Mixer at a mixer (4)

I believe the answer is:

soda

(Other definitions for soda that I've seen before include "Variety of pop" , "Sodium carbonate" , "for use with whisky?" , "Alkaline substance used in cleaning, drinks etc" , "Accompaniment to whisky" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
