SodaStream Review And Giveaway

To get back to the Bloggy Giveaway Carnival, click HERE!

Have you ever thought about how many bottles and cans you are wasting from drinking soda? Americans throw out hundreds of bottles and over 1500 cans every year!

The SodaStream soda maker saves all those bottles and cans from being thrown out or recycled! Their BPA-free plastic bottles are reusable for up to three years! The sodamix is highly concentrated and cuts down on packaging for that as well. There is no high-fructose corn syrup or aspartame in their huge variety of flavors!

The SodaStream allows you to make homemade soda. No electricity or batteries are needed so you are also saving on energy! The power needed comes from the compressed CO2 bottle. Once they are used, you can send them back to Soda-Club to be cleaned and refilled with CO2 drawn from the air!

It only takes seconds to make delicious soda in your own home! It is simple and fun to make. There are only 4 steps!
1-Fill the reusable bottle with water.
2-Hook it into the Soda Maker and add the fizz using a button.
3-Poor your desired flavor into the bottle.
4-Drink it!

We got a black/silver fountain Jet to match the rest of appliances in our kitchen! The Fountain Jet is sleek and modern looking so we just keep in on our counter.

I admit that I was a little hesitant and thought that it would be harder to use than they said, but it was actually really easy and only took a minute for us to have it set up and a bottle of soda ready to drink! I was also worried that it wouldn't taste very good, but we all loved it!

My parents, brother, and sister were all here to try it out with us! We were all pretty excited to give it a try! LOL, the smallest things can entertain us! I think we were all curious to see how it would all turn out.

For the first time that you use it, you have to put the CO2 bottle in the back.
Its really easy to just put it in place, after that you just put the cover back on!


You put the bottle filled with water in the slot and push the CO2 Carbonator button to add carbonation to the water. It says to do this about 3 times or until desired carbonation. We did it 3 times with the first bottle and we all agreed that it needed more carbonation than that! I would do it at least 4 times the first time you make some unless you don't like your drinks to be very carbinated! Each time you press the button, you will hear a fizz to let you know it is working.


We used the Fountain Mist(compare to Mountain Dew) SodaMix for our first try. All you have to do is fill the cap to the line and then poor it into the bottle. I think it tastes very good! Like I said though, with our first bottle, we didn't add as much Carbonation as we should have.


And that's all there is to it! After just a few steps, you get soda and can save the environment all at the same time! Just think of all the bottles and cans that my family is now saving! They carry many different flavors including regular and diet mixes!

Each of those Soda Mixes like in the picture make 12 liters of soda and are only $4.99! PLUS, if you buy 8, you get the 9th one free!
