Method
Prepare Cup
Select cup
Choose a clean large fountain cup (about 20 fl oz capacity).
Fill the cup with 1 cup of ice cubes, leaving enough headspace for the beverage (roughly 1 inch from the rim).
Dispense Beverage
Select the beverage from the fountain or dispenser: Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Root Beer, Mountain Dew, Diet Mountain Dew, 7-Up, Dr. Pepper, Diet Dr. Pepper, Strawberry Lemonade, or Tropicana Light Lemonade.
Hold the cup at a slight angle beneath the dispenser nozzle and press the lever or button. Pour until the liquid level reaches approximately 1 inch below the rim (about 20 fl oz total including ice displacement). For carbonated beverages, pour gently to minimize excessive foaming; for lemonades, pour at a steady rate.
If foam builds up, pause briefly and allow it to settle before topping off to reach the target fill level.
