How come there aren’t any tablets to make sparkling drinking water (the Soda Stream way), although there are tablets that can make the it sparkling, i.e. water soluble Vitamin C tablets?

Question

I have really searched all over the internet, it doesn’t exist. I believe I can’t be the first one to think of that trick, so there must be a reason for that. Can anyone illuminate me by explaining like I’m really 5, as I’m a chemistry alien. Thanks!

Overall, though, as many have said, is due to pressure. Like the vitamin c taps, the effervescence is gone as soon as the tablet is dissolved.
