Method
Serve a regular fountain or bottled soft drink
Chilled bottled/canned serving
If using a chilled 12 fl oz can or bottle of your chosen beverage (Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Root Beer, Mountain Dew, Diet Mountain Dew, 7-Up, Dr. Pepper, Diet Dr. Pepper, Strawberry Lemonade, or Tropicana Light Lemonade), simply remove cap, place on a napkin or coaster, and serve cold. Optionally add a lemon wedge to lemonade or 7-Up.
Fountain/dispensed serving (cup with ice)
Fill a 16 oz serving cup about two-thirds full with ice (about 1 cup). Dispense approximately 12 fl oz of the selected soda or lemonade into the cup over the ice. Leave a small headspace to avoid overflow. For Strawberry Lemonade or Tropicana Light Lemonade, garnish with a lemon wedge if desired.
Notes on selection
This menu item represents one regular-sized soft drink. Choose one flavor from the list. Nutritional content and sweetness depend on the chosen beverage (regular vs diet/light). If substituting between bottles and fountain, volume should be approximately 12 fl oz per serving.
