Yuzu Chuhai

club soda (soda water)

shochu (brand or type doesn’t really matter)

simple syrup

yuzu extract

Ice cubes

Korean Citron Tea (Yuja Cha) (optional)

Lime/lemon slices for garnish (optional)

(1/4 cup) water

(1/2 cup) sugar

Combine club soda, shochu, simple syrup, and yuzu extract in a glass and mix well.

Add ice cube and Korean Citron Tea (optional) and mix well.

Garnish with lime or lemon, and serve immediately.

For Simple Syrup, bring the water to a boil in a small saucepan. Dissolve the sugar into the boiling water, stirring constantly. Once the sugar is dissolved completely, remove from heat and let cool completely and thicken.

wow! now I'm thirsty! I usually have a hot Yuja cha (Koean citron tea) or use it as dressing for my salad sometimes..., but cold drink with it.. sounds interesting! Your Yuzu Chuhai sounds so great for this summer! Thank you for sharing!

What a lovely drink!  And the photography is stunning!

What a great cocktail recipe from Nami ! Glad you featured her, Raymund. She's one of my favorite foodies and her recipes are so easy to follow. Happy Mon. &amp; CHEERS ! Thanks again, Nami &amp; let's toast to the rest of the summer :-)

Wow Nami  great to see you here too.. you're everywhere girl... you are a rock star in the blogoshphere.

and raymund it was great to have invited Nami over.  .. now let me fix my thirst before I die of dehydration...  excuse my drama haha!

malou

Thank you Raymund for having me today and the kind words you mentioned (household brand?! lol! We just share same circle of friends. :-)).  I admire your dedication to post recipes frequently for readers and all of your dishes are outstanding.  Your knowledge and ability to cook many dishes from different cuisines is amazing!  Thanks a lot Raymund!

Nami, it's one of the best cocktail ideas I have ever seen! It's such a big surprise to see shochu on someone else's blog (actually on two blogs!). Thank you so much for the kind mention and for the link. I remember very well you are also a big fan of shochu. It's such a magical, sophisticated and elegant drink... I usually just have it with sparkling water and a slice of lime, but since I love the taste of yuzu juice, I am thrilled to learn a new way to enjoy shochu. I am making your cocktail next Friday (or before!) and drinking to your health. Thank you for the brilliant idea!

Lovely! Thanks for sharing, Nami. And to bring me to this blog!

What a perfect match for a cocktail! I normally drink Korean Citron tea hot, but this sounds like a perfect marriage with shochu.=) Thanks for another great recipe, Nami.

I didn't know Nami had been blogging for just over a year.  She's so successful I thought she'd been around for a lot longer.  What a beautiful and refreshing looking drink.  I love the blue background  xx

Nami, this looks like the perfect summer refresher and ideal as a celebratory drink.  I think I would love trying this the next time we venture out for Japanese ;-).  I hope you have a fabulous holiday with your family Nami ~ thank you for sharing this delightful looking beverage.

Stunning!!!
It is so nice to see Nami here,
Nami this looks such a fantastic drink after long crazy day running behind kids n activities..LOL You know what I am talking right!!
Raymund what a lovely guest post indeed!!

Hi Nami! You know I love a good cocktail and this looks awesome.

Thank you Raymund for having Nami as your guest and you are right, to most bloggers and readers, Nami doesn't need an introduction because she and her blog is just very popular. Great looking drink, Nami!  :)

Great cocktail!  I've never heard of shochu - I'll have to check it out.  Really nice job with the photography.

Hi Raymund and Nami! I've been following Nami for some time now and absolutely love her stories, food and photography! Actually both your blogs are very informative when it comes to the dishes' history and I like that. :-) Nami, beautiful pics as usual. Yummy!

Very excited, Nami, and a little 'buzzed'.

I went out shopping this morning and bought a piece of pork belly for the recipe you posted earlier and when I got home, I made this.

Thanks for the inspiration. :) It was great.

I've never tried yuzu before, but would love to!  Never had anything like this before.

WOW that would be such an amazingly refreshing drink (your photos are also gorgeous !)
