Previously, the company also designed a smart SodaStream setup geared towards mixing a slew of cocktails and last year, it launched its Beer Bar that let users mix their own light beer. 

Sparkling Gold will only be available through Germany's SodaStream online store for a limited time.  In a statement, SodaStream CEO Daniel Birnbaum said, "Fun and exciting concentrates give more users the opportunity to enjoy and even indulge in festive beverages this holiday season... Cheers!" 

Update: A statement made by Sodastream regarding taste test results comparing Sparkling Gold to its competitors has been removed from this article, after a Sodastream representative informed Engadget that that claim had been "contested" and that Sodastream is withdrawing it.
