Fountain drinks are beverages dispensed from a machine, typically found in restaurants, convenience stores, and fast-food outlets. These machines mix carbonated water with flavored syrups to create a variety of soft drinks. Customers can choose from multiple options, including popular brands like Coca-Cola and Pepsi, and often have the ability to customize their drink with different flavors. The process of making fountain drinks is efficient and cost-effective. The syrup is stored in large containers, and the machine combines it with carbonated water on demand. This allows for quick service and reduces waste compared to pre-packaged drinks.
