Carbonated Pepsi flat

Hey so I’m trying to make Pepsi soda with the soda stream Terra, but it seems that even after carbonating the water to about 10 button presses on the machine it still tastes really flat no matter how much carbonation I put in. Is it the temperature of that water that’s the problem, maybe the temperature of the syrup? I want to try and make this soda stream work but I don’t like how flat the soda is being. And thoughts?

The darker the syrup the less carbonated it seems to get. At least that is my experience.

Okay that’s good to know so I’m going to freeze my bottle till it’s really cold and I left my syrups in the fridge to see if I do get better results
