What You Did

You made your own soda pop by combining ingredients that are unpalatable on their own.

Intended Results

You made a tasty, fizzy drink.

Unintended Results

When I tried this experiment, my glass overflowed with bubbles! If you didn't add sugar or a sugar substitute, your drink tasted very bitter or sour. You didn't get any bubbles if you didn't use baking soda
