Its pretty easy to make your own soda. 1 tsp Sodium or Potassium bicarbonate, 1tsp citric acid OR ~3-4 tablespoons vinegar, flavoring (fruit juice or drink mix + sweetener to taste) and 2-4 cups of water in a bottle with 3-4 inches of room to prevent it from exploding before you cap it. Throw it in the fridge or use cold water.
Alternatively you can make fermented soda using yeast but this isnt something I normally do since I am purposefully using potassium bicarbonate as the bicarbonate source to pressurize the soda. (More potassium in my diet)
The main advantage of making soda yourself is you can make it any flavor you want. You arent really limited by what flavor of soda you can buy.
I guess that works. There’s also Soda-Stream( and other carbonation systems) that just directly injects CO2 into a bottle. Then you can add whatever flavourings you like. Personally, I like doing something like 50/50 heavily carbonated water and fruit juice of choice.
I recently learned that carbonic acid formed by co2 and water in soda ends up eroding enamel of the teeth. The more carbonated the drink the more severe the effects.
