Sodastream
I just bought a carbonated water machine. I bought it because I like carbonated water more than flat water. And because Mark has one, and I want to be more like Mark. I showed it to C, and her first question was “Can you carbonate urine?” but I explained that the instructions recommend that you only carbonate water. We agreed that the best option would be to create a cocktail of urine and carbonated water. So we spent a little while trying to come up with good names for pee-based aperitifs. Names included:
Pizz
Urine God’s Hands
The Flushing Meadows
The problem with having a carbonated water machine is that now I just want to carbonate everything. I want to make my entire salmon and asparagus dinner bubbly. Sam was just telling me about a drink he invented that consists of a 4loko, a Five Hour Energy, and an alka seltzer. We named it the 4lokomotive (or “Crazy Train” if you’re hustling it on the street.) That last time Sam and I worked on an elixer together, we invested the Mimosa 20/20, which was Orange Jubilee flavored MD 20/20 mixed with Miller High Life, the Champaign of Beers.
I really want to add carbonation to all of these things.
But back to the Sodastream. How does it work? Like this: You screw a giant tire inflator into a plastic tower. Then you stick a bottle of water under it and press a big button until the machine farts. Then you have water with bubbles.
Urine sold separately.
we have a sodastream, too.
the person who recommended/gave it to us(wedding registry) was of spanish descent and it is called “soda club” in europe. the spanish way to pronounce “soda club” is “soda kloob” so we call it that.
i want to carbonate bourbon and call it “awzmbeer”
from now on I will be referring to club soda as soda club. this is truly a more joyful/exclusive/european-sounding beverage now.
did you join the soda club? yea? cool, me too.
