Have you heard of SodaStream? I’m really excited to share it with you because I just won one of my own and I can’t wait to get it!

Sodastream allows you to make carbonated water and soft drinks at home. You can turn tap water into sparkling water in under 30 seconds, with no clean-up. You can also make soda, and adjust the fizz to your taste as well as add the flavor of your choice. According to reviews I’ve read about the product, it is simple to clean and reuse.

SodaStream is also an “Active Green” product. This means you are are actively reducing your CO2 footprint every time you use it to make soda or sparkling water at home instead of buying it from the store.

Since SodaStream uses water straight from the tap, the system makes traditional store-bought soda and water bottles obsolete. So less plastic is manufactured, less plastic waste is created, and fewer bottled beverages must be transported from manufacturers to distributors to stores to homes. And that’s a good thing!

One SodaStream carbonator makes 60 or 110 liters…that’s the equivalent to 170 or 310 aluminum cans! When empty, the carbonator is refilled and reused, ready to make more fizzy and tasty soda whenever you want it.

And I love that you can make soda using all natural flavors. Their Sparkling Naturals contain no artificial flavors, no artificial colors and no artificial sweeteners, and do not contain any preservatives, making them a perfect, sparkling, natural soda alternative for the entire family.

I can’t wait to get mine! Is this something you would buy for your family?

    Yes! I am trying to get my kids off pop completely, but they want it every time we go out. It’s so bad, so unhealthy, so full of empty calories and yet … nothing like it, right?

    This sounds promising. I know you got yours free, but what’s the retail cost?

    I’m one of those loonies who never liked coke, never could understand how people take good flavors and add fizz to it. So I’m out. For my father, on the other hand, this would be a great buy. I’m laughing when i remember how before I got married, I stocked up on food in the supermarket. Knowing that the men in my life like Seltzer, I bought it for my husband. It lay in my pantry for two years, before i used the bottle as an extra rolling pin, before finally trashing it.
