If you’re a regular reader of these here ramblings, you’ll know from this post that we have a sodastream which I LOVE TO DEATH. Seriously. My kids love fizzy drinks and I’m wary of most of it because their teeth are so beautiful and I’d like to preserve that, but knowing that the Sodastream concentrate is significantly lower in sugar is enough to let them have their own way a little. Plus, it works out so much cheaper to make up fizzy drinks like this that I can’t begrudge it really and that’s before we touch on the green aspect of reduced waste!

So – Sodastream sent me a wee email the other day that I thought would interest you guys on two fronts. FIRST OFF, they have some supercool ideas for Hallowe’en – The expert fizzologists at Sodastream have created four Hallowe’en Mocktails for your delectation, all of which would work brilliantly at a spooky Hallowe’en party!

Vampire Broth
3 parts SodaStream diet cola, 1 part vanilla ice cream. Mix SodaStream cola with the vanilla ice cream and watch it go all frothy.

Pumpkin Juice
2 parts SodaStream sugar free orange, 1 part SodaStream sugar free lemonade and small pumpkin slices. Mix SodaStream orange with SodaStream lemonade and add the pumpkin pieces.

Witches Brew
2 parts SodaStream sugar free orange, 1 part SodaStream ginger ale, 1 part orange juice and 1 part pineapple juice. Mix all the ingredients together in a jug to make your witches brew!

Magic Potion
2 parts SodaStream clear cranberry & raspberry, 2 parts SodaStream apple and 1 part fresh raspberries. Crush up the raspberries and mix into the SodaStream apple then add cranberry and raspberry.

I know my goblins will be partial to a Vampire Broth or two and I definately fancy turning the Witches Brew into a real cocktail with a sneaky shot of vodka. Wahey!

SECONDLY the kind folks from Sodastream have also generously offered a Sodastream machine with two bottles of juice concentrate for one lucky winner. Isn’t that nice? To enter, I’d like you to leave a comment before Sunday 24th October 2010 telling me what you like best about Hallowe’en. A winner will be selected using the random integer generator and your prize will be sent out in time for your Hallowe’en shenanigans.

Thanks for reading!
