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 love olipop! Every flavor I have tried is fun and interesting. I would drink it even without the health benefits— it’s THAT good!

  • The Vintage Cola and Root Beer have fully become a staple for me. They curb my craving for soda and always are refreshing. The taste is amazing so you're not really sacrificing anything but the bad stuff.

    Feedback

    I think with most 'healthy' alternatives to sweets and sodas is just getting past the flavor difference in sugar vs. alternative sweetener. Some of the drinks are just a little too sweet for my liking, so that's why I stick to the sodas.

  • I liked the flavors, it was easy to find in stores

  • BEST SODA EVER. BETTER THAN REGULAR SODA! And it feels like medicine in that you feel BETTER after you drink it!! Flavors are incredible. Orange and Strawberry are my current favs but sometimes I go through root beer and coke phases. I walked all over NYC to find these when they first released and it's worth it - big fans ever since! They are pricey so my husband and I gift them to eachother for special holidays.

  • I love Olipop, it makes drinking soda attainable again. I love root beer and the ocassional orange soda, but never want to drink traditional soda because of the chemicals and ingredients usually included. Olipop tastes amazing, has probiotics and fiber and healthy ingredients that are actually good for me.

    Feedback

    Definitely a bit pricey when it comes to a soda.

  • I've been drinking OLIPOP for about 2 years and am obsessed. Unlike other sparking tonics/soda waters, this pop is full of soda-like flavor, plant fiber, and prebiotics to help with a balanced gut! I mostly drink water, but I love having something to help with cravings that's actually good for me. I'm actually subscribed to 3 cases per month!

    I wish some of my favorite, limited-release flavors were available year-round!

  • You need a few tries and flavors to get acquired to the taste! I love blackberry vanilla and cherry vanilla, wasn’t crazy about the others. Super excited to try fruit punch! I love the sweetness of it and it’s a great alternate to super unhealthy fruity drinks.

    Feedback

    Definitely more flavors! The ones with vanilla are the best to me so maybe some more with those.

  • The “fun” soda flavors (think Strawberry Vanilla, Classic Grape, Root Beer etc) are all great as an evening treat — but what really sold me is the Cola. Made with Green Tea caffeine and chock-full of fiber, it’s quickly wormed its way into my existing Diet Coke addiction.

    Feedback

    Overall the flavors are super saturated and read more like a candy/evening treat than a beverage, but I look forward to the team launching more refreshing or caffeinated flavors to turn to when you want something lighter than coffee.

  • This is certainly an acquired taste but at the end of the day it tasted too much like mushrooms

  • I love Olipop. Taste so good Plus has caffeine in some. Yum

  • I am a huge fan of Olipop! The variety of flavors are delicious, not overly sweet, and have the perfect amount of carbonation. A perfect soda substitute!!!!

    Feedback

    Even more flavors!!!

  • SO DELICIOUS! My favorite healthy alternative to soda

  • I really enjoy olipop - it satisfied my sweet tooth without being overly sweet - the orange squeeze flavor is my favorite

  • Adorable branding, good marketing and I love anything that can get me a few extra probiotics

    Feedback

    Honestly, flavor was underwhelming. I love the concept and I love how they’re promoting probiotics- a few more flavors and I can see this being a huge hit.

  • The flavors were not as “true” to the original as the brand would lead you to believe. Everything had a bit of a syrup-y texture and was very very sweet. In my opinion, vintage cola was the farthest off taste-wise. The root beer tasted more like butterscotch than root beer, which was ok but not too exactly what I expected. Concord grape was a hit, though. I did feel like some minor stomach discomfort was alleviated after drinking about half a can, which is exactly why I bought this brand.

    Feedback

    Some flavors are good but not exactly what their names suggest.

  • Way too expensive for the product. The packaging drew me in but I was not impressed with the flavor. It felt artificial and did not taste good.

    Feedback

    Price drop. $36 for a 12 pack is too much.

  • I love this concept and the flavors, but the experience doesn't match or replace soda, especially with a meal. The artificial sweetness is too strong and lingers, and the carbonation is too weak so the beverage doesn't stay refreshing for long. That said, if those things were improved I would be a huge fan! The flavors are great.

    Feedback

    Less artificial, lingering sweetness, more carbination

  • I had the lemon ginger! The packaging is fun and beautiful and I think this is a great alternative for soda drinkers!

    Feedback

    The flavor was a little underwhelming, I'm a kombucha girl at heart!

  • As a soda drinker, Olipop is amazing. It is sweet and fizzy and really satisfies my cravings. They have a good range of flavors and I love that they aid in digestive health. The price point is awesome as well.

    Feedback

    Some of the flavors are a bit too sweet. I think they could get away with less artificial sweetener and it would still taste great. Looking forward to seeing what flavors they will release next as well.
