to precool them so the CO2 is absorbed better.

If you buy 2 liter bottles then the carbonation happened under controlled conditions and locked in by the pressure held in by the bottle.

It depends on the type of soda fountain you have. I worked at a place as a teen where we had to fill the bin with ice

Interesting, it says that here on this website as well. Still trying to

My wife is a connoisseur of polar pops and she agrees with the worker.

The ice helps cool the syrup and water which does help it retain the carbonation.

Always go to QT…. I think the soda lines are chilled, a cooled beverage holdsCO2

Not when Circle K has a membership now. $5.99/mo for one polar pop a day up to 64 oz.

I was tempted by that but…. It’s not worth it. Quality of Circle Ks just don’t

Yeah we only stop at the new circle K’s the old ones are terrible

That’s what my wife bought us both, but I still go to QT and she gets ticked

I wonder if having sticky soda residue on the counters also helps
