Most people buy their sodas from the grocery store, gas stations marts and convenience stores. Sodas can be expensive and they create a lot of waste. The commercial brand soda products are full of unhealthy ingredients and calories. Most contain high fructose corn syrup, sugar and aspartame. Now in the comfort of your own home and with regular tap water you can create your own healthier sodas. They cost less to make also.
Sparkling water can be made from your tap water in seconds. The instructions are simple, just add the soda syrup mixture and water to start making your own creations. You choose the type of syrup and the amount you like. Each soda can contain as little or as many calories as you determine. For weight conscious people this makes calorie counting much easier and tastier. The soda syrup is available in many different flavors. You control the amount that is added to your soda. For people that have a difficult time trying to give up high calorie sodas, this could help them. Some people created their own homemade soda syrup.
If more people made their own sodas, it could cut down on the amount of waste from aluminum cans and plastic soda bottles. It helps the environment in a small way. You can enjoy being green and own an appliance that is Eco-friendly. Not only will the environment benefit from your switch but your body could also benefit from making your own sodas. Dieters start drinking more water and fewer sodas when they start a new diet or fitness plan. Sodas can ruin your diet because they are full of empty calories and additives. Even diet sodas have been found to have a negative effect on your efforts toward losing weight. If you make your own sodas, you will know exactly what is going into it. You can cut back on the sugar and additives.
A soda maker can help your budget too. A bottled soda is priced around $1.50 or more and that does not include taxes. Some people can drink three of four sodas a day. With the home soda maker you can save that money and make your own soda for about $.10 per serving. You decide how much to make at one time and can save the rest or share it. You can have your own soda, sparkling water or seltzer made in your home at anytime for cents less than buying at a supermarket.
