A soft drink dispenser is provided with a soda generator and cooling tank which employs the consumable ice from an ice bin as a source for cooling the soda while being maintained apart from the ice. Both the ice bin and soda tank are maintained upon a common cooling plate having serpentine passages for prechilling water before introduction into the soda tank. The ice within the bin serves as an energy source for the cooling plate which acts as a heat sink to provide a thermally conductive path for assuring that the soda within the tank is kept at a desirably low level.
