I don't know about you, but lately all I've been able to think about is my favorite summer drink, Ramune Iced Coffee! The perfect mix of sweet, tart, and a unique savoriness that only whisky can give makes this a must-have in the summer heat. It could easily pass as a high-end cocktail, but in reality you don't need to be a world-class barista or have an expensive distillery at hand to make it - all you need is to follow a few simple steps.
What I love most about Ramune Iced Coffee is that it combines some of my most favorite flavors - whiksy, honey, coffee bitters, and a hint of citrus by way of a lemon peel twist - to create an unbeatable sensation of refreshment. It's almost impossible to replicate the flavor without the right ingredients but luckily each of them can be found in any well-stocked kitchen pantry. And if you let the syrup cool down overnight, this wonderful drink will become your go-to summer friend.
Grab your shaker, honey and whisky, and get ready for a ride - you won't regret it and your taste buds will be thanking you for giving them such a heavenly

Ingredients
- 100g honey
- 30ml Japanese whisky (we used Suntory Toki)
- 3 dashes of coffee bitters
- ice
- lemon peel twist, to garnish
Instructions
- Step 1: Place a kettle on the stovetop and bring the water to a boil. Mix honey with 100ml of boiled water in a heat-resistant bowl. Stir until the honey is dissolved and then set it aside to cool completely overnight. Store the resulting syrup in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Step 2: Take a stirring glass, measuring jug, or pint glass, and add the whisky and 15ml of the honey syrup. Dash in the bitters and add ice up to the rim. Stir with a bar spoon or any long spoon for 10-20 seconds (more stirring equals less alcoholic taste; stir longer for greater dilution).
- Step 3: Pour the mixture through a sieve into a martini or coupe glass and garnish with a lemon peel twist.
