I’m slightly surprised by all the comments here about syrups. Our SodaStream is used a couple of times a day to make soda water, and I can’t remember the last time a flavouring was added. Mind you, it always surprises me to hear people say they don‘t like the taste of water.

It always surprises me to hear that people enjoy carbonated water. Different strokes. The only way I can stand carbonation is with some flavor. Tap water is just fine to me.

I think the carbonated water drinkers are very happy with SodaStreams. The flavored soda drinkers have mixed opinions.

I think they are great, as I like to drink about a liter of seltzer a day.

I like the Le Croix flavors in a can, and I often add bitters to plain seltzer. There are a ton of varieties of bitters available these days.
