Soda Syphon/Seltzer Bottle – detail, originally uploaded by GranniesKitchen.

This is a soda syphon (also called a seltzer bottle) made in Czechoslovakia in the 50s. You could use this for making any number of soda drink, not just soda water. A carbon dioxide cannister is used to inject the ‘fizz’ into the liquid in the bottle, plain water for soda, water with quinine to make tonic water, or water with different flavoured syrups to make soft drinks, or soda pop. There is a great video on how to do this here.
