Quick answer
Use the SodaStream Mixology Kit to craft sparkling cocktails at home by following the included recipe book, measuring with the dosing jigger, muddling fresh ingredients, and serving over the stainless steel ice spheres.
Why the Mixology Kit Works for Homemade Cocktails
The kit bundles professional-grade bar tools with a dedicated recipe book, so you don't need to guess measurements or buy separate equipment. The double-sided jigger lets you measure both standard and cocktail-specific amounts, while the muddler and shaker handle the mixing steps that a basic soda maker alone cannot do.
How to Make Sparkling Cocktails with the Mixology Kit
- Carbonate your base liquid: Fill a SodaStream bottle with cold water (or a non-sugary base) and carbonate it using your sparkling water maker. Do not carbonate sugary syrups or juices directly—they can clog the machine. Always carbonate plain liquid first, then add flavors afterward.
- Measure ingredients with the dosing jigger: Use the double-sided jigger to measure spirits, syrups, and juices exactly as the recipe book specifies. The smaller side typically holds 1 ounce, the larger side 1.5 ounces. Overpouring throws off the balance; use the jigger for every ingredient.
- Muddle fresh herbs or fruit: Place herbs (mint, basil) or soft fruit in the shaker or a glass and press gently with the muddler to release oils and juices. Do not crush aggressively—bitter compounds can leach out. Press just 3–4 times; over-muddling makes drinks bitter.
- Shake or stir the mixture: Combine measured liquids, muddled ingredients, and ice in the cocktail shaker. Shake vigorously for 10–15 seconds for drinks with juice or syrup; stir for spirit-only cocktails to avoid dilution. Shaking aerates the drink; stirring keeps it clear and silky.
- Strain and pour over ice spheres: Strain the mixture into a glass, then add one or both stainless steel ice spheres. They chill the drink without melting and diluting it like regular ice cubes. The spheres stay cold longer than ice cubes and won't water down your cocktail.
- Top with sparkling water and garnish: Pour your freshly carbonated water into the glass, leaving room for a final stir. Garnish with a citrus wheel, herb sprig, or edible flower as shown in the recipe book. Add sparkling water last to preserve maximum fizz.
