How to Make an Energy Drink with SodaStream Xtreme Mix

Quick Answer

Carbonate cold water in your SodaStream, then stir in 1 tablespoon of SodaStream Xtreme Energy Drink Mix per 8 ounces of sparkling water for a fizzy, caffeinated energy drink.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Chill Your Water: Fill your SodaStream carbonating bottle with cold tap or filtered water. Cold water carbonates more efficiently and reduces foaming. Warm water will fizz less and may overflow when you add the mix.
2. Carbonate the Water: Attach the bottle to your SodaStream machine and carbonate according to your model’s instructions. For most machines, press the carbonation button 3–5 times or until you hear the desired fizz level. Over-carbonating can cause the bottle to spray when you open it.
3. Add the Xtreme Energy Mix: Remove the bottle from the machine and unscrew the cap. Add 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of SodaStream Xtreme Energy Drink Mix per 8 ounces (240 ml) of sparkling water. Stir gently with a long spoon. Stirring too vigorously will release carbonation and make the drink flat.
4. Taste and Adjust: Taste your drink. If you prefer a stronger flavor or more caffeine, add another splash of mix. If it’s too sweet, add a little more plain sparkling water. The mix is concentrated; start with less and add more to avoid an overly sweet or syrupy drink.
5. Serve Immediately: Pour the finished energy drink over ice or drink it straight from the bottle. For best fizz, consume within 15 minutes of carbonating. Storing the drink in the fridge will cause it to lose carbonation over time.
