Not sure whether to use carbonation drops or sugar?
Here is more information to help you choose:
Carbonation Drops:
Carbonation drops are simply balls of boiled hard sugar. They make carbonating bottles nice and easy as you can just pop them into a bottle without measuring. However, these are usually designed for 750ml bottles and other sized bottles will require you to cut them smaller which may present challenges. If so, you can use sugar instead.
Sugar:
As mentioned, you do not have to use carbonation drops, sugar is fine. And it can be just plain white sugar at that.
