Apparatus for dispensing soft drinks comprises a cabinet placed on the end of a conventional grocery store aisle. The cabinet has three sections; an upper section, a central section, and a lower section. Containers of soft drink syrup are removably located within the lower section of the cabinet and connected to the remainder of the apparatus by tubing. The upper section includes a conventional carbonation factory connected to a source of water remote from the apparatus. Water entering the apparatus passes through a cooler and the carbonation factory to produce carbonated water. Also disposed within the interior of the upper section are a plurality of pumps. The pumps are placed in communication with each source of syrup to force the syrup upwardly through the device by way of a syrup line, which is in turn placed in communication with the source of carbonated water to form a soft drink. Once the syrup component is mixed with the carbonated water component, it is then pumped downwardly to the center section of the cabinet. The center section of the cabinet includes a plurality of dispensing pumps and dispensing nozzles for dispensing the freshly mixed soft drink into a container. A waste container for collecting excess waste liquid is disposed in the lower section. The waste container includes a pump and conduit which extends through the top of the cabinet for removing the waste liquid.
