When the dog days of summer come howling in, drinkers can be grateful that one of the biggest cocktail trends in Portland continues to be boozy slushies. Now that Portland is home to even more outdoor dining spaces and patios, bars and restaurants have leaned heavily on fun, summery, al fresco treats, and this is a city that loves its liquor; thus, boozy slushies can be found at buzzy restaurants, dive bars, and cocktail lounges across the city. Below, find an array of piña coladas, daiquiris, and delicious frosé, as well as other, more unorthodox concoctions. We’ve saved the places that only offer slushies in margarita form for our margarita map, and for other, less boozy frosty treats there’s our ice cream guide.
Per usual, the points on this map are not ranked; rather, they're organized geographically.
