Step 1.) Read the client order. An example client order may read ” I’ll have 16 ounces of fruit punch, 32 ounces of orange soda, and 64 ounces of ginger ale.

Step 2.) Start with the first item in the client order “16 ounces of fruit punch”. Select 1 pint (16 ounces) from the “cup size” menu.

Step 3.) Next, select “fruit punch” from the “soda types” menu.

Step 4.) Click on the “punch” bottle (the first one). Since you selected 1 pint from the cup size menu and fruit punch from the soda types menu, the bottle will fill 1 pint with fruit punch. Repeat as necessary to fill the rest of the order. Click “send” when you are satisfied. *NOTE – for an order that requires 48 or 64 ounces, you must make proper conversions (i.e. 64 ounces equals 2 quarts).
