If you enjoy brewing your own coffee and also like soda, then Soda-Club USA Penguin, Cherry Hill, N.J., has you covered. Its on-demand gourmet soda machine will brew a liter in about 30 seconds and includes a choice of 25 flavors, from classic Cola to Fizzy Blue; diet sodas are sweetened with Splenda. It also will brew teas, juices, and energy drinks. Soda-Club carbonated beverages make a healthier alternative to store bought brands, are better for the environment, and are more economical. Since it doesn't need electricity, these devices also are great for boats and RVs where cooler and refrigerator space is limited.

And getting started is so easy. Open the Penguin and fill the glass carafe with cold drinking water. Place the carafe in the stainless steel flask. Pull the horn downward until it snaps tightly with the flask. Then turn the flask to the left. Push the carbonating lever downward several times in order to carbonate the water. Press the pressure release button and remove the carafe. Voila! Making your own soda at home--you gotta love it.

The Soda-Club Penguin comes in small ($89.99), medium ($139.99), and large ($249.99). To learn more about this innovative product, go to www.sodaclub.com or call 1-800-SODACLUB.
