Portland Syrups True Cola is a handcrafted, all-natural 12 oz cola syrup made from real kola nut and whole spices to mix into sparkling water or cocktails.
Made in small batches in Oregon, this artisanal syrup is designed as a concentrated mixer: use it to build lower-sugar sodas, add depth to cocktails, or flavor desserts and mocktails. Each 12 oz bottle yields roughly 12–24 servings depending on how bold you like your cola, and it avoids artificial sweeteners and high-fructose corn syrup in favor of natural ingredients and less added sugar.
How do I make a homemade cola drink with Portland Syrups True Cola?
Create a refreshing cola-style beverage in seconds by combining the syrup with chilled sparkling water and a squeeze of lime. Adjust the syrup ratio to taste — stronger for a classic cola intensity, lighter for a subtle flavored soda.
- Typical mix: 1–2 tablespoons syrup per 8 fl oz sparkling water.
- For a bolder serve, increase syrup to 3 tablespoons per 8 fl oz.
- Garnish with lime, lemon peel, or fresh mint for brightness.
- Mix in a shaker with ice for a frothier, restaurant-style finish.
Can I use True Cola in cocktails and what pairs best?
Yes—True Cola adds cola character with real kola nut and warm spices that complement dark spirits and aged liquors. It balances sweetness with spice, creating familiar cola cocktails with cleaner ingredients.
- Classic pairings: rum, bourbon, brandy, and aged tequila.
- Try 1.5 oz spirit to 2 oz syrup and top with sparkling water or soda.
- Works well with citrus twists, angostura bitters, or a cinnamon garnish.
- Also useful in zero-proof cocktails and mocktails for layered flavor.
What about nutrition and sweetness levels compared to canned sodas?
Portland Syrups True Cola is formulated to deliver cola flavor with roughly 40% less sugar than many conventional soda mixers. Because it is a concentrated syrup, you control the final sweetness by varying the amount mixed into beverages.
- Approximately 12–24 servings per 12 oz bottle depending on dilution.
- No high-fructose corn syrup and no artificial sweeteners.
- Sweetness adjustable by the proportion of syrup to water or spirit.
- Best stored refrigerated after opening for freshness.
How should I store and use the syrup to get the most out of it?
Keep the bottle sealed and refrigerate after opening to preserve flavor and aroma. Use within the recommended timeframe on the label for peak taste; because it’s hand-brewed in small batches, the spice profile is lively and best enjoyed fresh.
- Store unopened in a cool, dark place away from heat.
- Refrigerate after opening and consume within the period indicated.
- Shake or stir before measuring — natural settling may occur.
- Ideal for soda taps, cocktail kits, and home soda setups.
