Sober-Tober
Steering clear of alcohol long term or just for October? You’re not alone. Several Oxbow Public Market purveyors have inclusive beverage options to pair with your favorite Oxbow dish.
- Fieldwork has a growing list of non-alcoholic beers, tonics, waters and house made sodas options made with the same attention to detail as their beers. Canned in 4-packs, the selections are available for shipping nationwide.
- C CASA drink menu includes a zero proof margarita, mojito, and prickly pear spritzer made with a much love and attention as their higher proof versions.
- Ritual Coffee drinks menu is worth an exploration. Their Foggy Latte, a beguiling combination of Earl Grey Tea, Orange Blossom Water, and Espresso has returned. Served Hot or Iced.
- Moro’s sweet mint tea is more than the sum of its parts. A perfectly refreshing pairing with their Moroccan-inspired street food.
