History of Cream Soda?
Back in the 1850's frozen cream was added to soda to cool the soda as ice was harvested from ponds and lakes in that time. Most ice then was contaminated with sewage, so they used the ice to freeze the cream :- hence the name ice cream and then added to the drink. 

Cream soda became a popular soft drink that has been enjoyed by people all over the world for many years. While there are many variations of cream soda, it is generally made with vanilla flavoring and sweeteners, and has a creamy texture that makes it a delicious and refreshing beverage.

Contrary to what some may believe, cream soda actually originated in the United States, and not Italy as some claim. The exact origins of cream soda are somewhat unclear, but it is generally believed to have been invented in the late 19th century in the United States.

One of the earliest known references to cream soda comes from a newspaper advertisement in 1852, which described a beverage called "cream soda water" that was sold at a local soda fountain. Over time, cream soda became a popular drink in the United States and later spread to other parts of the world.

Throughout the world many different countries have their own version of a cream soda. Japan for instance "cream soda" is a term used for an ice cream float made with melon flavoured soda topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. 

Finland, a brand called Sun'nCream soda have a variation called orange cream soda with a hint of an orange taste referred to as Italian cream soda which is usually made with a mixture of, Carbonated water, vanilla syrup and added half & half or cream. Ratios vary widely, but the taste is usually that of sweetened flavoured milk.
