Hana Hana Highball
The Highball is the classic way to enjoy shochu in Japan. The soda water, lemon and ice, when stirred well, truly brings out Nankai Shochu's flavors. "Hana" means "flower" in Japanese so "Hana Hana" is a special toast on Amami Island. It means "a flower for you and a flower for this moment."
