KINTON RAMEN Returns Fan-Favourite Ramen, Launches First-Ever Cream Soda Lineup This Fall
A returning Golden Sesame Ramen is joined by an all-new counterpart, alongside five interactive drinks inspired by a century-old Japanese café tradition
As part of its Fall Limited Time Offers, KINTON RAMEN is bringing back one of its most requested ramen bowls.
Golden Sesame Ramen returns as a customer favourite and a Bowl of Happiness in its own right, featuring thick noodles in a rich pork broth blended with creamy white sesame paste and topped with seasoned ground pork, spinach, bean sprouts and a seasoned egg. In addition, KINTON RAMEN is also launching a Black Sesame Ramen that takes sesame in a deeper, toastier direction, with wood ear mushrooms and black sesame seeds adding flavour and texture.
But the biggest departure from KINTON RAMEN’s familiar fall offerings comes beyond the bowl, introducing its first-ever Cream Soda lineup, inspired by a Japanese café tradition more than a century old.
Cream Soda has a history in Japan dating back to the early 1900s, when soda water and ice cream began appearing together at Tokyo soda fountains. The colourful drink would go on to become a familiar part of Japanese café culture, known for bringing together fizzy soda and a creamy finish.
“Cream Soda has been enjoyed in Japan for generations, and we saw an opportunity to take that tradition somewhere new,” says Trista Jorgensen, Marketing Director at KINTON RAMEN, part of the Foodtastic family of brands. “We wanted to keep the colourful, playful spirit that makes Cream Soda so recognizable while putting our own spin on the flavours and the experience.”
KINTON RAMEN’s take swaps the traditional scoop of ice cream for creamy oat milk and introduces flavours including yuzu, lychee, mandarin, peach and coconut. Each drink arrives with its components separate, allowing guests to mix everything together themselves at the table.
Available for a limited time starting September 28 at participating locations across Canada, the lineup includes:
- Yuzu Coconut Dirty Coke – Coca-Cola combined with yuzu, coconut and oat milk.
- Lychee Cream Tea – Lychee iced tea paired with oat milk for a fruity, creamy finish.
- Mandarin Orange Cream Soda – Fanta Orange mixed with mandarin, vanilla and oat milk.
- Peach Yuzu Cream Soda – Sprite paired with peach, yuzu and oat milk for a sweet and citrusy combination.
- Yuzu Coconut Marble Ramune – Original Ramune combined with yuzu and coconut and served in the Japanese soda’s distinctive marble-sealed bottle.
“There’s an experience that comes with these drinks beyond just the flavours,” says Ms. Jorgensen. “They arrive colourful and layered, and then you get to mix everything together yourself. It’s something completely new for KINTON and a fun way for our guests to experience a Japanese favourite in a different way.”
Together, the return of Golden Sesame Ramen, the debut of Black Sesame Ramen, and KINTON RAMEN’s first-ever Cream Soda lineup make up the brand’s limited-time fall offerings, bringing a mix of new flavours, returning favourites and Japanese-inspired traditions to locations across Canada this season.
