Title: Soda Sippin' sodas with stuck beads?
Post by: foalpatrol on February 20, 2017, 02:38:29 PM
I have a couple of sodas for the Soda Sippin' ponies, where some or all of the beads no longer come up the straw.  I wondered if anyone knew of a fix for this.  I thought about putting a thin wire down the hole in the straw and jiggling it around, but I don't have a thin enough wire.  Has anyone discovered a fix for the stuck beads?

I used warm soapy water and sucked it down the soda stew on mine. Submerge in water, squeeze and repeat. Once you get them loose repeat with clean water to get the soap out.

Thanks, it worked!  Although I could see some of the colour running off the beads so next time I think I'll skip the soap and just use cold water.  They're drying in the sun at the moment.  One had so much gunk inside, possibly some kid's drool from 25 odd years ago... ugh!
