Dork with a Fork”- Sodastream

When I come across a new kitchen gadget that I find to be absolutely fabulous, I tend to geek out about the product just a bit.  I can’t quite help it…it’s the foodie in me.

While I used to refer to my new kitchen tools discoveries as finds from the “Kitchen Gadget Guru”, I decided that a more appropriate title for myself is the “Dork with a Fork.”  Periodically, I will gush to you about my latest kitchen gadget discoveries and tell you why they just might be a necessity in your kitchen.

Onto today’s “Dork with a Fork” discovery.

Sodastream is by far one of my favorite gadgets that I’ve stumbled upon in the past 2 years.  I used to spend a ton of money on buying cans and bottles of seltzer from the grocery store.  Not only was it breaking the bank, but since I bought it in such large quantities, it was also breaking my back…just a bit.

When I found Sodastream, I was incredibly excited that I could get my bubbly satisfaction within seconds.  If I was feeling a little creative, I could concoct a great lemonade or mojito and just add the freshly made club soda to my mix.  Voila!  A perfectly bubbly and refreshing drink within seconds.  Sodastream also comes with a variety of different flavorings ranging from cola flavors, diet colas, energy drinks and fruity flavorings.

Not only did I cut out the costs and “labor” of buying club soda from the store, but I was also cutting out the trash and recycling that I had been creating when I purchased store-bought seltzer.  The use of the reusable plastic bottles even led me to start carrying the bottle around instead of disposable water bottles.

Now that I’m done “geeking out” about one of my favorite gadget finds, go ahead and check out Sodastream and let me know what you think!
