From the folks that bring you some of the rose city’s choicest pizza comes HOTLIPS real fruit sodas, carrying the name of the 28-year-old Portland pizzeria over and into their eight-year-old beverage line. Using 100 percent natural, 100 percent local, small-batch fruit, eat bottle details the specific farm where the fruit hails from. In the case of the HOTLIPS Cranberry Soda, it was Stevens + Yellow River cranberries from Seaview Farm in Sixes, Ore. as well as juice from Northwest grown pears as the base concentration. Injected with a slight effervescence of carbonation, the all-natural, “lightly sparkling” beverage has zero sugar added so it’s pure red berry tang, weighed out with creamy, rich pear juice.
