The Ninja Thirsti is a sleek machine that comes in black and grey and can make a beverage up to six liters at a time. You have the ability to personalize your drink flavors and the amount of carbonation in them (with three levels of fizziness), you can combine flavors in the machine to make up your own, plus dial up or down the level of flavor intensity. There are over 25 flavor packs (all 0 calories with 0 sugar) sold separately, which results in hundreds of unique combinations to create.

There are four different size settings (6, 12, 18 and 24 ounces), and the Thirsti will dispense these amounts into any cup or bottle you choose. You’re not limited to a proprietary bottle to dispense your drinks, and the fold out tray at the bottom will help keep your counter clean. It does include one 60-liter Ninja Thristi carbonation canister with the machine, and each canister can make up to 100 12-ounce drinks. And it’s easy to stock up on more Thirsti canisters to keep the fizz flowing.

The Thirsti is an “Amazon Choice” soda maker, with one customer saying, “I switched from Soda Stream, and this is easier, cooler, sleeker, better bubbles AND gives the option for flavor. Love it!” Another customer says, “Overall, this thing is easy to use, takes little counter space and can produce sports drinks, energy drinks, mixers, sodas and fruit drinks for home or on-the-go. It isn’t terribly expensive and is pretty fun to experiment with.”

So if you have a goal to save money by not buying cans of soda or want a way to control the amount of sugar in your drinks, it’s a good idea to invest in this beverage maker. The Ninja Thristi is a compact machine that gives endless variations of flavors and bubbles. Plus, you’ll save 28% on Amazon when you buy it now.
