Hi, could anybody from Japan assist here please.
My wife and I got a present from our Japanese friends. A lovely bottle of what seems to be 25 % alcohol content liqueur. We tried to find any information on it and if there are any specific way we could drink that ( I know it may seems funny) so we can en...
Just checked. Does not exist in database 🙄
Will probably chill half and warm another half and see how it goes 😆
I used picture search
Suppose this website can help, some serving tips. Just an age check to do to enter. Dirk

I will definitely try one with orange , soda and ice. Tried to find Hoppy in KL , but local Isetan does not have it on stock. Living over 30 years in Japan must have give you an opportunity to try many many things. Just few days back my 10 year sold son a...
Great to hear. Enjoy and have a great weekend
Those kara-age look professionally made and delicious. It will be nice when you can again travel to Japan. I have tasted lots of things, most of which I like, but there are somethings that still aren't for me. Fun to try, nevertheless.
Thanks everyone for recommendations!
