Thirsty? Have a drink the Hero of the Hidden Leaf would be proud of! In the USA and Canada, select Asian grocery stores and now offering Naruto ramune! Not ramen, the food Naruto loves to eat, but ramune! What is ramune you ask? It’s a lemon-lime carbonated soft drink originating from the great country of Japan.
Ramune bottles have a unique design, often called Codd-neck bottles, and are sealed with a marble. To open the bottle, the marble has to be pushed inward toward the neck of the bottle using a provided tool where the marble then rattles around while drinking. The Naruto-branded ramune is a recently released item approved by North American licensor Viz Media, but you can see a video of a Naruto cosplayer from almost 7 years ago in 2007 open a regular bottle of ramune. The struggle is real!

^ You can find a list of stores that sells the drink in the above link.
Damn, I want to get my hands on these drinks. I'm not too fond of soft drinks but I just want to try ramune at least once. It's actually the first time I heard of ramune Lol
Also, check out the video above. It shows you how time-consuming the process of opening the bottle really is.
