The soda fountain and soda fountain prototype are constructible settlement objects added in the Fallout 4 add-on Vault-Tec Workshop.
Characteristics
There are four variants of the soda fountain: the unique prototype built during the quest The Watering Hole and configured through a terminal, and three generic variants that can be built after the quest depending on what parameter was applied to the prototype.
Each variant requires 2 Power and an assigned settler to function.
As with the slot machine, all settlers will periodically visit it to get a drink once it is operational including guards and off duty vendors.
Crafting
The prototype is located in the Special section of the workshop crafting menu during the quest The Watering Hole. Once the quest is finished, the soda fountain is located under Resources → Vault and can be built in any settlement.
All variants require the same materials to build.
