It may be just me, but I love drinking bubbles. I always pour the drink out to maximise the bubbles and then sip them down before they effervesce away. It makes for some burping problems but I love the sensation of drinking a gas. It seems wholly modern. Or something.
I'm always surprised that no-one makes a carbonated drink that emphasises this element. Not since the days of 'It's frothy, man' anyway.
Hi thr,
Pepsi India did a campaign on this whole bubble thingy few months back. It was 'Oye bubbly' (Translated: Hey bubbly). The jingle was very nice and became a hit, "Hey bubbly, hey bubbly, be my lover bubbly, I wanna be your man"
Cheers
Sunny

I always eat the frothy bit of the capaccino before drinking the coffee part. It feels like cheating and it feels good.

I used to blow into the straw of my chocolate milk so that it would bubble up to the top... I would then drink all the bubbles as quickly as possible, before they disappeared.

Modern high gastronomy has some dishes with bubble emphasis ("Champagne grapes" from Homaru Cantu, "Aires y espumas" from the Culinary God Ferrán Adriá). Really, you're eating air or CO2 but is an incredible experience and I think you'd like a lot.
