Kanpai at Danny's Japanese Cocktail Bar with the JAPANESE HORCHATA
How to mix...
We start with the homemade Mame San coconut fat wash!
Mix 200ml Mame San & 50gr solid coconut oil for 30sec, pour off into a wide glass, lid on and put in the freezer for a few hours until the fat is hard. Then remove the solid fat and filter the liquid through a coffee paper filter or a fine sieve until fat residues are gone (makes about 200ml, lasts several months in the fridge. Quantities can be increased, of course).
Now 60ml Mame San coconut fat wash (alternatively Mame San + 10ml coconut syrup), 15ml yuzu juice (alternatively 20ml lemon juice), 150ml rice water/drink, 10ml vanilla syrup and 10ml cinnamon syrup in a shaker with 10 ice cubes, shake vigorously & quickly for 30sec - to create a nice foam - strain into a long drink glass, sprinkle with cinnamon, kanpai!
Danny's tip...
Put the glasses in the freezer beforehand. Because we want to enjoy a nice cold-shaken cocktail that stays cold for a long time... ;)
How it tastes...
'In Mexico you can enjoy it at every corner: Agua de Horchata. And the Japanese interpretation of it is simply a blast!
The earthy-sweet, flavorful Mame San, paired with coconut, vanilla, yuzu, rice water & cinnamon result in an extremely drinkable, aromatic and at the same time harmonious drink - with an ideal, long-lasting acidity as well as a flattering, creamy crèminess. A made-up summer dream! Believe me: you won't and can't let the glass out of your hand...'

Kanpai at Danny's Japanese Cocktail Bar with the MAMEGRONI
How to mix...
Put 50ml Mame San, 10ml freshly cooked Sesame Syrup, 10ml Yuzu Juice (alternatively 15ml Lemon Juice), 30ml Cold Brew Genmaicha Tea (alternatively pour classic warm, but only steep 60sec & cool down) and optionally 2 dashes of Yuzu Bitters in a mixing glass with lots of ice and stir it cold for 30sec.
Then strain everything into an Old Fashioned glass on one large ice cube and finish with an elegant garnish of a seaweed rice chip. Kanpai.
Danny's tip...
The Cold Brew version of Genmaicha tea provides a very subtle, elegant flavour. The flavour profile remains typical and ethereally fresh, with no bitterness, but the fruity nuances come to the fore much more nicely.
And 1 big ice cube in the glass (e.g. 5x5x5cm) offers less surface than several small ones. So you have less dilution in the cocktail and the Mamegroni still stays cold for a long time.
How it tastes...
'The MAMEGRONI promises 100% Japan!
The taste of roasted sesame combines just perfectly with the 3 bean varieties of the Mame San (sword, azuki, soya bean).
The Genmaicha, with its taste of green tea and toasted puffed rice, very happily joins in and deliciously combines the two plants that are most important to Japan: Tea and rice.
The yuzu juice brings the typical Japanese tangy acidity.
And if you nibble on the seaweed rice chip in between, you'll discover even more likeable Japan: because the salt pleasantly tickles your tongue...'

Mame San 'Wellness'
Mame San is a Sake Flavoured Vodka with 40% vol. So if you like it a little more smooth, dilute the Mame San with sparkling mineral water.
Because each individual bean delivers an unmistakable aroma for perfect harmony, the outstanding Zürichsee water together with the sake (Junmai) at the end the perfect crowning glory of the product.
Mame San 'Wellness' - Slightly diluted, but still tasty, sweet, earthy and fresh.
Kanpai! Cheers!
Mame San 'Ginger Brew'
Mame San is flavoured with sake and distilled from the sword bean, the azuki bean and the soya bean.
For a naturally cloudy taste, Mame San mixes perfectly with a ginger brew. Natural ginger juice, extracts of lemongrass and pepper, depending on the product sweetened with apple syrup and refined with real beer seasoning.
Mame San 'Ginger Brew' - Spicy, slightly tangy and in combination with the three unmistakable beans, a real strong taste.
Kanpai! Cheers!
Mame San 'On the rocks'
'What do you mix sake with? There were many answers to this question, but not the one, not the perfect one. So we 'laid our hands on' ourselves and created a new drop with Mame San, which perfectly combines sake with a distillate', says Marc Nydegger, sake expert and founder of shizuku GmbH proudly.
Enjoy Mame San ice cool, with its full aroma and a taste that you don't know yet, but which still comes across as familiar.
Kanpai! Cheers!
Mame San 'Straight'
Enjoy our Sake Flavoured Vodka puristically and with all its unique facets...
The roasted sword bean is the nasal rider. With its cocoa and coffee note, it provides the Mame San with the gustatory depth.
The azuki bean provides the sweet, fresh and light marzipan note in Mame San.
The soya bean brings its round umami aroma with it, ideally binds the alcohol and ensures a pleasant mouthfeel in Mame San.
And the addition of sake - the Inatahime Ryokan - gives Mame San an additional warm umami note.
Mame San- Tasty, sweet, earthy and fresh.
Kanpai! Cheers!
