A new range of SodaStream concentrates have been announced by the PepsiCo-owned brand to offer consumers the ability to make their favorite sparkling drink flavors from the comfort of home.
10 familiar flavor varieties were announced by the brand including Pepsi and Mountain Dew, which can be created from home using a SodaStream soda-making appliance. Consumers will be able to enjoy homemade soft drinks at a cost of $0.93 per liter, which is a slight savings compared to the usual $0.95 it costs to purchase readymade alternatives from stores. The biggest advantage of the new SodaStream concentrates will be to help consumers drastically cut their purchase of single-use plastic bottles in favor of reusable ones.
