Now I'm only 36 years young, but I've had phosphates. They're still served around Indiana at old drive-ins and diners. They're basically flavored sodas that result from mixing a flavor with soda water. My favorite is cherry. One diner that I've been to actually sells "cola phosphates" that are cola flavored. I'm not sure that there is much medicinal value any more than Coke and Pepsi claimed when they first came on the scene.
One popular flavor of phosphate (especially in the midwest) is the "Green River." It's actually a trade-marked soda that's bright green with a strong lime flavor, but shops call their own mixes by the same name. There ought to be an ordinance against that.
