Topic: Making your own soda? Stay away from the prefab stuff!
Hi All. Second post and first thread-saw a great article your readers might like. A friend got a sodastream machine a couple of years back and I thought it a great gadget til I tasted some of the syrups. Awful and she also started diluting them then giving up and just buying regular cane sugar-based syrups (popular here in Europe) or juice! Seems they use Splenda in their stuff and it is a bit expensive too boot.

There are other brands out there too to make your own fizzy drinks-much cheaper and healthier.
Well unless you mix vodka or rum in them. *ahem*
(Just on occasion).
