Can you believe that making soda is very easy while at home itself?
Crazy, right?
You don't have to worry about the big ingredients because you can easily make soda at home with just a few simple ingredients which are available at everyone's place!
Simply add one pound of dry ice to one gallon of water, stir, and you're done.
The subsequent reaction produces vaporization, fog, and, yes, the type of carbonation required to produce carbonated water.
Quick fact:
In terms of mineral content, soda water is similar to sparkling water. The primary distinction between the two is that, unlike sparkling water, soda water is not naturally carbonated. When soda water is infused with minerals, it becomes carbonated.

• The simplest and quickest approach to manufacture your own soda is to produce a
thick flavoring and mix it with already-carbonated soda water. Skip to the next step
and brew your own if you want to start from scratch. Making syrup saves you the
effort of dealing with yeast and functions similarly to an old-fashioned soda jerk or
a modern soda machine in a small pot.
• Mix the following ingredients:
------ 1 cup granulated sugar
------ about 1/2 cup of water
------ 1/2 cup fresh fruit juice, or two tablespoons of flavor extract

• Whisk vigorously to keep the sugar flowing while being cautious not to burn it.
• It should completely dissolve and make a thick syrup. Bring the syrup to a boil over
high heat.

• Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook
until half of the mixture is gone.
• It will appear thick and sweet, which is a
good thing.
• It should be extremely sweet and
concentrated, ideal for diluting with cold
soda water.

• Allow the syrup to cool before storing it in an easily accessible container in the
refrigerator.
• It should last a few weeks, if not longer.
• If you have a sports water bottle, it would be ideal for storage.
• You may store a spray or two of the syrup in the fridge door, portioned out for each
glass of soda you wish to prepare.

• Fill a glass halfway with soda water and add
a little spray of soda syrup, thoroughly mixing
it with a spoon until it is integrated.
• Taste it and add more if desired or dilute it
more with additional soda water.
• Enjoy while cooled.

• If you have a carbonator, you can
even produce your own soda water
to simplify the procedure and
prepare everything yourself.
• While a carbonator might be
expensive, you can start
manufacturing your own soda water
for free.
• If you drink a lot of it, it will quickly
pay for itself.
