What is that drink with the honey?


When they are warming up in the house after the storm, Lisa makes a drink for everyone, but what is it? I thought maybe it was milk and honey, but my husband thinks it's hot chocolate and honey, and my daughter thinks it's tea and honey. What do you guys think?

BTW, I absolutely love Ponyo. I find the movie endearing and enjoyable; it's so soothing and pleasant to watch. I usually pop it in during the cooler months before I go to bed, just something about it that is comforting. My husband hates kids' cartoons and hates Disney-esque stuff, but he does like this movie- it may be our love of Japanese animation though :)

Your daughter is right, it's tea. If you watch it in Japanese with English subtitles, Lisa asks if they want tea. Sosuke also says "thank you for the tea".
