What Kind of Sparkling Water Machine Can I Use?
Just about any sparkling water machine will do the trick for this recipe! However, we recommend using a machine with a removable carbonating head. Here's why: A removable carbonating head allows for easy cleaning and prevents any build-up of flavor residues, ensuring your cucumber mint soda tastes as crisp and refreshing as it should. If your machine does not have a removable carbonating head, not to worry - it can still be used! Just bear in mind you might need to do a little extra cleaning to keep your flavors pure and your machine in good function. Regardless of the type, remember to follow your manufacturer's instructions for safe and effective use.
