“We’ve been producing these hard sodas during the summer for three years now with great results,” says Rob Horn, co-founder of Triceratops. He emphasizes the goal of creating beverages that are gluten-free and low-calorie, appealing to a younger generation of alcohol consumers. "We hope to expand our flavor offerings in the future and aim to produce hard soda year-round."
