π₯€ What is your favorite soda mix?
-
Matpat spent a month without sugar and decided to go all out after the cleanse.
-
Every single time i went to my aunt as a kid she would give me this mysterious drink she called 'a spacey' and it was so good so i asked my mom to buy some, but it wasn't anywhere in the supermarkets. I just last year found out it was just cola and fanta mixed together.
-
Santi being a bartender is that kind of information you learn and it's like "woah, really?" and then you go "wait, no, actually. Yeah, I'm surprised I didn't guess that already."
-
For a chuggable, low carbonation sugar rush, we had something that we called Hulk juice, 1 part blue powerade 1 part Hi-C orange 3 parts sprite .5 part lemonade It was very green and the sugar rush + electrolytes was a decent replacement for caffeine
-
My personal favourite has to be the water-ice combo, ABSOLUTELY SLAPS everytime!
-
If you get a swamp water that looks mostly green, it's called the Yoda Soda.
-
This is so interesting because as an Australian I've never had any of this "swamp water" because our fast food restaurants don't really have those soda fountains (at least not the self serve kind). Kinda interested to try it out tho and mix up my own stuff
-
I would actually like to see this one revisited, with STRAWS thrown into the equation. When you drink from a cup, you're drinking from the top of the mix. But when you drink from a straw, you're drinking from the bottom. How would that affect the flavor profile?
-
I always saw two constants when it came to soda mixing: Dr. Pepper was the "universal receiver", where you could mix just about anything into it for a different though Dr. Pepper forward flavor, and Sprite was the "universal donor", where it could re-carbonate an almost flat soda without affecting the flavor too much.
-
Worked at a restaurant for about 5 years, where I found the secret flavor combination to get Baja blast. It was so spot on, some of my regulars started requesting it (Baja blast with Mexican food is a match made in heaven) Half sprite Quarter lemonade Quarter blue Powerade Squeeze quarter lime and garnish with lime wedgeπ€
-
In Germany they market mixed soda drinks, such as Mezzo Mix (cola and orange soda), and every German kid grows up knowing what a Spezi is (equal parts cola, orange soda and Sprite/what we call lemonade)
-
Itβs really smart how mat had Santi in these final episodes SO much more to make the host change Even smoother than it already is. Bravo Theorist
-
The complexity of the soda fountain mix options are definitely underrated and underexplored. It stands as a testament to human creativity and ingenuity.
-
βMay your drinks be sweet, and your refills be freeβ Iβll toast to that one, mate. π₯€π₯€
-
21:38 Sam, buddy. I get your point, but I would absolutely ask Da Vinci about fractions of blue in The Last Supper. Heβd probably know the mass of the pigments, too.
-
I once worked at my local Arbyβs and for lunch I would take a cup and fill it with the following; Sprite, Lemonade, Powerade, and finally, Unsweetened Tea. I never really figured out how much of each I just judged the amounts on my own. And in rare occasions if I felt like it I added a tiny part of water if I wanted more drink but felt I already had enough of the sugars and carbonation.
-
I tried making swamp water with a freestyle machine and it somehow looped around to being not only UNSWEET, but actively BITTER!
-
I love the fact that these guys are so Scientifically passionate about explaining soda mix
-
My favorite was always going down the line, but of different Sprite flavors. It tastes like a handful of Wildberry Skittles eaten all at once. That method made me fall in love with mixing sodas!
