Coffee… It helps make us less ornery in the morning, and now it’s being used to tell a touching love story.

Latte Motion is a cute animation that uses upwards of 1,000 cups of coffee, latte art, and stop-motion animation to create the story of a couple getting together.

The animation is brought to us by Japanese company, Ajinomoto General Foods, to promote its latte drink flavoring, Maxim Stick. Please watch this.
