I was introduced to Ramune (ra-moo-nay) a couple of years back by my friend in Kyoto. It's a soda and comes in many flavours, the original being 'sangria' (I have yet to try wasabi or curry flavours).
Here's a bit of info from Wiki:
"It is widely known for the distinctive design of its bottle, often called Codd-neck bottles after the inventor, Hiram Codd. They are made of glass and sealed with a marble; the marble is held in place by the pressure of the carbon dioxide in the drink. To open the bottle, a device to push the marble inward is provided with the bottle. The marble is pushed inside the neck of the bottle where it rattles around while drinking. Two little glass nodes inside the bottle allow the drinker to hook the marble in place while drinking."
Observe...
Not only does it taste special, the packaging/design and method of digestion is cool and fun too, so remember...
For the true taste of paradise this summer, make it Ramune; every day. (available at most oriental supermarkets)
