Soda Glasses

When pouring soft drinks, the soda glass can be a great help. The glass has a narrow bottom that tapers out into a wider rim. This way, when you pour the soda, it will roll gently down the side of the glass, instead of falling all the way to the bottom, which can cause a build-up of fizz.

To properly pour soda, tilt the glass so that it is at a 60 degree angle relative to the table. Pour slowly so that the soft drink touches the side of the glass instead of hitting the bottom. This will prevent the liquid from building up momentum and speed, which will cause fizzing once it hits a surface. As the glass fills, you will need to slowly bring it back to an upright position to prevent the soda from spilling. Add the ice at the end one-by-one, and you have a perfect glass of soda that still has most of its carbonation.
