Testimonials
"Thank you Syfo Original. I discovered you on a hot, humid August in Georgia. I have been hooked since. The glass bottle is the key for, it seems to hold the carbonation."
The calendar may say it’s still spring, but the sizzling summer heat is already upon us and one way to stay cool is with a refreshing summer cocktail. Recipes with sparkling water have a distinct advantage too, because they give you a little hydration to beat the heat. Here are a few of our favorites:
WHITE WINE-BERRY SANGRIA
INGREDIENTS
- 1 Bottle of Dry White Wine
- 1 cup Syfo Lemon-Lime Sparkling Water
- 1/2 cup Raspberry Vodka
- 1/4 cup Brandy
- Honey (optional)
- Chopped Fresh Strawberries
- Fresh Raspberries
- Fresh Blueberries
- Ice
PREPARATION
In a pitcher, combine wine, Syfo, vodka and brandy. Add warm honey to add sweetness if desired. Toss a few raspberries and a small handful of chopped strawberries into the bottom of each glass and muddle the fruit. Fill the glass with ice, then with sangria. Add a few blueberries and stir.

Watermelon Peach Spritzer
INGREDIENTS
- 2 liters of Syfo Lemon-Lime Naturally Flavored Sparkling Water
- Frozen sliced peaches
- Watermelon, cubed
- Ice cubes
PREPARATION
Put about 5 frozen peach slices in the bottom of each glass. Also add about 5 pieces of cubed watermelon to each glass as well. The amount of fruit you can add will depend on your glass size. I found about 5 peach slices and 5 watermelon cubes worked well for my glass sizes.
To each glass also add 2 ice cubes. Then fill up each glass with the lemon-lime sparkling water. Stir each glass to mix the fruit throughout the drink. If desired, place a piece of watermelon on the rim of each glass.

The first drink James Bond ordered in the novel Casino Royale, the first in the series. Recipe adapted from The Robb Report.
INGREDIENTS
- 1.5 oz. Campari
- 1.5 oz. sweet vermouth
- 4 ounce of Syfo Original Seltzer
- Ice
PREPARATION
Combine Campari and sweet vermouth in a tall glass over rocks. Top with Syfo Original Seltzer, stir to combine and garnish with an orange peel.
Watermelon Mojito
Here’s a delicious summertime treat from a WebMD feature on low-calorie cocktails.
This is a refreshing take on the Cuban mojito that’s light on the calories. Instead of using sugar, use a wooden pestle or a big spoon to gently crush cubes of watermelon with fresh mint leaves. Add rum and Syfo Original Seltzer or your favorite flavor of Syfo Naturally-Flavored Sparkling Waters for a sweet mojito. At 100 calories, it has half the calories of a usual mojito.
Ranch Water
Ranch Water is basically a highball made with tequila. Place 2 shots of tequila in a glass (3 ounces).Mix in the juice of 1 lime (that’s about 1 ½ ounces). Fill the glass with ice and top it off with Syfo Original Seltzer (about ½ cup). Recipe adapted from a couple cooks.

Mothers are becoming increasingly concerned about the negative health effects that sugary sodas have on their children and Syfo can be a great alternative. Just mix any Syfo flavor with a juice and you have a winner that’s sure to please the entire family. Or if you’re trying to finally rid your refrigerator of soft drinks by weaning your family off of sugary drinks, try a mix of half soda and half Syfo. Less sugar means better health.

Everyone at Syfo Beverages would like to pay tribute to mothers everywhere this Mother’s Day. In this day and age, when it’s so difficult to make healthy diet and beverages choices, mothers do such a great job in providing for and nurturing their families. And Syfo is glad to be there to help.Every so often Web discussions and articles appear on the health benefits and effects of sparkling water. And the results are always the same, sparkling water is as healthy as ever! One of the latest trending topics is effect of sparkling water on digestive health. According to this article on Healthline.com, sparkling water has many digestive health benefits:
Improves swallowing ability
Studies suggest that sparkling water may improve swallowing ability. In one study, 16 healthy people were asked to repeatedly swallow different liquids. Carbonated water showed the strongest ability to stimulate the nerves responsible for swallowing.
Can make you feel fuller
Carbonated water can make you feel fuller after meals when compared with plain water and help you lose weight (read our customer testimonials of weight loss). According to HealthLine, in a controlled study in 19 healthy young women, fullness scores were higher after the participants drank 8 ounces of sparkling water, compared to when they drank still water.
May help relieve constipation
People who experience constipation may find that drinking sparkling water helps relieve their symptoms. In a two-week study in 40 older individuals who had experienced a stroke, average bowel movement frequency nearly doubled in the group that drank carbonated water, compared with the group that drank tap water. What’s more, participants reported a 58% decrease in constipation symptoms.
Helps to relieve stomach pain
There’s also evidence that sparkling water may improve other symptoms of indigestion, including stomach pain. The Healthline.com article references a controlled study that examined 21 people with chronic digestive issues. After 15 days, those who drank carbonated water experienced significant improvements in digestive symptoms, constipation, and gallbladder emptying.
So there you have it. There is one other issue that has been the subject of online discussions of late, and that is whether carbonated water can aggravate IBS (Inflammatory Bowel Syndrome). HealthLine says that sparkling water doesn’t cause IBS, but if you have IBS and are sensitive to carbonated beverages, it may be best to remove them from your diet.
