Sodas are the new black. Not only are local lovers of libation playing with sodas in cocktails and as solo sippers but many are producing their own, like the poppin’ piquant sodas of Portland Soda Works. Soda is so hot right now. Created in small-batches with all natural ingredients, PSW makes a number of sodas, including the Hoprose, a carefully brewed blend of four different hop varieties with the goal to locate the spice and citrus of the individual plants. Rose hip and other natural flavors are added to enhance sweetness and balance. PSW recommends mixing it up with Aviation gin or aquavit for a voguish cocktail rendition. Find
