animenation's description of ramune
Ever wonder what the name Knights of Ramune meant? Now you can taste the Ramune drink the anime series was named after! A Japanese favorite for over a century, ramune is a classic Japanese carbonated soda famous for its distinct glass bottle.
Rather than use a twist top cap, ramune bottles are closed with a vacuum sealed glass marble. Simply opening the bottle is an adventure by itself! To open your bottle of ramune, punch out the plastic plunger from the perforated ring it's attached to, place it in the hole in the thick plastic mouthpiece, and use it to depress the marble down into the bottle with gentle pressure. Ramune is carbonated, so make sure you've got a towel handy because your ramune will erupt on you, even if it doesn't look shaken up.
