How to Make Dragon Fruit Syrup

Can I Make Dragon Fruit Soda With Store Bought Sparkling Water?

Yes, however, we recommend using homemade sparkling water in order to get the most out of your dragon fruit syrup. Store-bought sparkling water typically has added sugar and other preservatives that can affect the flavor of your beverage. You can also control the desired level of carbonation with a machine at home. If you're anything like us, you also may want to consider the cost benefits of owning a machine over purchasing store-bought seltzer water. Refilling and exchanging your CO2 canisters used in the majority of soda machines is far more cost-effective in the long run and also more sustainable.
