ATLANTA—Coca-Cola Co. hopes a new high-tech soda fountain will add some life to listless soft-drink sales by letting restaurant-goers mix up 104 different drinks, creating inventions such as Caffeine-Free Diet Raspberry Coke.
Coke's new Freestyle machine is housed in a curved metal shell created by the designers of Ferrari race cars, and features a touch-screen menu. Inside, technology common in measuring tiny doses of chemotherapy drugs is used to release digitally-controlled amounts of concentrate flavor from dozens of plastic cartridges. (via)
Those things are awesome! Stacey and I debated on staying at firehouse subs all day to try all the different flavors. It makes the fountain drink xperience even better than it already is.

ReplyDeleteI almost used one of those things at Disneyland last week, but I got a beer instead.
