I got to try out the new Coca Cola fountains on Thursday. We went to the Pei Wei in Newport Beach where they had two installations.
I’d pretty much given up soda a few months ago, but I really enjoyed trying out the machine. That seemed to be half the fun of the experience. The other half was trying out new Coke flavors like Coke Orange and Coke Raspberry. I know it’s all fake chemicals, but it was still amazing to try out. And the fact that there was no cross-contamination of beverages all coming out of the same nozzle.
There were two menu levels. The top menu level – shown in the photo – has the main drink categories. Select one and you are presented with a “refinement” menu where you can more specifically pick, for instance, what flavor of Dasani flavored water you would like.
Overall, pretty cool. It’s like being fat in the not-too-distant future!
