This video documents my attempt to make a delicious homemade orange soda using only fresh squeezed juice, carbon dioxide, and a new type of carbonator. You can find the carbonator here: fruitmentor.com/fizz
Ever since I was 8 years old I have fantasized about drinking an orange soda like Orange Crush from the early 20th century when it came in brown bottles and actually contained oranges. I have a vivid memory of asking my grandfather about a case of empty brown bottles that I discovered in his workshop. At that time orange soft drinks were no longer made of oranges and my grandfather told me how they used to be. Since then many new carbonated orange drinks have been introduced that do contain citrus juices, but I have not yet had any that I thought were very good. The addition of the orange juice in these modern fizzy drinks seems to be more of a marketing gimmick than a recreation of the drink that I had imagined.
I have learned about so many delicious citrus fruits and for the past couple of years I have been experimenting with the carbonation of some delicious citrus fruit juices. I have carbonated orange juice, blood orange juice, mandarin juice, and many other citrus juices. Carbonating citrus juice presents some challenges, but in this video I summarize how to do it without making a mess. Now that I have succeeded in making delicious carbonated pure citrus juices, I suspect that they are much better than even the Orange Crush in a brown bottle that I was never able to try.
My daughter and I have had so much fun experimenting with carbonating various fruit juices that we decided to make a new KZbin channel where we would post some of our experiments carbonating various fruit juices, fruits, and other things.
