The idea behind SodaStream and their machines is to make carbonated water, which in turn makes it less “boring” to drink and can also allow home users to whip up different types of soda flavors by adding a bit of flavored syrup to the carbonated water. It’s also a lot easier than having to continuously buy soda water/tonic.However if there was one limitation it was the fact that the SodaStreams could only carbonate water, but the company has decided to change that with the launch of the SodaStream MIX. This device is expected to debut at the Milan Salone del Mobile next week and is apparently capable of carbonating just about any liquid, or so the company claims.
The unit is also designed by famed Swiss designer Yves Behar so if you’re particular about your home appliances having a particular look, perhaps this could be it. It will feature Bluetooth connectivity and will work with an accompanying app for your smartphone. The company is boasting its ability to “carbonate any and all liquids, from pure fruit juices to alcoholic beverages.”
So if you’ve always been curious as to what it might be like to carbonate drinks that aren’t typically carbonated, such as tea or even coffee, then we reckon you’ll want to keep an eye out for it. No word on pricing or availability, but considering it is being marketed towards “sophisticated” home users, chances are it won’t come cheap.
