I was wondering if the mixing of egg nog and Sprite (or 7-up or any other lemon-lime soda) is just a Mormon tradition or if it’s more widespread. I didn’t know until I was much older that mixing egg nog with alcohol was actually the nomal thing to do.

In any case, whatever your proclivities, it’s pretty good if you’d like to try it!

I have a 3 gallon plastic container that I bought at Walmart. I use it for my iced tea which we drink a lot of in the summer. I try to clean it thoroughly between uses, but there is a mold that gets into the handle that I cannot reach. I usually just throw them away after this happens, but it is getting expensive. Is there anything that will kill this stuff? It has to be something liquid, I would assume, since there is no other way to reach this area. Thank you so much in advance. Any suggestions are appreciated:)

Outdoor, coin operated soda vending machines keep your drinks frosty cold all summer long but what happens in the winter? Why doesn’t the soda freeze?
I was working outside at a marina trying to save a 38′ yacht that was sinking due to a frozen muffler when this question occured to me. The wind chill factor was well below zero but the cokes were a steamy 40 degrees. A reverse cycle compressor was my first guess but that would have only raised the temp 10 or 15 degrees above ambient according to a hvac guy that I talked to. The sodas would have still frozen.
