Rocket Fizz's Americana Huckleberry

Bottoms Up

By Anna Faller | March 2, 2024

While you might know Rocket Fizz in Traverse City for its wall-to-wall shelves of snacks and sweets, it’s their effervescent soda stash that’ll have you feeling like, well, a kid in a candy store! Unleash your inner child with vintage-inspired picks like Honey Cream, Cherry Cola, or our favorite (and the staff’s!): Americana Huckleberry. Handcrafted and sweetened with pure cane sugar, this bright purple sip is as juicy as its namesake fruit (think: brambly berries backed by a touch of vanilla) with a creamy mouthfeel and a puckery finish. Pair one with a pastel handful of saltwater taffy and let the sugar coma commence! Grab a bottle or mix your own multipack at Rocket Fizz’s downtown Traverse City location (111-B E. Front Street).
