I own a drinkmate, which is basically a soda maker but it’s specifically allowed to carbonate basically anything and boy have they sent emails letting people know carbonating milk is a bad fucking time. Zero stars. Please do not.

How do you like your drinkmate? I might be in the market for something like this.
I don’t particularly use it a ton, but it’s great for recarbonating sodas, or making sodas, or making fizzy alcoholic drinks without having to water them down with carbonated water since you can just carbonate the whole thing. It is essentially just a button to open the hose attached to the co2 tube. Cleaning the bottle topper nozzle thing isn’t bad. Sometimes you’ve gotta wait a while if you overfizz like pure juice (I find it’s better to add some water to help reduce that but if you want it to be full strength juice it’ll just take a while for fizz to go down so you can open the top without it going pop.)
Only downside I’ve run into is the glue on the small bottle I got (got large and small) came off probably cuz someone put it in the washing machine which they shouldn’t have. Still that’s just glue you can fix that, and even then it’s just cuz the bottle is round in the bottom so they glue something so it can stand when not in the machine.
Get drink mate. It's not Zionist (that I know) and you can (as the other poster notes) carbonate basically anything.
Shit rocks. I don't use it often but it's very nice to have and cheaper than buying 24 packs of lacroix (in the long run)
It's not Zionist (that I know)
That was the first thing I looked up lmao, been thinking about getting something like this for a while but the knowledge that Sodastream is zionist prevented me from pulling the trigger. Drinkmate seems to be based out of Michigan (though their OEM is a company in China), and searching up their CEO I found this guy who doesn't seem to have any articles written about his views on race mixing so I assume he's an average lib (which may-or-may-not mean he's zionist but again he doesn't seem to have said or done anything about it).
I saw that viral video
No matter how many times I see this it always makes me laugh
Thank you for laugh
The Coca Cola company tried to corner carbonated milk with Vio, stylized "V!O". Irrational and mercurial American consumers hated it. The Shin family Chaebol found success in the sector with "Lotte Milkis", eventually expanding into America.
I wonder if we can get the don't-eat-the-bugs guys to think George Soros wants to sap the energy from their bones with fizzy milk.
I hate the Antichrist
I can't tell what's real or not anymore
Second this
Milkis, my beloved! Don’t listen to those evil people calling you spoiled. I will always have a special place for you in my ~~heart~~ tummy.
