  Wrong.
  It’s called swamp water, and as kids we loved it. Mixem all up!

    That is a lot better than what we called them: a suicide.

    Swamp water is the name of a regional beverage where I am.

    I was a bit of an amateur mixologist as a child, and the top machine was my pallet.

    But what was more, the corner store gas station that was down the street from my childhood home had multiple machines, each with 4 or 5 different drink options.

    Years later, a friend of mine worked there as a summer job and told the friend group to avoid the fountain drinks so we did, and probably all still do.

      Fountain drink dispensers just don’t get cleaned. I worked at a fast food restaurant for 3 years; I think I saw someone go after the ice maker once. The nozzles get soaked overnight, but the inside might as well as been a black box.
