Soda Stream

We got a Soda Stream! I am so excited. I've been wanting one for awhile now. My boyfriend works at Costco and a customer returned it (unused), so he got it at discount. Sweet!

Soda Stream soda is cheaper and healthier than regular sodas from the store. They do not contain high fructose corn syrup or aspartame. They contain half (or less) of the calories, carbs, sugar, sodium, and caffeine compared to regular sodas. Plus, it cuts down on bottles and cans being thrown away. WINNING! lol

My boyfriend refuses to drink water and chooses soda instead, so this will be a healthier (but not healthiest) option for him. Take what you can get. Right? We can also make carbonated waters or teas with this.

The unit is extremely easy and fast to use. It requires no power source, so it can be placed anywhere. You could even use it outside if you wanted to (camping anyone?). I like that it is not huge and fits nicely on my kitchen counter, out of the way.

We made the Root Beer, diet Dr. Pepper, and Orange Crush flavors already. I was not happy with the diet, but its the first one we made and I don't think we carbonated it enough. The other 2 tasted just like store bought soda. Could have made some yummy ice cream floats with the crush and root beer.

Well, that is my review on another awesome kitchen gadget. =)
