Forget the syrups that come with the soda stream. I buy lime cordial, vimto or other cordials. Just fizz your chilled water and add to the cordial works brilliant for me. Im drinking about 2 litres of lime and soda a night.
My experience with soda stream has more to do with the water I use than the actual flavoring I use. It must be reverse osmossis filtered water at the very least. Just tap water will taste terrible in it. RO filtered and it tastes like genuine store bought soda. But I like to use it mostly to make zero sugar or low sugar flavored sodas-IE grape, orange, fruit punch, etc, because those are so hard to come by in the stores. But this video really made me curious to try out more cola syrup varieties.
Use Demineralised Water that's what MacDonald does they use 4Filters to remove everything not H20 so the syrup does not have to contend with other flavours this is also what they do at Bottling Plants it's never just plain Tap Water
If you want a really good cola you need to try monin cola syrup, made with pure cane sugar & no other artificial sweeteners, tastes like a coke before the high fructose corn syrup, they have many flavors to choose from, I am building a collection of their flavors, sodastream uses sugar plus artificial sweeteners also
I disagree, you have to drive somewhere to exchange the expensive tanks. Only real soda from the bottle tastes good and its cheaper. You dont have to store soda just buy it when you shop. I got one of these and you can have it.
@@RadioRich100 have you seen the price of soda, reason store brand are mostly out of stock and name brands left. I buy 5 gallon syrup bibs under $45 delivered and use 3.5 oz. Every 1 litter bottle.
Hint - your car will hold more than 1 bottle of soda as your house will. Your getting an inferior product to save space and spend more money. You paid almost $100 for that stupid dispenser and $15 or more for those canisters which you have to go to certain places to get. How many bottles of soda can you buy for the costs youve encountered plus the flavor cost? It doesnt work. You might as well buy a cow to get the milk.
what is cool about soda stream is that you can dose your amount of sugar and dilution. I like the soda stream better. Also, it tastes fresher because the aromas just been mixed
Part of this comparison tells me that people are acustomed to drinking Coke from a can.... This would be bias. I remember Coke from the years before high fructose syrup and 'New Coke', it was far better and I think Soda Stream is close to the original Coke.
It's not a fair comparison since Sodastream is lower calorie and has diet sweeteners. So it will not taste "the same". I have a Sodastream that I used hard-core (daily) for a good 2-3 years until Sodastream messed up the Energy mix and also went to the smaller bottles of syrup.
we just bought our sodastream today and have tried the cola , Dr. Pete, lemon lime and orange , using the full recommend amount of cola flavoring the cola tastes like a flat Pepsi ...waaay to sweet , the lemon /lime tastes like Sierra Mist , the Dr. Pete was very close to a real Dr. Pepper but it had a slight hint of vanilla , the Orange was very good , after our 1st round of taste test's , i poured a 1/2 glass of the cola then added the rest of the glass with real coco cola that i had in the fridge, it definitely improved the taste of the soda stream cola
a problem here is he told them what each was, they were basically just trying to guess which was coke and say that was better. It made it less about them actually taste testing and more jus them guessing which was coca cola.
This looks like a PR ad for soda stream. I got one of these for xmas. It makes no sense to make your own soda anymore than you should buy a cow to make your own milk. The soda coming out of it doesnt taste as good, as a matter of fact it has a funny taste to it. Its more expensive to make it and is very inconvenient as you must exchange the expensive co2 tanks (thats one of the ways they get you) not to mention the syrups they sell. All that machine does is carbonate tap water (club soda). You can buy the super cheap club soda yourself and mix in anything you want and drink it right out of the same bottle. You dont need that machine. Its just a fad there trying to start to get you to pay all that money (almost $100 JUST FOR THE MACHINE!) just to carbonate the water. They also promote the environmentally friendly angle because no soda bottles but thats what your local recycling facility is for. I would not buy one.
the soda stream coca cola only has half the calories and only tastes half as good, if one neglects to double if not triple the quantity of syrup used. of course straight out the can coke is going to taste better but it is the novelty of the sodastream itself which has ensured it remained popular over the years.
Ive had a soda stream for years. We usually pour the spritzed water in a glass with juice (and maybe gin for special occaisions). We just tried a syrup and it's pretty good. Definately tastes off brand and my husband swears it smells "chemically" though i dont smell it. It is worth a try if you already have a soda stream. But the water can be used for so much more on its own. Add spritzed water to a blender with frozen fruit and it is to die for.
I mostly bought it for carbonated water/ cocktails. It's worth it not because of the cost but because of the effort it saves you and Pollution to the environment. I bought it because i got tired of schlepping 4 crates of carbonated water and soda from the store every month and stacking them up in the house, then trying to dispose of /recycle the empties. Makes life much easier for my family to just recharge the co2.
Weve tried everything we can think of with ours. Sodastream still tastes like crap. If im going to drink soda, I already know its not the best for me. So dont make it different from national brands, I hate diet soda. I hate the tastes of aspertine (sp), which soda streams sodas taste like diet sodas. I dont care if its "healthier" if I want "healthier" I wouldnt drink soda. Duhhh.
Or better yet make your own soda...and btw aspartame is less healthy than sugar sodas. Diet sodas do not help you loose weight and increase your chance of cancer. Honstly though if I'd get myself a soda stream I'd want to make home flavors
Gabzo Avro So we've had ours for over a month, and there it now sits. Collecting dust on the shelf. We thought about grabbing a cube of Coca-Cola syrup from Sams Club. But they want 75 bucks a pop, and with 10 gallons of syrup. I'm sure it would expire before we could use it all. Either way, all the flavors taste like "Sheyot". Like I said, it's soda... everyone knows soda is not healthy. If you want to be healthy go drink some juice, or water. Why make this "non-diet" which is TOTALLY diet, bull shit. It's awful. ... I suggest everyone to hold off on buying a Soda Stream - Wait until Cocoa-Cola's machine comes out. Their apparently suppose to be partnering up with Keruig (Spelling?). I'm sure theirs will taste much better.
@jrbqto ok so I think you missunderstood me. I suggest you make YOUR OWN soda. Not a premade syrup from coca cola or one from soda stream because honestly get it premade if you're going to get with one like that...unless you plan on having galons of that shit it's probably not worth iti. I meant make your own syrup get to creating. I think that's the beauty of any machine such as this. Pre packaged crap is useless imo. There are videos online of different recipes and you can always try your own and perfect it
SODASTREAM HACK: Go to Bulk store i.e. (Sam's Club, BJ' s, Costco) Buy Coca-Cola syrup in a box designed for fountain soda machines use syrup in soda stream. Note: you will have enough Cola to last year based on drinking 40oz of Cola daily...
heres the real reason why... its mixed just then soda cand and bottles sit for weeks at a time at stores.. when you buy a soda at mcdonalds its mixed just then and fresh co2 thats why it tastes better.. fo folks get a home soda dispenser
Because of the pandemic i got me a Sodastream machine electric ⚡️ not a soda drinker but do like one once in a while its not cost effective at all but do like that its less sugar that regular soda, i did try 4 flavors lime lemon,orange,cola and honestly they taste really good love the orange to me taste just like Sunkist, the strawberry watermelon one is not bad but its not as sweet its got no sugars but its ok if you need flavor in your water, this is not cheap to keep up but i just like having the convenience of making it fresh when i want some soda at dinner time wanna try the Gingerale but can’t find it at my Walmart but i have to say the lime lemon cola and orange sodastream brand taste really good if your a soda drinker you will love it and its less sugar than a can of soda I recommend it.
I so needed this video bc I have been wanting a soda stream device but I am not a fan of diet soda with that Splenda taste so I was wondering what the cola tasted like.

@@RadioRich100 Too late, already purchased one, and it can be used for more than just Soda. This thing pays for itself. Carbonated water per bottle adds up in the end, and you'll end up spending more than the cost of the machine. Also, i'll be using Spring Water to carbonate, not tap water.
@@MisterUrbanWorld Carb water is super cheap and the machine and gas tank exchanges are very expensive. I dont see you saving money with it. If you are barely saving it would have to be an awful lot of carb water to do it. That with the hassle of cycling the tanks just isnt worth it. I got mine for xmas Im so glad I didnt buy it.
@@MisterUrbanWorld I just bought one and i'm going to buy a 20lb tank with an adapter to fit my sodastream that I will refill every 1- 2 years, I use distilled water and only carbonate with the plastic bottle, I transfer the soda to a double walled glass tumbler and use a ton of cheap flavored syrups, and I don't have to lug home a heavy case of pop or soda every 3 weeks 😁
Coca cola has a distinct flavour, well of course it does.. but overall, it's not as pleasant as a good cola syrup. Yup the algorithm has brought me back here again
why would someone spen 100-200$ for machine and 40$ for co2 can when you can buy 2L club soda for under a dollar at walmart ? i use club soda all the time for my water enhancers
Carbonated drinks are acidic, which is the opposite of sweet. That is, unless you add sugar to the drink. But that's your choice. Yes, I carbonate juice, but you can't do that with a Sodastream machine because it will foam to much.
I was thinking could you maybe carbonate the water, then add the flavor syrup then add some simple syrup to gain some of the missing calories and sweetness
Ieishdragyn I always thought that their root beer had menthol or something in the syrup. Like drinking a Newport, lol! I just buy root beer concentrate from a Super Walmart (usually McCormick brand) or from a home brew supply shop, or on line. Just add a tablespoon of it to a liter of simple syrup.
One reason that people don't understand. Is because it's healthier. It has half the calories and it doesn't have all those artificial syrup/flavour. That's why it tastes a tad different. I have one at home :3 I have the SodaStream Source. I love it :3 I have Lemon,Apple,root beer,cola,orange,mango :3
Soda Stream literally uses syrup. You CANNOT make soda without syrup. It's ALL artificial. You think you find Coke syrup in nature?! No, you don't. There's also no point in drinking "healthier" soda, because there is no such thing. It's all bad for you. PERIOD.
This looks like a PR ad for soda stream. I got one of these for xmas. It makes no sense to make your own soda anymore than you should buy a cow to make your own milk.

Yes, but they were biased. People who prefer Coca-Cola rather than other colas, will prefer Coca-Cola rather than another cola. Not everyone prefers Coca-Cola and this might be for them.
I have a soda stream, and I can assure that there is a difference, but you can tell that it is a cola. Chances are, if you get a Soda Stream and buy the syrup, then the minute difference there is in the flavors will not matter.
+ipadgirl72 well, club soda (or fizzy water) is nearly as expensive as the coke itself. In the UK, a 2L bottle of coke is £1.85. 2x1L bottles of sparkling water (they don't come in 2L) is £1.30. you still have the mixture to pay for as well. it's not like it's going to save you anything. at the very most 5p per litre.
Try monin syrups, made with pure cane sugar & no other artificial sweeteners, I can't get enough of their cola,they have so many flavors to choose from
@@neilhamill318 Yup I just carbonate in the 0.5L plastic bottle and then add it to my double walled glass tumbler, also 0.5L and add the syrup, stir and enjoy.
An incredibly unscientific test. Not even double-blind, the people know what they're comparing, A is ALWAYS the same one, as is B, what are people accustomed to... etc. etc. etc.
You do not make money, you just get money that you have already spent back. With the amount of Soda I drank, I found that it was much cheaper to use the Soda Stream. If the flavour is what you look for and you can only stand certain brands, then Name brand bottles and cans are the way to go.
You did the shutters flavour of course Coca Cola is gonna taste better because of how hard it is to replicate you should have tried a different flavour
It will foam too much. That's also why you have to add the concentrate after carbonating the water. If you want to carbonate beer, you should get a keg system.
@@insertcolorherehawk3761 A couple years ago PepsiCo bought the soda stream company. And they now produce an official syrup - you defo aren’t gonna safe money using it, but if you care about the plastic waste, then sure it’s good
Why don't they ask all the soft drink companies to tell us their recipe? We won't have to buy any more plastic bottles anymore, ending plastic pollution. Greedy bastards.
How? No its not. If want healthier dont drink soda period. That machine dont make it healthy all it does is put fizz in water. Just buy club soda super cheap.

The soda coming out of it doesnt taste as good, as a matter of fact it has a funny taste to it. Its more expensive to make it and is very inconvenient as you must exchange the expensive co2 tanks (thats one of the ways they get you) not to mention the syrups they sell. All that machine does is carbonate tap water (club soda). You can buy the super cheap club soda yourself and mix in anything you want and drink it right out of the same bottle. You dont need that machine. Its just a fad there trying to start to get you to pay all that money (almost $100 JUST FOR THE MACHINE!) just to carbonate the water. They also promote the environmentally friendly angle because no soda bottles but thats what your local recycling facility is for. I would not buy one.
I thought they drank from the same cup in a Covid place 😂
Wonder if the cola is as good now that Pepsi owns the company.
These things aren't even new. My mom got us a @ home soda maker way back in the 90s. It was very similar to this, just a little more primitive.
Coke won
Yes, but they were biased. People who prefer Coca-Cola rather than other colas, will prefer Coca-Cola rather than another cola. Not everyone prefers Coca-Cola and this might be for them.
If you cannot tell the difference then most likely you're really not a Coca Cola person. I am 100% I would always know the difference. :)
Less calories = less delicious
Fewer* calories = less delicious
I have a soda stream there really is no difference
I have a soda stream, and I can assure that there is a difference, but you can tell that it is a cola.
Chances are, if you get a Soda Stream and buy the syrup, then the minute difference there is in the flavors will not matter.
If you are going to insist on trying to show your vanilla tattoos off, wear a short sleeve shirt.
at least it was an honest video
The classic sodastream fart
The Asian dude’s hand is ripped although his face looks like he’s in high school. 😎👍
I just tried the comparison and have bought my last Coke. Soda stream cola is so much better.
Or I could just buy fizzy water and add flavoring or koolaid to that
+ipadgirl72 well, club soda (or fizzy water) is nearly as expensive as the coke itself. In the UK, a 2L bottle of coke is £1.85. 2x1L bottles of sparkling water (they don't come in 2L) is £1.30. you still have the mixture to pay for as well. it's not like it's going to save you anything. at the very most 5p per litre.
+Yousef Noori (JoeyGames) thx I thought it was a waste
What? It's like 30p for a 2L bottle of fizzy water.
No comparison to real coke, I like my sodastream and would not change it. Fail on its coke product.
Try monin syrups, made with pure cane sugar & no other artificial sweeteners, I can't get enough of their cola,they have so many flavors to choose from
Soda maker sodastream machine ✅️ is better than sodas in the stores
Both are American (USA) companies so they must taste similar.
Cilantro and honey caramel
I had to trash 2 sodastreans bc they both broke on me so no, I'll stick with my flat nitro pepsi. 😆
Two things keeping me from getting Soda Stream #1- is it a plastic bottle (Yuk) and #2- your always out of diet tonic flavor!
Not hard to transfer the carbonated water to a glass bottle then add the syrup.
@@neilhamill318 Yup I just carbonate in the 0.5L plastic bottle and then add it to my double walled glass tumbler, also 0.5L and add the syrup, stir and enjoy.
Imma coke addict and I need something as good or better :/
An incredibly unscientific test. Not even double-blind, the people know what they're comparing, A is ALWAYS the same one, as is B, what are people accustomed to... etc. etc. etc.
Yeah it tastes good for the moment but it’s wack. Don’t waste your money on buying it
Just shareholders there
Save your money.. cost & hassle of gas kills the point.
You should soda stream soda
Soda carbonation paradox
I'd rather still buy carbonated sodas from stores because when i return the i get moneeeeeeey
You do not make money, you just get money that you have already spent back. With the amount of Soda I drank, I found that it was much cheaper to use the Soda Stream.
If the flavour is what you look for and you can only stand certain brands, then Name brand bottles and cans are the way to go.
You did the shutters flavour of course Coca Cola is gonna taste better because of how hard it is to replicate you should have tried a different flavour
Bullshit! My company had one of these and soda stream tasted like generic cola .
Shut up and take my money!
Recarnonate flat pop, soda, soda pop.
this video just saved me £50
Not if you bought that machine it didnt.
Sodastream is better than sodas in the store
I wonder if you can do that with beer
It will foam too much. That's also why you have to add the concentrate after carbonating the water. If you want to carbonate beer, you should get a keg system.
TURN OFF THE MUSIC WHEN PEOPLE ARE TALKING!!!!!!
Can you use can pop with soda Stream
its because you used tap water
Can you put actual pepsi syrup that I manage to get?
Yes, if you're willing to mix the syrup yourself
@@insertcolorherehawk3761 A couple years ago PepsiCo bought the soda stream company. And they now produce an official syrup - you defo aren’t gonna safe money using it, but if you care about the plastic waste, then sure it’s good
Too bad that's not the same stuff that they sell now.
Where is Elon Milk
*yes*
Soda stream against MEXICAN Coca-Cola
Mexican
Real sugar instead of chemicals and glass bottle
Why don't they ask all the soft drink companies to tell us their recipe? We won't have to buy any more plastic bottles anymore, ending plastic pollution. Greedy bastards.
the second one tastes like WOW cancer ...:))))
I can get the cola to taste just like pepsi.. but the after taste has that diet flavor. Which I hate.
Try distilled water 😁
@@newfdogg
Heck no! Distilled water is unsafe to drink!
People shouldn't drink distilled water!
Root Beer for me
Hell yeah
Do you ever just A-10 wort hog
Sodastream is healthier.
WWEReactionsAndNews Who wants health when your drinking death in a can (also I do not care if anything is put in it except mentos)
How? No its not. If want healthier dont drink soda period. That machine dont make it healthy all it does is put fizz in water. Just buy club soda super cheap.
infomercial
No
this guy is cute 😏
