I like to pick up these sweet carbonated drinks at coventions or my local Asian grocery store. Ramunes come with a clear marble in them and are confusing to open. So I wrote this how-to to help you guys!

You Will Need (1 thing)

  • A Ramune Bottle

Steps (8 steps, 1 minutes)

  1. 1

    Peel the wraper off of the cap. There's a little green thing sitting on top. Take it off the top of the bottle and you can see the marble sitting inside.

  2. 2

    The green thing is the key. DO NOT I repeat, DO NOT throw it away! The green key splots into two parts, a ring and the opener. Punch out the opener. You can throw away the ring if you want.

  3. 3

    Now position the opener, narrow end down, onto the marble.

  4. 4

    Push down on the top of the opener with the heel of your hand. I'm weak, so I have to put all my weight into it. If you're really weak, get a man to help you out.

  5. 5

    Then, the marble should fall into the bottle. Don't worry you won't swallow it.

  6. 6

    You might have some little marks on your hand from the opener :)

  7. 7

    That thing with all the fizzies on it is the marble. When you're done, you can try to crack off the blue thing and get the marble out. Some people collect them. Or you can always unleash your destructive side and smash it with a hammer or on a hard-headed co-worker. :)

    Enjoy! (Haha, that's me I look like a boy in that picture!)
