting continues to be bright and natural, ensuring clarity of the ingredients and the mixing process.
0:06frothing cocoa mixture The close-up shot focuses on the glass measuring cup, which now holds the combined cocoa, water, and cream mixture. A silver, battery-operated handheld frother is inserted into the liquid. A hand with fair skin holds the frother, operating it to create a thick, airy foam. The liquid visibly transforms as it's frothed, becoming lighter in color and increasing in volume. The background elements (white mug, 'Harney & Sons' box, window) remain consistently out of focus. A text overlay states "froth the delightful foam ✨" with a sparkle emoji. The natural lighting highlights the frothing action and the emerging foam texture.
0:08holding tea packet The camera shifts to a close-up of a hand holding a gold-colored tea bag packet. The packet is rectangular and features elegant, ornate designs around the edges. The brand name "HARNEY & SONS" is clearly visible at the top, along with "JAPANESE SENCHA" and "NOURISHING GREEN TEA." The hand has fair skin and is holding the packet between the thumb and forefinger, showcasing the product. The background is a soft blur of the dark 'Harney & Sons' tea box from previous scenes, creating a cohesive visual narrative. A text overlay reads "Now grab your Japanese Sencha tea". The lighting is natural and even, highlighting the packet's details and brand information.
0:09steeping sencha tea The shot returns to a medium close-up of the transparent, faceted glass on the wooden board. A tea bag, attached to a string, is now submerged in the bottom of the glass. A black gooseneck kettle, held by a hand, is pouring hot water into the glass, covering the tea bag. The water is clear, and as it fills the glass, the tea begins to steep, very faintly coloring the water. The background includes the white mug, the 'Harney & Sons' box, and the bright window. A text overlay states "and let it steep for 2 to 3 minutes". The lighting is soft and natural, emphasizing the steeping process and the purity of the water.
The scene continues with a medium close-up of the faceted glass, now containing the pale green sencha tea. A small, clear glass measuring spoon or container is held by a hand and pours a small amount of light amber liquid, identified as vanilla, into the tea. The liquid gracefully swirls into the sencha. The background remains consistent with the white mug, the 'Harney & Sons' box, and the bright window, all softly blurred. A text overlay shows "add some vanilla 🤤" with a drooling face emoji. The natural lighting emphasizes the blending of the liquid ingredients.
The medium close-up shot of the faceted glass on the wooden board persists. The glass now contains the green sencha tea with vanilla. A clear plastic ice scoop, held by a hand, is tipping crushed ice into the glass. The ice falls gracefully into the tea, cooling it down and preparing it for the final layers. The background elements (white mug, 'Harney & Sons' box, window) are still present and softly blurred. A text overlay reads "fill your ice up". The natural lighting highlights the cold, frosty texture of the ice and the refreshing nature of the drink.
0:14adding cocoa foam The final scene is a medium close-up of the faceted glass, now containing iced green sencha tea. A small, clear glass measuring cup, with a wooden handle and a spout, is held by a hand and pours the rich, thick, frothy cocoa foam created earlier onto the surface of the iced tea. The dark purple-brown foam gently cascades over the ice and forms a distinct, opaque layer on top of the green tea. The background, including the white mug, 'Harney & Sons' box, and the bright window, remains consistently blurred. Text overlays read "and gently place your cocoa foam on top of the tea." followed by "Voila". The natural lighting emphasizes the luxurious texture of the foam and the final layered presentation of the drink.
