Reviews mention

  • Nostalgic, flavorful profiles
  • Refreshing, lighter mouthfeel
  • Prebiotic, fiber-forward formula
  • Broad, adventurous assortment
  • Occasional stevia aftertaste
  • Inconsistent carbonation fizz
  • Some flavors taste medicinal
  • Sweetness can be cloying

OLIPOP wins over many soda drinkers in reviews with nostalgic flavors like Vintage Cola, Classic Root Beer, Classic Grape, Strawberry Vanilla, Ginger Lemon, and Orange Squeeze that curb cravings while feeling lighter and “gut-friendly.” Reviews also flag weaknesses: several flavors read overly sweet with a noticeable stevia/artificial aftertaste, occasional low carbonation/flat cans, and hit‑or‑miss accuracy compared to legacy sodas—some love them, others find them medicinal or dull.

  • I’ve had other probiotic soda’s which are good but don’t fulfill my cravings for the real deal. Olipop is by far the best on the market. 10/10 would recommend, the grape soda is the best but all flavours are amazing. The only type of soda I drink these days.

  • tried: - strawberry vanilla ($2.50) at my local grocery store flavor: 5/5, i find myself craving this after every meal!! it's sweet with a strong strawberry taste and a hint of vanilla. sparkle: 4/5, not as sparkly as other sodas (it's no mcdonalds sprite!), but sparkly enough to satisfy that craving. feeling after: NA, i have a sensitive tummy, but gastrointestinally didn't feel too uncomfortable (although it's fiber filled + sparkling, so if you have sensitive tummy issues note this before you buy!). I have pretty good poops in general, so I can't add to the poop commentary. tips: chill it obvi, and put it in a fancy glass as a lil treat

  • I tried the ginger lemon and it’s very refreshing and good! The ginger flavor was strong with bit spiciness to the taste so maybe a child might not be a fan of this flavor. But I very much enjoyed it. I’d love to try another flavor!

  • Very pleasantly surprised! With only 2g of sugar, the root beer flavor tasted great! Not fake or tasteless. Will repurchase!

  • the cute brand design really stands out in the market ++ great flavors! can't say that i experienced any life-changing effects yet but great to know that this supports digestion!

  • I have to say I haven’t tried it myself but I’ve been to dinner with more people than I can count that bought this and really liked it - from friends in their 20s to my dad in his 60s. I think the fun packaging just makes them excited and then the taste just is a good bonus!

  • I have been seeing Olipop everywhere for a while, but I am hesitant to spend money on any drinks since I am pretty notorious for being picky about them. But finally, I got the chance to try two flavors, Tropical Punch and Classic Grape. First I tried the tropical punch since growing up I was obsessed with the Fruit Punch flavor of Capri Sun. Sadly, this tasted nothing like that, and I could only take a few sips before giving up. The flavor was just not appealing to me at all. Then I tried the Classic Grape flavor. This one was a lot better. It tasted like most things that have an artificial grape flavor, but thankfully this was not too strong. This is still something that will likely take days to finish since carbonated beverages are usually too powerful for me to finish in one go. But I'm glad I somewhat liked at least one flavor out of the two. I'm hoping to eventually try Strawberry Vanilla and Vintage Cola, as those two seem to be the most up my alley.

    Maybe a less carbonated version could be created.

  • I love that there has been a better-for-you revolution! As someone who is always looking for a better bang for my calorie buck, this fits the bill. It's really yummy and really kills that soda pop craving without giving me the sugar high.

    Feedback

    The sugars are still a little high for me to have on the regular. It's also super pricey.

  • Really cute packaging and good flavor options, but doesn’t actually taste like the sodas it’s trying to be. Tastes more like flavored seltzer which is fine, but the advertising is confusing.

    Feedback

    Either make it more soda-like or advertise it less like a soda.

  • Love Olipop! It's my favorite drink- healthy and great for the gut! highly recommend to try it out.

  • First of this is not your ordinary soda, the ingredient is amazing and way healthier than regular soda like Coke or Pepsi. But the taste tasted just like Soda. So for those soda addicts, this drink is the best healthy alternative to drink.

    Feedback

    Find a way to remove "Stevia" and use a better sweetener. Stevia is an okay sweetener but not the best. There are better and healthy options out there.

  • The flavors are overly sweet for my taste, but maybe they are good for kids.

  • Depending on the flavor, I think it's a great alternative from your big box brands. Grape is a solid flavor! But after a while, the flavor gets too medicine-y... can't really explain, but it gets harder to drink towards the end. I don't usually finish a whole can.

  • Love the classic root beer but didn't enjoy the other flavors as much (tried the vintage cola & cherry vanilla a few times to see if it would match the root beer). Will try other flavors but so far have only really enjoyed the root beer.

  • After much testing (any time it is on sale at the grocery store), I have determined that Olipop is the superior probiotic pop. The flavors range from your classic fountain drinks like vintage cola and root beer, to more online flavors like ginger lemon and banana cream (one I have not ventured to taste). Tropical Punch is my favorite, and I like that some flavors are caffeinated and some not. It definitely has some of that weird stevia taste to it, but in a very manageable way. -1 point for being a wee bit expensive and not available at my Costco lol

  • The fiber in these can be particularly hard on the stomach, and none of the flavors that I have tried (vintage cola, root beer, and cherry vanilla) have been very tasty. Don't plan to try any other flavors.

  • Flavors were creative, the fiber was a nice touch, but that's about where my positive comments end . Really disliked the stevia aftertaste, didn't think the flavors were very good either.

  • Vintage Cola is my favorite flavor of Olopop because it is a healthier alternative to other colas. The gut benefits are a great incentive to an already delicious drink. I hope they come out with new flavors soon, especially alternatives to other popular sodas.

  • I love olipops, they come out with the best flavors. My favorite is cherry vanilla, ginger ale and orange squeeze. The seasonal flavors are always so delicious too. I like having these as an afternoon pick me up when I'm craving something refreshing and light without caffeine or sugar.
