Comments
Alcoholic orange soda - pretty straight forward
Henry's Hard Soda Orange looked just like an orange soda when I poured it into a small glass. I took a sniff and it smelled of orange soda. I took a taste...and that is where it struggles a bit. Yes, there is the orange syrup you expect from the soda, but the alcohol doesn't just disappear. The alcohol seems to tame the carbonation which hits my tongue and leave a slight boozy aftertaste.
Highly recommend that you don't drink out of the bottle. Use the smell to help overcome the deficiencies with the taste. Also, drinking ice cold is essential. Once this gets warm, the taste really takes a dive.
