Cool fact

Did you know that ice cream soda was an accidental discovery? It is believed that in 1874 Robert Green, a soda seller in Philadelphia, ran out of cream, the key ingredient for his famous sodas comprising sweet cream, syrup and carbonated water. He borrowed some vanilla ice cream from his neighbours as a replacement and accidentally gave birth to this now globally popular cooler.
