Collection: Ramune and other Japanese sodas
Ramune is a refreshing Japanese drink whose name derives from the English word "lemonade". In 1884, a Japanese entrepreneur by the name of Jitaro Kyuya introduced the first version of Ramune under the name of "ice medicine". His idea was to create a refreshing drink for hot Japanese summers. Unlike traditional soda bottles, Ramune is sealed with a glass ball that acts like a cork. To open it, you press firmly on the ball while holding it in place, creating pressure that releases the drink. Over the decades, Ramune has become a popular drink in Japan and beyond, with a variety of flavors available.

Where does ramune come from?
Ramune was introduced to Japan in 1876, during the Meiji era, by a British merchant. The name "ramune" comes from the Japanese pronunciation of "lemonade". This bottle, fitted with a glass ball to seal its contents, has become emblematic. Today, ramune is a must-have drink at Japanese festivals (matsuri).
How to open a bottle of ramune?
To open a bottle of ramune, press down on the glass ball with the tool provided (usually a plastic cap). This pressure causes the ball to drop into the bottle, allowing the beverage to flow out.
Why is ramune so popular?
For many Japanese, it's synonymous with nostalgia and evokes memories of childhood.
Ramune attracts many foreigners thanks to its unique design, original opening method and exotic flavors. It is often perceived as a cultural experience in its own right, as well as being a delicious drink.
What can ramune be eaten with?
Ramune goes well with Japanese snacks such as takoyaki (octopus dumplings), okonomiyaki (Japanese pancakes), or edamame (soy beans).
It's also ideal with sweets such as mochi, dorayaki (pancakes filled with red bean paste) or taiyaki (fish-shaped waffles).
Mix ramune with fresh fruit such as strawberries, lemons or melon to create a personalized sparkling drink.
