SodaStream Sparkling Drink, Dr Pete, 14.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 4)

This is basically concentrated Red Bull 🪽syrup. It tastes like Red Bull…so obviously I don’t recommend if you dislike that flavor. I happen to like it.And…You DON’T NEED a soda stream machine either…. You can put it in any sparkling water, iced tea, Gatorade, Diet Coke, whatever you choose.I really enjoy this. It saves me money over buying cans of Red Bull, and I don’t use it every day (mostly bc of all the sugar,) but I do keep it handy because when I need a boost it’s there.Sonic drive-ins sell Red Bull Slushes & They even sell it straight by the can for (I think) 3.99 per small 8oz can. 💸😬🍡Cane sugar not HFCS, another plus ✔️It’s a tasty pick-me-up. Kind of fun to use, you can be your own mixologist 👄🥤💫

This is my go to flavor for the soda stream. It’s very refreshing and not too sweet. I’ve reordered it many times and never get tired of it. I like not having to lug in big boxes of soda anymore and it takes much less space to store. I like that I know what I’m drinking, and not sugary drinks. The soda stream is a good for people who don’t drink soda all the time but want something every now and then without having to run to the store. Just be sure to refrigerate the flavors after opening them.

I didn't expect much going in, but based on all the high reviews, I was willing to give it a shot. It turned to be better than I thought. Although, you'll need to add artificial, I suggest EZ-Sweetz. The instructions kind of overestimate how much you really need. I was able to get great taste from only 1 cup on 32oz and 10 drops of EZ-Sweetz! It is pretty obvious that they are trying to imitate some top soda brands, and does a very good job. I don't know if this is cheaper than buying the real soda cans, so you'll have to do the math. It says only good for 2 weeks after opening, but it taste just as good even over a month since opening.

I like the flavor but the bottles keep breaking or leaking during shipment.

This is favorite. I try to always have this on hand.

Xtreme Energy is a great Red Bull dupe, but be very careful not to dump the syrup in the carbonated bottle all at once or you'll have a mess on your counter. Of all the flavors I've tried, this is the only one that has done this. The diet version does not (and is also very good).

I have lots of experience with SodaStream over the last few years so let me make this "leakage" issue as clear and to-the-point as I can to help new (potential) users to understand.These leak. Plain and simple. Look on any local store shelves that sells these and you will clearly see evidence of leakage... and a lot of it. This is NOT the seller's issue, however; ***it is due to poor product design with the bottles they are packaged in.*** I would be surprised if anyone received these with 0 leakage. Yes, sadly it is THAT common. Make sure you open it by the sink or have wet hand wipes available.With that now out of the way, they are also a disaster to try to pour from as it becomes very messy and not pour-friendly. Funnels and/or pumps are HIGHLY recommended! SodaStream really needs to get it in gear and design a new bottle that is leak-proof and pour-friendly! They all have the tendency to leak when they are put under any sort of pressure. That goes towards my 1-star rating. However, it is not the main reason I rated it 1 star. If this was the only issue I would rate it as 3 or 4 stars as you can rinse off the sticky goop easily under a faucet. No biggie other than slight loss of product.The main reason I am rating this as 1 star is because I purchased a variety pack, and I received 4 syrups that are the same exact flavor (cola). Or at least, I believed I did. It is not clearly marked exactly what you get other than the provided photo and the fact that the title stated "VARIETY" on it with a photo of 4 different bottles. I "could" send them back but the hassle of it is just not worth it. I will use them... ALL of them... so might as well keep them. But they need to send what we actually pay for and be far more straightforward with their descriptions and wording. I'm sorry, but if it clearly states "variety pack" in the title, as well as shows a photo of 4 different flavors, that is what I want! That is the main reason for my 1-star rating.For the flavors, I am sort of a soda-holic and I know my flavors pretty well. I am also sort of picky. Here's my opinion on the flavors:Cola - 5 stars. It is no Coca-Cola but it is REALLY good and comparable, better than most generics, and can be mixed with Torani syrups to make some truly amazing soda flavor combos. Keep in mind that you will be sacrificing "some" flavor for slightly healthier sodas, so the very slight flavor difference is well worth it to me and they are very good.Dr. Pete - 2 stars. It's OK but sort of a funky taste. Certainly not my favorite. Dr. Pepper is good but not my favorite either so that might be partly the reasoning.Lemon Lime - 4 stars. Basically the same opinion as Cola. Really good, but can get tiring after a few drinks.Fountain Mist - 5 stars! One if my favorites! It is their take on Mountain Dew.Root Beer - 3 stars. Kinda the same opinion as the Dr. Pete. Strange taste but not bad either. Might take some getting used to.Orange - 5 stars! Probably one of the best flavors they have created as far as how it tastes and compares to normal soda brands.Cherry Cola - 3 stars. It's ok, but not great and honestly is far better to just buy a bottle of cherry Torani syrup and add to the regular Cola flavor. Tastes far better and you can then perfect the quantities to your liking. Also consider vanilla Torani flavoring to make cherry-vanilla Cola! Yummmm!Be sure what you are ordering is a variety pack if that's what you want. Reach out the the seller FIRST before buying it if in any doubt. Otherwise you can end up like me... sticky Cola catastrophe! Good luck and I hope this helps at least someone!

I purchased few times and it's less expensive then the Cola w/Suclarose, but I'm swapping back to Suclarose because it's 8 g sugar while this Cola's 15g sugar and added 15g sugar. That's a load of sugar for sure. Yes, you can use less and make a flat out tasting see through liquid by the time it's over with litre for less sugar but why the ... are they putting "added surgar" in just about everything? Are people demanding it? Oh is the question silly to ask do we need added sugar? But like everything else, someone thinks we do or will get it huh. Just a little keyed up when ya think you're doing good to escape HFCS...
