Did you prime the bottles with sugar/glucose,if not add 1 teaspoon per pint thats what I use.

firstly make sure the water bottles are the fizzy water kind - most still water comes in flimsy, non pressure rated bottles.

When you add the priming sugars remember that with the size of your bottles you'll need a couple of teaspoons at least

The short version:

Open bottles, add 5g sugar, close bottles, wait 2 weeks.
