Blank Slate is a woman-owned neighborhood cocktail bar that opened in 2017 in Portland's Montavilla neighborhood, founded by longtime Portland bartender Kierre Van de Veere and Michael Irikawa. Set among lush plants, floral wallpaper, and a deep vinyl collection, it serves craft cocktails, beer, wine, and a seasonal small-plates menu. Its non-alcoholic program is genuine and built in-house: the menu's dedicated "Non-Alcoholic Cocktails" section runs about half a dozen drinks at $10, using house-made botanical syrups, house tea blends, coconut milk, vinegars, and rosewater rather than juice-and-soda shortcuts. Named zero-proof drinks include the Cat Nap N.A. (bitter botanical syrup, chamomile, sherry vinegar), Orange Dream Machine N.A. (orange, vanilla, rosewater, oat milk), Rose Darling N.A. (hibiscus, rose and green tea, lime, coconut milk), and Vacation (coconut milk, passion fruit, lemon, lime, orgeat). NA beer, hop water, kombucha, and CBD soda round out the list.
