On the other hand, if you were to use 1 gallon of syrup from Coca-Cola, you would only be able to make about 6 gallons of soda from it, giving the syrup a 1:6 dilution ratio.
Because more syrup means diluting the carbonated water more, we’re doing more carbonation than we would with the regular SodaStream syrups. Some SodaStream machines make a series of “buzzing” noises, while others make what they call a “puff” noise — whichever type of machine you have, you know it when you hear it. They recommend between one and three of those noises for their syrups; with the Diet Coke syrup, we’ve settled on six noises. We tried eight, but that was overwhelmingly fizzy. Originally made to convert water into soda, the new SodaStream models put the bubbles into ALL of your drinks. The growing range of SodaStream syrups mean you can create lemonade, cola and even give your G&T a bit of fizz, too. Stylish and sleek, a SodaStream adds a touch of nostalgia to home bars and really gets the party popping. Fizzy funSodaStreams are fun for the whole family. You’ll find all your fizzy favourites in syrups for SodaStreams, like 7Up and Pepsi, and each 440ml bottle of SodaStream concentrate can make a whopping nine litres of flavoured drink, which should save you on lots of trips to the shops! As well as canned classics, you can get creative with SodaStream cordials, too, and make your own kombucha - there’s even a passionfruit and mandarin kombucha SodaStream cordial that not only tastes great, but that also contains a billion live probiotics per serving. That’s a lot of gut-friendly bacteria. Mix things up I love my Sodastream! But, sometimes I get tired of the store-bought syrups & flavors that are available. (Or I’m just looking to save some money!) Simple enough, right? The best part is, setting it up and making soda with it is very easy and user-friendly.
From fizzy water to the classic flavour of cola, you can have lots of fizzy fun with a SodaStream machine. The brand has been helping people carbonate water in the comfort of their own homes for more than 100 years - just attach the carbonating cylinder to the machine, fill a SodaStream bottle with water, slot it into place and hold down the button on top for a couple of seconds to let the fizz flow. Press the button several times to increase the carbonation until you achieve your desired result, et voila: your own alternative to shop-bought sparkling water. Get creative We ended up discovering that we didn’t need to pour any water our of the bottle after carbonating the water — we just fizz the water, then put in syrup until the bottle is full up to the spot where the plastic forms a natural line, where the bottle goes from a steeper curve to a much shallower curve. Muddled raspberries in a glass, plus a squeeze of orange. Add carbonated water for a simple soda that tastes great. This can also be an infusion flavor if you let the raspberry and orange slices sit in water for 10-12 hours, then filter before carbonating. 12. Peach Thyme I did some research, and found a blogger who’d gone all out on making actual Diet Coke with actual DC syrup with his SodaStream. He’s taken it WAY farther than we have, but … we may catch up eventually, depending on how much time and experimentation we’re willing to put in. For now, though, we have a pretty good setup going. This SodaStream recipe is both fresh and tropical tasting. It makes a great mixer with rum as well! You can also make a syrup using the syrup and a can of pineapple and letting it soak with mint. You only need a bit for a great homemade SodaStream syrup. 10. Blueberry & SageA simple squeeze of grapefruit and blood orange is a great way to flavor your SodaStream. 6. Lime & Raspberry Muddle raspberry at the bottom of your glass and then add a squeeze of lime. Top it off with your carbonated water. 7. Raspberries, Lime, & Basil If you’re using a SodaStream the right way, he says, you might reap some of the system’s proposed benefits. But you also have to be careful. Here’s what you need to know about SodaStream in terms of calories, sugar, and your health. How does SodaStream work, anyway?
Finally you want to mix your syrup with carbonated water from your SodaStream. I imagine this varies depending on the brand of syrup, Coca Cola advises to mix 5 parts carbonated water to 1 part of syrup. Therefore to make 500ml, mix 83ml (500 divided by 6) of syrup with the remainder carbonated water. To make 330ml, mix 55ml (330ml divided by 6) of syrup with the rest carbonated water. We buy Pom from Costco and use just a couple tablespoons and a squeeze of lemon for a delicious drink! 3. Strawberry & Mint This date is apparently 75 days after the syrup was manufactured. As you can see, we’re now past April 2, 2018 … and we aren’t even half-done with the bag of syrup. I’m glad we got the 2.5-gallon size! I’m comfortable going beyond this date—it’s like so many things with a “best by” date; there isn’t anything wrong with the product beyond that date, but they want you to buy more, y’know?
Other SodaStream REcipe Ideas
I found that it’s best to carbonate your water more than you would normally, to make up for the syrup which isn’t carbonated at all. Infuse water with raspberries and basil for 6-10 hours. Carbonate the water and then top off with a squeeze of lemon. 8. Cantaloupe & Cucumber Making soda with a SodaStream device and drinking it is considered to be a healthier alternative than drinking traditional sodas, such as Coca-Cola. Let’s get to making! Coke syrups aren’t as concentrated as the SodaStream syrups; it takes more syrup to fully flavor a liter of pop. Most folks say it’s a 5-to-1 ratio of water to syrup, but we did some weighing, calculating, long division, and experimenting to figure out what tasted right to us. I think it’s a bit less syrup than a full 5-to-1. Screw the bottle into place on the front of the soda stream cokedevice (some models require screwing the bottle into place, others require snapping it into place)
