Reviews mention

  • Convincing nostalgic flavors
  • Lower sugar formulation
  • Gut‑friendly prebiotic blend
  • Attractive, nostalgic branding
  • Occasional stevia aftertaste
  • Inconsistent flavor execution
  • Sometimes low carbonation
  • Potential bloating for some

OLIPOP earns mostly positive reviews for delivering a convincing, lower‑sugar soda experience with gut‑friendly prebiotics and 9g fiber per can; many say it curbs soda cravings and specific flavors like Vintage Cola, Classic Root Beer, Strawberry Vanilla, Classic Grape, Ginger Lemon, Orange Squeeze, and Cream Soda stand out. Reviews also flag weaknesses: some flavors taste overly sweet or artificial with stevia aftertaste, carbonation can feel flat, effects on digestion vary (from helpful regularity to bloating), and flavor hit‑or‑miss consistency means not every “soda‑dupe” lands.

  • I gave this a 5 star because the flavors that are really good are REALLY good. It tastes like pop (soda)! It blew my mind. I love the grape & tropical flavors. The classic root beer is not that great. That one I would not recommend. The orange is pretty good as well but my faves are grape & tropical punch. So good I got my teenage son to drink it. Haha. I love that its great for my gut health as i have been someone that has had gut issues in the past.

  • Olipop root beer is my favorite beverage ever! it’s just like the real thing but not so overwhelmingly sweet AND it’s good for your gut.

  • I’ve only tried the brand’s cola but I loved it! Such a. Refreshing change to the soda/beverage landscape. I’d recommend to anyone looking for a healthier alternative as well!

  • I saw this while grocery shopping today and browsing for my usual kombucha. Packaging definitely caught my eye as it’s super cute and pastel. I was hesitant as it is rather expensive (almost 4$ a can!!!). I wouldn’t use as a soda replacement as it wasn’t as fizzy as I expected but it was pretty tasty (strawberry cream) and refreshing while cold, and you can’t go wrong with gut health. Overall it’s definitely something to splurge on but not an everyday item.

  • I have never been a pop girlie, but OLIPOP is everything. Strawberry Vanilla, Orange Squeeze, and Classic Grape are my faves and I never feel like garbage after drinking one - which I usually do after drinking anything other than water. My absolute favorite li'l treat.

  • Love the grape one, but the other flavors really disappoint.

  • Some of the flavors are better than others, but I especially love the root beer - it tastes IDENTICAL to legit root beer!

  • So good, I don’t even realize there’s hardly any sugar in it! My favorite flavors are Root Beer, Vintage Cola, and Doctor Goodwin.

  • A good alternative to soda in a variety of flavors. Way lower in sugar. More expensive than regular soda especially online but the health trade off is worth it.

  • I think the banana cream flavour might go down as my all-time favourite drink option... no joke it's that good! Feels like a treat every time and definitely helps with digestion - only wish is that they were all caffeine free!

  • Love ollipop! Their strawberry vanilla is my fave, and the root beer is my partner's fave. The Orange is my runner up.

  • Getting enough fiber in your diet is very important, and Oliopop makes it easy! The sodas are delicious and taste just like their unhealthy brethren.

  • I love that OLIPOP gives a healthier alternative to soda. My favorite flavors so far have been Root Beer, Lemon Lime, and Cream Soda. Some flavors fall flat but others are very similar to the original soda flavor.

  • Fun and refreshing! Nice spin on a regular sparkling water.

  • Flavors are amazing and it’s just such an easy classic to me. Buy one almost everytime I’m out. Best flavor is cream soda or classic root beer.

  • I think Olipop is a really cool idea. I absolutely love their mission because I want to find drinks I love that are healthier for me and also tasty, but as a lover of soda products; this does not scratch the itch. The artificial sweetener ruined a lot of the drinks for me. If you're not a fan of stevia, these are not the drinks for you. If the taste of stevia works for your taste buds, you might love this brand. My two favorite flavors were the orange and grape sodas, to me they tasted the most similar to their normal soda counterparts. The other flavors either were way too sweet to enjoy or just tasted way too far off from what they were mimicking. Dear Olipop, if you come out with a line that is instead much less sweet, maybe using only cane sugar as a sweetener, I would immediately go out and give it a try.

  • Olipop is hands down my go to drink for a pick me up, long day at work, or feeling something bubbly! So many different flavors to create mocktails, ice cream floats, or enjoying by itself.

  • The flavors I have tried are the strawberry cream, root beer, cherry cola, and Dr. Goodwin. My favorite is probably the strawberry, and I found the root beer most similar in taste to actual pop. I love that these drinks both fulfill my thirst for pop in a healthier way while also being a probiotic. My only issue with some flavors (Dr Goodwin and cherry cola) is that they taste a bit artificial and syrupy. Not so much that I wouldn’t have them again though.

  • The root beer flavor is amazing without feeling guilty!!!

  • I tried the root beer and it didn’t really taste like root beer. It had very little carbonation.
