It is perhaps fitting that they were built in England, since carbonated beverages began with the great British chemist Joseph Priestley ??s attempts to duplicate the effervescent waters of European spas (among them the Prussian village of Nieder Selters, which would give the beverage its name). Priestley charged water with ??fixed air ? ??the carbon dioxide that, under pressure, gives soft drinks their sparkle ??and published his findings in 1772. By the early years of.
