Perhaps there should be a drink table with a one-to-many relationship to
an ingredients table...since then one could choose their own ingredients
and drink type (and you could add the assorted flavored syrups and
instant coffees in as well).
Maybe a little chalk area on one side where one could write their own
query to populate the drink table, and a referential integrity
constraint to prevent unauthorized ingredients... ;-)
A NOTIFY on insert trigger might be good as well, so one could drink as
soon as the beverage-making transaction was completed, or notify when
hot (though that would preclude ice in the ingredients)
PS..I'm mostly kidding here...
