Syrup Concentrate - 70+ Flavors (4 oz bottle)

Cola flavor is great. Better than SodaStream. I use 1oz to 20oz water and 2.5cups sugar in a mason jar. Shake then place in fridge. The cold syrup does not foam when poured slowly. I use 6oz to the SodaStream 1L bottle.

I purchased the Rio Cherry cola concentrate and used some directions I found online to make a diet cola syrup for my SodaStream. The recipe online (Tom's Stevia Diet Coke Syrup) which called for Stevia as the sweeter and was fairly good, but I don't prefer Stevia. With the second bottle I modified the recipe to use liquid sweet & Low and liked it much better. The Recipe I used was 12oz Liquid Sweet and Low, 1oz Agave Syrup, 4oz Syrup Concentrate, and then fill with water to make 32 total oz. I mix 1.5 oz in a 1 liter SodaStream bottle and it taste great.

TLDNR: I like this product line and will re-order many of the flavors that I have tried. DETAILED REVIEW: I liked this stuff enough to justify taking the time to write a very detailed review, in hopes that it will help others make some decisions about the product. Lots of folks seem to be complaining about the cost of shipping. Yes, the shipping is steep on a "per item" basis, if you make a tiny order. The solution is simple. Don't buy a tiny order. The shipping is reasonable if you buy a reasonable quantity of the concentrates. Plus, the per-unit purchase-price of the concentrates decreases with the quantity that you order. I brew my own beer (both all-grain and partial mash), so I thought it would be a bit of fun to make soft drinks using my beer carbonation system. My plan was to find the favorite flavors of my daughters (7yo and 9yo) and eventually keep two fully-mixed kegs in the keezer for them. I was thinking that I would find a single favorite that I would keep on tap at all times and a handful of close-second flavors that I would alternate for them. (As much as I love my girls, I really hate losing two of my beer taps!) I ordered a twelve-bottle assortment of the concentrates, and I prepared a batch of syrup for each flavor, using Splenda as a sweetner. (I buy only diet soft drinks for my girls and myself.) Overall, I was VERY pleased with my purchase, and I will make several more orders of similar size in order to identify the flavors that are most-popular with my girls. I will not be re-ordering everything that I tried, but I think that would be the expected result. The question is whether I like the product line, and the answer to that question is a definite "yes." Thus, the remaining task is to identify the flavors that WILL be on the "re-order" list. Because of character limits, I will review each concentrate in a separate review.

AMARETTO. One word ... ambrosia. It was easily my favorite of the flavors in my initial order ... but then again, the real Amaretto is my favorite liqueur. If it weren't so full of sugar and empty calories, I would drink it all the time. At a minimum, I will keep a bottle of the Amaretto syrup mixed in the fridge at all times. In fact, I will probably keep a quart or two of the final product mixed in the fridge, if it doesn't win the contest for a spot in one of the 5-gallon kegs in the keezer. My girls loved it as well, so this may get the coveted permanent tap in the keezer. CANTALOUPE. This one was almost as good as the Amaretto, but (again) cataloupe is one of my favorite fruits. The girls liked this one a lot. At a minimum, I will keep syrup prepared and on-hand, though I will probably not keep a mixed-bottle of the final product in the fridge all the time ... but only because space in those door racks is always an issue. It will probably be one of three or four flavors with a rotating spot in the "mixed bottle in the fridge" category. CHOCOLATE MALTED. I am on the fence on this one. I love chocolate, but I had never had a chocolate soft drink before, so I bought the concentrate on a whim. It is pretty good, but there is a slight "off flavor." I will probably keep the concentrate on hand and mix a small batch of syrup when I am in the mood for it. Then again, my younger daughter REALLY liked it, so I may have to keep a bottle mixed in the fridge. COCONUT. I LOVE coconut, but I am leaning against this concentrate. It isn't actually "bad," but it has a slight "off flavor" that I cannot identify. Neither girl liked it, either. On the other hand, I thought that it was pretty good in a 50:50 mix of coconut syrup and vanilla syrup. The jury is still out on whether I will re-order this flavor. Depending upon what I like in the next order, the odds are probably against it. COLA. It is cola, but nothing special. Candidly, it is just too easy to buy a case of Coke Zero to justify the effort of mixing and storing the syrup. This is definitely on the "do not re-order" list.

CREAM SODA. Cream soda is one of my favorit soft drinks. For several years, I have kept both the A&W and Shasta diet cream soda in the pantry. (The two products have very distinct tastes, but both are quite good.) This extract is not remotely as good as either of them. It has a red color, some sort of red fruit flavor, and not enough vanilla flavor. You can remedy that last deficiency with a shot of the vanilla syrup, but it is still not as good as either of the commercial variants. I will not re-order this extract. GREEN APPLE. Very, very good. The concentrate for this one will definitely be on the "keeper" list, not least because Granny Smith apples are the favorite fruit of my older daughter. I will probably keep the drink mixed for her all the time, or at least a bottle of syrup. But I don't see this one making the final cut for the keezer tap, just because the younger daughter loathes green apple. KIWI. Excellent, but (again) kiwi has always been one of my favorite fruits. (Are we seeing a pattern here?) The girls like the kiwi soft drink, too. The flavor is pretty darned accurate, and I will definitely keep the syrup mixed and on-hand. I will PROBABLY keep a quart or two of the final product in the fridge (because I like kiwi so much), if it does not earn a spot on-tap. ORANGE DREAM. I expected this one to taste like an orange-dreamsicle ice-cream dessert, and I was somewhat disappointed. While the drink was quite good, it was a bit short on the "cream" part of the "dreamsicle" flavor. On the other hand, the flavor is both closer to the ice-cream and "better" when you mix it with an extra shot of the vanilla syrup. VANILLA. This one has quite a good vanilla flavor on its own, but it is best when mixed with other flavors. I will keep the syrup in the fridge at all time, for purposes of mixing with other flavors. WATERMELON. The flavor is not a terribly-accurate version of the fruit, but it IS quite good. I will keep syrup on hand most of the time, especially during the summer.

I tried the root beer, Dr Rio and the cola. The root beer reminds me of Dads root beer, very good! The Dr Rio is very close to Dr Pepper, I really like it! The cola is a really good cola! I will be buying more.

My wife is a ginger ale extreme drinker. She can only drink diet ginger ale as she is a diabetic. We mixed the concentrate as directed using Truvia sugar substitute and she loves the soda we make with the syrup. Great Product!!!

I recently tried a 6 pack of the 4 oz flavors. They were all true to flavor. I am known locally for my cheesecakes and developed a way to incorporate these flavorings into making a unique and delicious product. During this heat spell, I have been making ice pops with these flavors. The lime and tangerine seem to be favorites. I have sweetened my flavorings with Stevia since I am low carb. This has worked very well. I have used the cranberry flavor in my protein drinks with a handful of fresh cranberries besides. It is excellent. I will be ordering again from Prairie Moon very soon. The next time will be quart bottles. I am very happy that I found this company to order from.

I am also a disappointed SodaStream owner. I feel lucky to have found Prairie Moon! I have used Cola, root beer, pomegranate, cream soda, orange dream, and vanilla so far. Our favorite has been orange dream and vanilla. They are all delicious. The pomegranate is a little sour but my husband loved it too. The cream soda is like Big Red soda and is also very good. When I find one I don't like, I'll write another review but until then we will continue to try new flavors!

The flavors I ordered are amazing. Will continue to order again and again. Favorite in the house is Pina Colada and I love the Cola. Other favs include Tropical Punch and Banana. No chemical aftertaste, just pure flavor. Lets me completely replicate my market chain frozen drinks. They taste identical.

Tried the ginger ale, love the results. Hope to try others in the future.

felt the strawberry has good flavor but a little tart. The lemon drop we didn't care for the some off-taste, but preferred the regular lemon. The orange was fantastic. Kids like the tiger blood and the blue rasberry is great. Id give an overall rating of 4 stars, with the orange, strawberry and blue rasberry 5 stars,

This is my second order of "Rio" Cola flavor concentrate from Prarie Moon. I mix slightly stronger than recommended at 2 oz per 1.5 quarts of water. This makes the best Cola flavor I have found. I even purchased BiB's of both Coke and Pepsi, till their prices went sky-hi. I tried the gallon jugs of ready-mixed syrup from another supplier, but found the flavor lacking. Formerly Used Soda-Stream, untill they got too greedy and srunk the size while upping their prices.What a rip-off!

When I saw the review called "Mountain Dew Recipe" by Trisha from Nebraska, I decided to take the plunge and order everything on her recipe. Now that SodaStream no longer makes Fountain Mist, I'm on my own. Anyway, Trisha's recipe is fantastic! However, she says that it makes half a gallon of syrup. It does not. It makes only just over a quart. So you need to add more water than the 4 3/4 cups she suggests and also increase the other measurements to compensate. But it completely works! I have a glass with about 75% soda made from this recipe, topped with a bit of real Mountain Dew and a bit of Sprite to make it just like I like. Thank you Prairie Moon and Trisha!

This is the first time I have tried Chocolate Cola. This product has a very strong chocolate flavor along with the fizziness of cola. I am looking forward to trying the Cream soda flavor next. I would highly recommend these products to anyone else.

Absolutely spot on cola taste! I was so surprised--after trying so many others. This one just hit it right. I will order again and again. Can't wait to try other flavors. Yaaaaaaaaa for cola! I used the recipe for the syrup and added that to my soda stream. I like it a bit sweeter so I did add just a little extra stevia, but wow, what a great tasting cola. Just love it.

We tried snow cones for the first time at our family reunion. We had Lime, Lemon, Cherry, Grape, Raspberry, Root Beer, and Orange using the RIO flavor concentrated. They were a great hit. I've used the RIO flavors for years to make popsicles and found them to be the best so I wasn't surprised that the snow cones were a hit.

Dr Rio - I liked it. Had a pleasant taste that I kept returning too. Cola - So far, one of the best cola flavors I've tasted. It reminds me of Coke and Pepsi, but I cannot tell which one it tastes more like. Strawberry - It's okay. The flavor is a little weak for my tastes - but that seems to be a continual problem with me strawberry flavored drinks. Overall - their service was great and I had no problems.

Easy to mix. The flavor has not enough ginger ale flavor. When adding more syrup it increases the sweetness not the ginger ale flavor. I mixed the concentrate with water and sugar by weight according to the directions. My next batch I will use less sugar to the concentrate and maybe it will strengthen the flavor.

I bought a 12 pack assorted flavours for making sugar free syrups for my SodaStream. I have been looking for Barqs Red Cream Soda overtime I visit the US for years with no luck, and Soda Stream's Cream Soda was so bad I poured it down the drain. PrarieMoon's Cram Soda is exactly what I was looking for! A sweet red, almost (but not quite) fruity, creamy flavour. I would compare it to Barq's cram soda.

The Mountain Dew is not even close to actual Mountain Dew nor the Soda Stream version :( I mixed it per the instructions and it was not drinkable. I then added more sugar and more concentrate just to see if maybe I could get this to the point I would drink it. NOPE. I am a die hard DEW fan and I was really hoping this would be my replacement for Soda Stream but unfortunately it fell very, very short. If you guys ever want to get this mix correct I'd be the perfect product tester!!! I would actually suggest removing this one from your flavors until you get it right.

Excellent and cost effective way to make sugar free cola. I especially enjoy the ability to have a drink that isn't overly sweet or over flavored. Mimics the taste of one of the top zero sugar brands. Great job.

My 3-pack of cola flavoring arrived by mail quickly. I have mixed my first quart with powdered stevia extract (a bagged mix developed with 1/1 measurement to sugar). It's not Diet Coke, but it tastes good enough to continue using at this mixture.

RIO Cola has a good cola flavor - better than 2 competitors I tried - but still tastes a little flat. (I use it with Stevia; sugar may not have this problem.) Extra carbonation in the water I mix with it helps. It tastes best with rum, but that only works for me in the evening. I am still experimenting to get a zestier cola flavor.

This is great so far. I have been trying different artificial sweeteners to get the taste just right.

We've tried two 12-pack assortments so far and in general have been quite happy with them. The best of the lot so far, ones we will definitely be buying more of: Pomegranate Tangerine Sarsaparilla Ruby red grapefruit These ones are good, but none of them seem like they're going to be a staple: Cream soda Black licorice Hazelnut (nice when mixed with vanilla) Amaretto Orange dream OK, but only once in a while: Blue raspberry Cotton candy Grape Strawberry These ones probably aren't going to be on another order: Lemon drop (even my wife who loves lemon can't stand it) Margarita Ginger ale (I absolutely love ginger ale and ginger beer, but so far I haven't been able to make this one work) I still have flavors from my last order that I haven't even tried yet, and there are many more I want to try. I'm going to keep buying more varieties as I run low.

I love all of your guys products. I've been using you for years. I've used these concentrates and everything from commercial edibles, to ice creams. You can't go wrong with any of your flavors and the concentration level is perfect

This syrup is so good, reminds me of a cola I had whwn I was young and is very tasty I like that I can control the amount of sugar or use a sweetner.

Exactly what I was looking for and a great cole flaveor

Not too bad of a flavor. Very basic flavor but its drinkable.
