Who wants an ice cold soda in the dead of winter? Wouldn't you rather have a nice warm tea? I saw in Japan vending machines which sold cold drinks as well as warm drinks. Great in the winter time!

They already have coffee & tea machines in a lot of places. Have had 'em for many years.

Machine would need to be big to hold both cold and hot drinks and cooler, heater, etc.

The warm drinks in Japan hit the spot!

Oh, yeah, I remeber these machines from when I was a boy. I loved getting hot chocolate from them. But that was 30 years ago. The one in my office now has Chai tea, mochas, etc. I hope they get them in whatever country Eric lives in soon so that he can enjoy them, too!
