Coca Cola Classic Soda Syrup Concentrate 2.5 Gallon Bag in Box BIB Soda Syrup Concentrate

Fantastic product and perfect for use with a soda stream. This was packaged really well and the syrup is brand new with a long life span so no need to worry about close expiration dates. Taste is amazing and I’ve found a pretty good ration with my soda steam. Great value and highly recommended

I have ordered Coke syrup several times, and it is always a month or 2 until the expiration date. There is no way that I could drink it within that time frame and it made no difference in taste. I make sure that no air gets in the bag. It would be exposure to oxygen that makes the taste go bad and the sugar concentration is too high for bacterial growth. I have actually gone a year past expiration and it made no difference. I make my sodas a little stronger than store bought and they taste great. Making sodas at home beats running to the store, I also freeze ice in long cubes to chill the water. Cold water holds the carbonation better. I have not worked out the cost, but it would probably be cheaper to get 2 liter bottles. Still worth it though.

So these boxes typically have an expiration of 6-9 months. The one I was sent expires at 7 weeks from the date of purchase 6.10.24 . Very disappointed. Bad value for money.

Used with my Soda Stream, now no other Coke comes close, even McDonald's is a disappointment. I use 4 oz in my personal sized bottle and it's perfect. Had no issues with spoilage, or leakage.

So roughly 30 gallons which is 113 1 liters. Have 2 liters a day and this will last you 56 days. I’m currently on day 58 so this means my filling the soda stream bottle to the line, carbonating for a hold of one time til the second LED turns on, then adding syrup til the bottom of the bottle neck is making this last a little longer than the math given. 2 liters at the local grocer is approx 2 dollars right now but may vary. So 113 bucks for 56 2 liters. This is what I am comparing the purchase to. Now soda stream requires C02 tanks also. Which I can get tanks for about 15 bucks each(doing exchange program) and I believe I went through 3 tanks in these two months. I’m now at 72 for original purchase plus 45 for co2. I’m now at a loss for 117 dollars to make my own soda. Now to also add more loss as I go get filtered water at local circle Ks and use it for the soda at 1.25 per 5 gallon… I stopped estimating the total cost here. I won’t be a returning customer as it is just cheaper to get 2 liters and not be confined to always drink the same soda. However if the 2.5 gallon of syrup were to drop I may be convinced to get more. As for flavor, I ran the soda I made versus a 2 liter (someone brought a 2 liter to a party at my house and I challenged the group to a flavor battle) and 5 different people could not tell the difference and pointed to my mix as the correct one that came out of the 2 liter. So flavor was a good score. Hope my ramblings help someone else decide a purchase
