It started out as just a “Pink Monoke“, but the number of Ens and Ohs just kept on growing the more of them I had.

So this is the last of the Ramune based drinks from Solstone. Some of you will be shouting hooray. Others who have actually gotten hooked on the delicious nature, and the creepy fact that they fluoresce, will has a sad. What makes it worse is that supplies of Ramune will still be limited for another month or so in Melbourne, at the time I post this, due to Manifest purchasing so much of the import stock last quarter.

So, technically speaking, this should have been called a Pink Mononoke, but there’s a delightful legal complication with that that I’d rather not get into… Instead, let’s get you into one of these.Glass: Highball

Ingredients:

• 15ml Cointreau
• 30ml gin
• 200ml Peach Ramune
• dash of peach bitters

Method: Build over ice

Garnish: As the inspiration for this takes place in a forest, slowly being destroyed by the encroaching mining settlement, it only makes sense to garnish this drink with industrial waste and mining tailings the sorts of things you’d find in a forest: Fresh mint, possibly smashed against the palm of your hand, or frozen raspberries.
