Beth Ann,

I don't know if this is the book in question, but Hugh Platt also wrote _The
Jewell House of Art and Nature_.  I have a copy of the book, but have not read
through it all to know if it has the reference you are looking for.  I don't
recall any references to carbonation in _Delightes for Ladies_, either (and my
copy vanished into the black hole of lending it to someone several years ago).

HTH

Wassail!
