Fix the Pumps
Fix the Pumps looks at the history of early soda fountains and expands on the techniques and recipes used by pharmacists and soda jerks to create these bubbling concoctions.
The book contains over 450 pre-prohibition soda recipes, many containing forgotten ingredients like Acid Phosphate, Lactart and aromatic elixir which were easily as creative and interesting as anything bartenders were making.
