A friend and I wanted fizzy drinks......but my parents never bought them and we had no money to buy them. And we didn't have a Soda Stream -- so we were stuffed, right?
Resourceful young chaps that we were, we had a think and came up with the next best thing...that's right, washing-up liquid!
So: orange squash plus a healthy squirt of Fairy (the original green stuff) plus water. Lovely and...well OK not so much fizzy as foamy but what the hey? Down the hatch...
...and quickly back up the hatch into the sink, on the kitchen floor and so on.
Nothing daunted, we tried freezing what was left to make er...well I don't really recall what the idea there was. Ice lollies that taste of detergent and make you vomit? Hmm.

No...but that might've been our next experiment had my parents not discovered what we'd done and (after laughing heartily at us) explained why ingesting cleaning products is generally a bad idea.

Do they still make Soda Streams?I remember it was the height of 70s sophistication, along with Blue Nun and Black Tower. And Watneys Red Barrel.

Oh yes!goo.gl/hi33S
My gran had one, only it was a cheap no-name version and the mixes were, frankly, bloody horrible. I still drank them because hey, it was fizzy! And therefore better by definition than the non-fizzy alternative.
