It's carbonated water. you can get sugar free coffee syrups to put in it. Totally yummy! A grocery store should have it somewhere around there

  I have a soda machine at home. Makes sodas. So I made some with a touch of heavy cream and sugar free vanilla last night. Very good! After reading this post. Very helpful.

It should be with the coffee at your grocery store. I know Walmart has a good selection.
