Lolo Sparkling Pomelo Sage Hops: Lolo is a Pacific Northwest brand that makes non-alcoholic, low-calorie drinks. I typically don't like hops-based drinks (and generally don't enjoy the taste of beer), but this sparkling pomelo sage drink went way beyond my expectations. I really enjoyed how vibrant the citrus flavor was. It's sweetened just enough but also quite acidic and well balanced. And it has an herbal aftertaste from the addition of sage. Highly recommended. Purchased at Anchored Ship Coffee Bar in Ballard. 4.5/5.0

Lorina Pomegranate Blueberry Sparkling Soda: Given its uniquely curved bottle, labelling with a black and white photograph of the Eiffel Tower, and stamp dating Lorina's establishment over 100 years ago, this bottle of fruit soda is clearly aspirational, appealing to consumers who wish they were drinking it at an outdoor cafe on the streets of Paris. It tastes very clearly of both pomegranate and blueberry, and its purple red color enhances the effect. Sweet and well carbonated. 3.5/5.0

Moshi Sparkling Lychee Oolong Tea: I've tried many beverages from Moshi, a brand specializing in sparkling beverages with Asian ingredients and flavors, and they've been consistently excellent. This sparkling oolong tea has a floral herbal flavor. It's on the sweeter side of the drinks I've tried from this brand, with 31g of sugar per bottle, but feels true to the fruit and is especially refreshing for hot days. 4.0/5.0

Moshi Sparkling Honey Oolong Tea: Even though this drink has one of the more ordinary flavors (from a brand that typically incorporates tropical Asian fruits), it is one of the purest and best versions of honey tea that I've had. The honey has a uniquely rich, floral flavor without being overpowering. It's hard to imagine anyone not thoroughly enjoying this beverage. 4.5/5.0

Moshi Sparkling Yuzu Drink: This was my first Moshi beverage and I love how bright and floral the yuzu flavor is. They're able to capture the sharp, fresh flavor of yuzu but it's still a sweet, refreshing drink (containing 32g of sugar). An excellent beverage from a super solid brand. 4.0/5.0
