Soda Stream Review

Soda Stream Review
Have you heard the buzz about SodaStream? Across the nation, people are talking about the fun, ease and convenience of making fresh soda and seltzer at home using a SodaStream home soda maker.

What is SodaStream?
Now, you can turn water into fresh, fizzy sparkling water and soda in seconds?with no clean-up! No more lugging and storing bottles and cans from the store, and no more empties to recycle or throw away. Plus, SodaStream is a great value. You'll enjoy sparkling water for as little as 25 cents per liter, and soda for about 25 cents per can.

Imagine not having to buy soda again and having it home made and fresh whenever you want it in your own home. SodaStream, graciously allowed me to test out one of their wonderful " Soda Stream Makers. One thing you should know I always rely on my  hubby to put things together. But with the Soda stream I was able to set it up and ready to go in just a few easy steps !!

SodaStream also sent me a huge variety of all their syrup flavors- we have tried them all, and honestly can say we like them all very much. I think my all time favorite is the root beer. We love root beer floats here , exceptionally in the hot summer months. We thought before there was nothing better than home made vanilla bean ice cream but top that with home made root beer soda and its something indescribable. In our book it hits the " 100 things you must try before you die"

SodaStream offers over 30 great-tasting soda mix flavors, including traditional favorites like Cola, Orange and Root Beer, as well as exotic fruit flavors like Orange Mango and Diet Pink Grapefruit. SodaStream also features cocktail mixers, sparkling teas , even an energy drink! Regular flavors contain no high-fructose corn syrups, and diet flavors are sweetened with Splenda brand sweetener, not aspartame.

There are basically three easy steps to making your own soda in less than two minutes !
  • 1. Fill the SodaStream BPA bottle with fresh water.
  • 2. Attach to the machine and press it 3-4 times to carbonate the water
  • 3. Add the flavoring

What I love most about it is when I have guests over that perhaps are diet soda drinkers, something I don't keep on hand. I can easily make a batch in a few minutes for them.  You can purchase the flavorings at a variety of stores for about $5 a bottle. Each Syrup bottle makes approximately (12) 1 Liter Bottles. SodaStream, flavors are available in economy sized bottles. Each bottle of concentrated Soda Mix contains enough syrup to make about 12 liters or 33 cans of fresh, delicious soda.  .The COD Canister you can also exchange at a variety of stores for approximately $15 dollars but it does last a long time.  And for a frugal shopper such as myself that's a huge savings on soda for our family.


I must tell you one of my husbands favorite things is his name brand soda that he loves. He does not drink it fast enough and ultimately it goes flat. But with the SodaStream, he can use that to re-carbonate his soda- no more pouring flat soda down the drain!!! But he has been a great sport and found that the Soda Stream Flavor matches pretty close to what he is accustomed to and been using that. Almost time to get another bottle.

As someone who owned and operated a restaurant for five years- this at home SodaStream Home Made Soda Maker is just as comparable as a commercial fountain soda machine in any restaurant and/orstore - simply put made smaller for your home ! My husband and daughter really got into the action of preparing , testing and having a great time with the SodaStream as you can see from the pictures below. SodaStream is a great way to bring the family together for the little things that make family memories. Our is a big hit, and travels to all family functions now !!



Soda Stream has many different models for you to choose from.SodaStream Syrups are not sweetened with high fructose corn syrup, no preservatives and less salt- so for this is a great thing with watching my calorie intake as well as my salt intake.
