Soju is a spirit that has garnered popularity and keeps gaining renown as time passes. This popularity can be directly attributed to the various soju mixes you can make and enjoy. This liquor mixes well with other drinks because of its neutral taste and colour, making for a solid base liquor for various cocktails.

 

Who doesn’t love a good soju mixer or mixers in general? Cocktails do an excellent job of masking the alcohol and putting additional flavour profiles within the drink; that’s why they are popular. Korea’s average shots per week statistic of 13.7 can be directly attributed to soju, and for a good reason.

7 Mind-blowing Soju Mixes

 

Almost all soju companies have flavoured versions of the regular liquor, but these flavoured varieties aren’t enough for some. What can help get the party popping is some good old soju mixers that add layers of flavour to the mix.

 

That said, here are some of the best soju mixes that make drinking soju a wonderful treat:

 

1.     Soju Bomb

Perhaps the most popular cocktail involving soju, the soju bomb is a mixture of beer and the spirit in question. The best thing about this cocktail is you get the best of both worlds in one shot since the buzz from both liquors will hit you simultaneously.

 

You can also follow different ratios to customise the buzz you will get from each shot, with the best balance being 30/70 in favour of beer. To get the maximum buzz, however, the recommended ratio is 50/50, a proper mixture of both worlds.

Oneshot Original Soju

 

How To Make This Mixer:

 

Best ratio - 30% soju, 70% beer

Maximum Buzz - 50% each

 

 

2.    Soju Latte

Are you a coffee lover who loves the occasional hard drinking? The soju latte hits the perfect spot for that, mixing the thick and rich body of coffee and the smooth and buzz-inducing soju; this mixer happens when you can’t decide whether to go for coffee or liquor.

 

You can make this cocktail using black coffee or add milk for an extra layer of thickness and flavour; the choice is up to you. Some recipes utilise flavoured soju as their base, like the strawberry soju espresso, making for a drink with even more layers.

3.    Korean Screwdriver

They say the best things come in small packages, which is the case with this soju mixer since it only requires you to have two crucial ingredients: soju and orange juice. This cocktail is the Koreans’ take on the famous cocktail Screwdriver, except they substituted vodka with soju.

 

This cocktail is an exciting mixture since it marries the texture of the orange juice and the buzz from soju, making for a perfect, rich, and sweet drink that you can enjoy with your friends or alone.

4.    Gummy Bear Soju

Gummy bears aren’t just relegated to being kid’s snacks since they can also be partnered with soju to create a delightfully sweet and somewhat jello-like alcoholic drink. For those familiar with jello shots, you are making a more affordable version of the drink with gummy bear soju.

 

Also known as Haribo-ju, since the most common brand of gummy bears used for this mixer is Haribo, this is an intriguing take on soju since we rarely see candies mixed with alcoholic drinks. If you’re feeling adventurous and want to try new mixers, the gummy bear soju is definitely at the top of the list.

 

Best Soju Brands For This Cocktail:

 

Oneshot Original Soju

Chuga Watermelon Soju

Oneshot Tropical Mango Soju

 

How To Make This Mixer:

 

1 packet of gummy grape bears mixed with 1 bottle of soju in a container. Allow the candies to dissolve so the soju can absorb their sweetness. Give it about 1 hour to 1 hour and a half, and it’ll be ready to serve.

 

 

5.    Cojinganmek

The word “Cojinganmek” combines Korean words that represent cola, soju, and beer. Similar to “Somaek”, which combines beer and soju, this version has a surprising twist: cola. If you liked the soju bomb, but feel like it’s lacking something, then the cojinganmek might hit the right spots for you.

 

This cocktail takes the best aspects of each ingredient involved and forms a delicious concoction with the sweetness of cola, the smooth body of soju, and the right amount of buzz from both liquors. If you like sweet and strong drinks, this combination is a must-try.

Jinro Chamisul Fresh Soju

 

How To Make This Mixer:

 

80% beer, 10% soju, and 10% cola.

 

 

6.    Yoghurt Soju

The yoghurt soju mixes one popular drink with another and creates a cocktail with a rich and thick body and a moderately strong buzz to go along with it. This soju mixer’s ingredients are Yakult and your favourite brand of plain soju.

 

This cocktail is famous because it gives hints of sweet and sour flavour notes on an otherwise neutral-tasting drink. Yakult's thick and creamy body also makes drinking this mixer a treat since it departs from the usual smooth body of soju.

Jinro Chamisul Fresh Soju

 

How To Make This Mixer:

 

50% Sprite, 25% soju, 25% Yakult.

 

 

7.    Melona-ju

Melona-ju, or soju mixed with Melona ice cream and Sprite, has taken Korea by storm because of its addictive flavour profiles and rich and creamy body. Countries, where this particular ice cream brand isn’t available can also enjoy this cocktail by using a substitute.

 

This cocktail gives you a sweet and thick body to go along with soju’s buzz, making for an exciting drinking experience. The combination of ice cream and Sprite kicks the sweetness up a notch and coats the base liquor with a creamy liquid, giving you extra texture when you drink.
