Cool Not really nutrition, but a carbonation question..

Okay girls and guys.... here's one for ya... There's a new drink, well, new to me, I've never seen it before, at Albertson's called Clear Excellence and I was told that it was carbonation free!!! WELL, it's NOT!!!
I got three bottles of it on Sunday, really cool flavors too, but anyway, I sipped it after it had gotten cold, and WHOA, bubbles!!!! YIKES! Well, I took the top off of it and left it out of the fridge until today, this sucker STILL has bubbles in it!!! Is there anyway to remove carbonation, or should I just toss it??
I don't mind doing that if it's going to stretch my "baby pouchie"
I just thought I'd ask the people in the know!!
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me!

I've also heard that you can put it in a blender and whir it for a sec to get them out. I've never tried it. Also, maybe pour it in a glass and let it sit out for awhile. Let us know what works!

Sandi,
You can also pour it back and forth between two glasses a few times, that should pop all those aggravating bubbles!

Default Popping those darn bubbles...

Sandi,

Whenever I had a stomach ache as a kid, my mom used to pour 7-up in a glass and stir it with a spoon. The spoon wasn't special it was just Oneida, but it worked. Made the soda flat. Hope that helps.

Andi

Default Sandi-

You are too sweet. You are doing such a great job! You keep up the good work. I'm glad to know you and everyone else in here. You all are my rocks and inspirations!!!!! I couldn't have done this without all of you. Of course, I can't forget my wonderful husband. He has been there for me every step of the way. I love him more now than I did before, he's just been great. Okay, enough of the mushy stuff!!!
