How to make lollies from fizzy drinks

Here are some tips to ensure success when making a pop with your favorite fizzy drink.

Let the drink go flat before adding it to The Quick Pop™ Maker. This will eliminate pockets of air (bubbles) from your pops, resulting in a smoother texture and better taste. If the drink is not flat, the moulds may overflow past the fill line and stop the lollies from coming out of the moulds.
