Taste is, of course, the number one criterion. The world of sugar-free SodaStream flavours is vast?: from timeless classics like sugar-free SodaStream cola concentrate and fruity notes like citrus SodaStream concentrate, to the authentic tastes of your favourite brands thanks to official partnerships, such as SodaStream Pepsi Zero concentrate.

Sometimes, it's the little details that make the biggest difference. SodaStream understands this, which is why they've introduced a new drip-free cap on their bottles. No more guesswork with measurements or sticky spills on the countertop!?On the eco-friendly side, we also appreciate that the bottles are now made from 100% recycled plastic. It's another small step towards reducing waste.
