Was Bozi soda invented in Japan or Scotland?

Pocket soda originated in Britain, was invented in 1872, and was introduced to Japan in 1884. It is a carbonated drink with lime and lemon flavor, and its Japanese name "ラムネ" comes from the English word "lemonade". Because of the addition of carbon dioxide, it tastes cool and refreshing, and it sells well in hot weather, and it has also become one of the "totems" representing summer. During World War II, the cool marble soda was very popular with the Japanese navy, and even there were equipment for producing marble soda on warships. This drink was subsequently introduced to Taiwan Province and Hongkong.

in the early 19th century, soda was popular in Britain. The earliest carbonated soft drinks were sold now, because it was easy to lose steam after being left for a long time. Later, people used glass bottles to fill carbonated drinks and sealed them with cork. However, due to the high cost of cork sealing, soda manufacturers at that time were all worried about the container problem, and people thought of various alternative methods to seal carbonated drinks-rubber, aluminum foil, combination of metal and magnet ... Until 1872, Hiram Codd, an Englishman, invented a Codd Bottle filled with machines and sealed with glass beads. In the operation of this design, the flavoring agent is first injected into the bottle, then carbonated water is injected in one breath when the bottle mouth is up, and the bottle is inverted at the moment when the liquid is full, so that the glass beads will fall to the bottle mouth. Because the pressure inside the bottle is relatively high, the glass beads can seal the bottle mouth under the action of gas pressure.

Because of the simple and economical production method of Cod bottles, soda manufacturers have used Cod bottles to fill carbonated soda, so that Bozi soda is very popular. However, the design of Cod bottle has also brought many problems. If you shake the bottle before opening it, it will have the effect of champagne. Recycled glass bottles will be difficult to clean because of marbles; When manufacturers recycle bottles, they often encounter the situation that marbles are taken away. Children like to take marbles out of Bobo soda to play. Glass marbles are a very common collection among children, but the Bobo soda without marbles will make shopkeepers very troubled, and marbles with a diameter of only about 1.5 cm may be eaten by young children by mistake. Shops selling sparkling water usually have special bottle openers to press glass beads into bottles. In the past, bottle openers were mostly made of iron, and they were hung at the door of the store with ropes for immediate purchase and drinking. Most empty bottles were left in the store for recycling. Later, each bottle was attached with a plastic bottle opener, and the bottle mouth was wrapped with shrink film, which on the one hand prevented the marbles from being polluted, and on the other hand allowed customers to take them home. In fact, the plastic ring on the bottle mouth of Bozi soda can be turned down, but the thread is contrary to the general usage habit, and it can only be twisted clockwise to avoid the drinker accidentally decomposing it.

In p>1884, Bozi soda was introduced to Japan by Alexander Cameron Sim, a Scottish immigrant. At that time, all glass manufacturers in Japan were shocked by this strange bottle.

Deyong Yuji, the owner of Osaka Deyong Glass Factory, was deeply attracted by this kind of bottle, and decided to make Cod bottles locally. He buried himself in research the following year, and finally achieved the goal of mass production five years later.

with the advent of many new drinks, marble soda gradually declined, until the nostalgic trend at the end of the 2th century, which made it appear on the market again. The bottle body is made of PET, which is unbreakable and light.

In addition, many new flavors have been added. Besides the original lime and lemon flavors, there are also cantaloupe, strawberry, orange, litchi, peach and "Blue Hawaii" on the market.
