SodaStream: Turn Water into Sparkling Water and Soda

So you've seen the commercial, seen it in different stores throughout the country.  This is the new must-have kitchen gadget.  Pictured above is the genesis unit which starts at $99.95

With over 60 flavors, diet and regular sodastream is an awesome alternative not only for soda drinkers but for the environment. and it's sooo convenient.  

In less than one minute I turned bottled water into sparkling water (which I drink a lot of due to my low tolerance for sugar so my tummy gets upset often-so this is great for my household) 

Simply fill the carbonation bottle with water, twist the bottle in place, press a button fizz fizz then buzz and Voila!!

I love the fact that it does not require an electrical outlet (which was very surprising but AWESOME).

AND the stylish look.

As to the flavor, it tastes just like the real "unhealthy" thing ;)  I love the orange and ginger ale especially to mix with the more fun drinks (wink wink).  The mixes are concentrates so a little goes a long way.  A few drops into carbonated water and I had a soda.

One thing that got my attention was that the carbonation bottle has an expiration date.  Why would a container expire (dumb question to some - sorry) but I was then explained that since the bottle has to withstand recurring pressure from carbonation, it cannot be used forever. The expiration date on the bottle must be checked and new bottles purchased as soon as the former expires. The bottles must also be replaced if put in the dishwasher, exposed to a heat source, or if they have become scratched. All components of carbonating bottles are recyclable. 

one reusable bottle of Sodasteam saves the earth from 2000 bottles and cans.
