Lone remote colleague here. For me it's all about phone calls. When you're in the office together you have random non work related chats all day, don't feel bad doing it on the phone! Whether its a work geared call or youre just thinking about them and ask if they have some time to chat- can always fit in a little time to get to know them
Also, if they post things in slack, try to interact with them over it. Shares an article? "Thats cool, I like xyz."
