Customer Favourites: From SodaStream Syrups to Slush Flavours

Some flavours become favourites for a reason.

Cream Soda, Cola, Bubblegum and Cherry Cola are popular choices across the Florida Syrups SodaStream-compatible range, so it made sense to bring those same familiar flavour profiles into our home slush range too.

The idea is simple: keep the flavour people already know and enjoy, then adapt the formulation so it works properly as a frozen slush drink.

Which SodaStream Flavours Are Also Available as Slush?

Several customer favourites are available in both our SodaStream-compatible syrup range and our slush range.

These include:

• Cream Soda
• Cola
• Bubblegum
• Cherry Cola

Each one appeals to a different taste, but all four work well as both fizzy drinks and frozen slush.

Cream Soda: Smooth and Familiar

Cream Soda has a smooth, vanilla-led profile that works well as a traditional fizzy drink.

That same flavour also translates naturally into a frozen slush.

The slush version keeps the familiar Cream Soda character while being formulated specifically for frozen use.

If you already enjoy Cream Soda through a SodaStream, the slush version gives you a different way to enjoy the same flavour profile.

Cola: A Classic That Works Frozen Too

Cola is one of the most familiar soft drink flavours, so it works naturally in both fizzy and frozen formats.

As a SodaStream-compatible syrup, it gives you a classic cola-style drink.

As a slush flavour, that familiar profile is adapted for freezing, creating a frozen version of a traditional soft drink.

It is a good choice if you want a slush flavour that feels familiar rather than novelty-led.

Bubblegum: From Fizzy Favourite to Classic Slush

Bubblegum works particularly well across both formats.

As a fizzy drink, it gives you a sweet, nostalgic flavour.

As a slush, it feels even more familiar because Bubblegum is already strongly associated with classic frozen drinks.

That makes it a natural choice for people who already enjoy Bubblegum in the SodaStream range and want the same flavour in a Ninja Slushi or other home slush machine.

Cherry Cola: Two Familiar Flavours in One

Cherry Cola combines the familiar taste of cola with a stronger cherry note.

It works well in both fizzy and frozen formats because the flavour profile already suits cold drinks.

If you already enjoy Cherry Cola as a SodaStream-compatible syrup, the slush version keeps that same overall flavour direction while adapting the formulation for frozen use.

Are the SodaStream and Slush Versions the Same?

They are very similar in flavour, but they are not exactly the same product.

The flavour profile stays close to the SodaStream version, while the slush version is formulated specifically for a frozen drink system.

So the aim is not to reinvent the flavour.

Instead, it is to take a customer favourite and adapt it for a different type of drink.

Why Do Slush Flavours Need a Different Formulation?

A fizzy drink and a frozen slush behave differently.

A SodaStream-compatible syrup is designed to be mixed with carbonated water.

A slush product needs to work with the freezing process inside a home slush machine.

That is why our slush range uses a Core Mix and separate Flavour Shot system.

The Flavour Shot provides the flavour, while the Core Mix provides the sugar needed to help the mixture freeze into slush.

Do Florida Syrups Flavour Shots Contain Sugar?

No.

Florida Syrups flavour syrups and Flavour Shots do not contain sugar.

In the home slush system, the sugar is contained in the Core Mix, not in the flavour syrup itself.

The two parts therefore perform different jobs.

The Flavour Shot provides the taste, while the Core Mix provides the sugar needed for the freezing process.

From Fizzy Drinks to Frozen Drinks

Having the same flavour available in different formats means you can choose the type of drink you want without changing the flavour you already enjoy.

For example:

• Cream Soda can be served fizzy or frozen
• Cola can become a frozen cola slush
• Bubblegum can move from a fizzy drink to a classic-style slush
• Cherry Cola can be enjoyed in either format

So, if you already have a favourite in the Florida Syrups SodaStream-compatible range, there may be a slush version with a very similar flavour profile.

Can You Mix These Slush Flavours Together?

Yes.

Once you know how each flavour tastes on its own, you can also combine them.

Some combinations worth trying include:

• Cola + Cherry Cola for a stronger cherry-cola flavour
• Cream Soda + Cherry Cola for a smoother vanilla-and-cherry combination
• Bubblegum + Cream Soda for a sweeter, nostalgic mix

If your normal batch uses 100ml of Flavour Shot, split that amount between the two flavours rather than doubling it.

For example:

• 50ml Cream Soda
• 50ml Cherry Cola

That keeps the total flavour quantity at 100ml.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Florida Syrups SodaStream flavours are also available as slush?

Popular crossover flavours include Cream Soda, Cola, Bubblegum and Cherry Cola.

Do the slush versions taste the same as the SodaStream versions?

They are designed to keep the same general flavour profile, but the slush versions are formulated specifically for frozen drinks.

Do Florida Syrups Flavour Shots contain sugar?

No. The flavour syrups do not contain sugar. In the home slush system, the sugar is contained in the Core Mix.

Why is a separate Core Mix needed?

The Core Mix provides the sugar needed for the freezing process, while the Flavour Shot provides the flavour.

Can I use a SodaStream syrup directly as a slush flavour?

For the best results, use the product designed for the type of drink you are making. SodaStream-compatible syrups are intended for fizzy drinks, while the slush range is formulated for frozen drinks.

Your Favourite Flavour, Just Frozen

You do not always need to discover a completely new flavour when you buy a slush machine.

If you already enjoy Cream Soda, Cola, Bubblegum or Cherry Cola as a fizzy drink, you can enjoy a very similar flavour profile in frozen form.

That is exactly why these customer favourites made the move from the Florida Syrups SodaStream-compatible range into our home slush range.
