In the '40s and '50s, Soda Fountains were social gathering
places -- especially for teens. Nearly every drug store worth
its salt, and many burger joints, had one. Among the most
popular libations were flavored colas (usually made with
Coca-Cola), and "phosphates". Milk Shakes and other Items
of Refreshement.
Hope you find something to Tickle Your Fancy at the Soda
Fountian.

Flavored
Colas
The most popular flavored colas were cherry, vanilla, lemon
and chocolate. To a tall glass, add one of the
following to taste:
Lemon Cola: Squeeze the
juice of one fresh lemon wedge into glass, then drop in the lemon
wedge. Cherry
Cola: Cherry flavored fountain syrup or snow-cone syrup (or
substitute the syrup from jar of maraschino cherries) Chocolate Cola: Hershey's Chocolate Syrup Vanilla Cola: Vanilla flavored
fountain syrup or snow-cone syrup (or substitute vanilla extract and sugar
syrup)
Fill the glass about 3/4 full with chilled cola. Briskly
stir-in flavoring with a spoon. Add ice.

Phosphates
Phosphates were carbonated beverages made-from-scratch by
the "soda jerk" using carbonated soda water, flavored syrups and phosphoric
acid, an ingredient still used today in many brands of soda-pop including Coke.
Popular flavors included cherry, lime (usually called a green river), chocolate
and vanilla. The variations were limited only by creativity, creating such
hybrids as the cherry-lime rickey. The trick here is to find the phosphoric
acid. Find a pharmacist over 50, and ask if they carry it or know where you
might find some. Soda jerks kept it in a shaker bottle (like hot sauce or
worchestershire) and added just a few drops to each phosphate.
To a tall glass, add one of the following to
taste:
Cherry Phosphate: Cherry
flavored fountain syrup or snow-cone syrup (or substitute the syrup from jar of
maraschino cherries) Lime Phosphate (Green River): Lime flavored fountain
syrup or snow-cone syrup Chocolate Phosphate: Hershey's Chocolate
Syrup Vanilla
Phosphate (Cream Soda): Vanilla flavored fountain syrup or snow-cone
syrup (or substitute vanilla extract and sugar syrup) Cherry Lime Phosphate (Rickey): Equal
parts cherry and lime flavored fountain syrups or snow-cone syrups
Fill glass about 3/4 full with chilled club soda (no salt
added). Shake in a few drops of phosphoric acid. Briskly stir-in flavoring with
a spoon. Add ice.
