Introducing Hopt Soda, a Refreshing Alternative Soft Drink

It's pretty well established that some things we humans consume are just plain bad for us or the environment. Everyone's either eating raw, gluten-free, or carbon-neutral food these days so it's about time we start drinking in the same vein.

In light of such a noble movement, we've been introduced to Hopt, a new range of 'clean' soda drinks. Hopt Sodas are made with natural flavours and less than half of the sugar content of regular soft drinks. Those same flavours also share the alternative vibes with such combinations as Salted Lychee, Pear and Basil, Watermelon and Mint, and Elderberry and Herb.

Given that Hopt is an ancient skaldic word meaning 'connected', the Sodas are designed to be enjoyed with just that in mind: connecting. So it's only natural that Hopt Sodas will be at some of Auckland's finest events and establishments that yours truly will be covering over coming months. Keep an ear to the ground and a taste bud or two ready for your new way to consume a social beverage.

Hopt ambassador Ryan Christensen will be giving out samples of this crisp new soda and spreading the word from his specially equipped van. Concrete Playground will inform you on where he will be over the coming weeks. You can also be following Ryan's movements on Twitter or Instagram via @hoptsoda.
