Burple is a discontinued drink mix that was packaged in an expandable accordion-like plastic container. There were two sizes of Burple available, a lunchbox-size (8 oz, 240 mL) and a full-size (64 oz, 1890 mL) container. [1] It was distributed by Sundale Beverages of Belmont, California and sold mainly in the Midwest. [1]
The drink was often compared to Kool-Aid and came in the flavors grape, strawberry, cherry, peach, and orange. [2]
The accordion-like bottle was one of its most distinctive features. To prepare the drink, the container was stretched to expand it to its full size and water was added to the concentrated liquid in the bottle. The bottle would then contract again as you drank from it. [3]
The label included instructions for poking a hole in the cap to convert the container into an ad hoc squirt gun after finishing the drink. Popular Photography magazine recommended that the bottles could also be used for darkroom chemicals. [1] Packaging magazine reported children finding many other uses for the bottle. [4]

Banta Soda, or Banta, also Goli Soda or Goti Soda and Fotash Jawl, is a popular carbonated lemon or orange-flavoured soft drink sold in India since the late 19th century in a distinctly shaped iconic Codd-neck bottle. The pressure created by the carbonated liquid seals the bottle by forcing a glass marble up into the neck of the bottle where it snugly locks into a rubber gasket. Opening the bottle by pressing on the marble thus releasing the pressurised gas is seen to be a fun experience. The drink is easily available at street-sellers, known as bantawallahs, at prices ranging from ₹5 (6.3¢ US) – ₹30 (38¢ US). The drink is sold in glass tumblers and plastic cups, and used to be served in kulhars.
