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.

It’s interesting if you like tonic water. Healthier alternative but it is a bit on the pricey side.
I love Olipop! I think that their flavors taste great and I love the health benefits that are listed. My favorite flavors are probably cherry/strawberry vanilla and vintage coke. They taste super close to what the flavor describes them to be, just without the sugaryness of regular soda. Would love to see some sour flavors in the future!
I've seen these drinks all over TikTok so I finally decided to try them. Because it seems like everyone raves about them, I think had my expectations set too high. I tried the Cherry Vanilla, Tropical Punch, and Classic Root Beer. I liked the Tropical Punch flavor the best but overall, they were just "okay" to me. They were very sweet at first, which I was not expecting and I just was not a big fan of the after taste. It reminded me of diet sodas in a way (if that makes sense). I feel like these drinks are something you start to drink and are not the biggest fans of but continue to drink them and it starts to grow on you. But I do really like how they are somewhat good for you, so I want to keep trying them and see if they get better the more I drink them!
Classic Root Beer is my go-to. Always a happy customer as olipop quenches my craving for a soda and never feel the ick that I usually get from a typical soda. Bonus - who doesn't want an indulgent way to better our gut health!
I loveeeee OLIPOP. The flavors are all so delicious. I'm not as big of a fan of the "soda" flavors, I get too much of that artificial flavor from them. But the Orange and Strawberry Vanilla are the best. I only wish that more of the flavors were accessible. They came out with a new Watermelon flavor that I have been dying to try but have not found at any of my usual stores. I do appreciate how they are becoming more accessible though. I used to only get them from Erewhon and Whole Foods and I've seen them showing up at more retailers. I am a supporter!

Healthy drinks!!! I tried these one day because they just seemed so fun on the shelves! The lower sugar content is a major win and the dozen plus flavors make every experience so tasty! Great for summer picnics!
Healthy, but tastes healthy too. I would rather just drink water most of the time than have one because it doesn’t taste like an alternative for actual pop. Worth a try if you’re interested though! I liked most flavors I tried.
I've tried the Stawberry Vanilla, the Cherry Vanilla, the Root Beer, the Ginger Lemon and the Orange Squeeze. Of those the Orange Squeeze was my favorite because it reminded me of a very light Orange Julius. The other flavors I tried were fine but unremarkable and I rarely want to drink a whole can of this stuff.

I find all the buzzwords around microbiome and digestive health to be irritating at best and some form of wellness-washing at worst. I'm a fan of probiotics, but this is not how that stuff works in the body. Just having some fermentation/"good bacteria" in a drink doesn't turn it into a carbonated version of vitamins. I am uncomfortable with the way this is marketed as a "healthier" version of classic sodas.
These sodas are delicious! We recently had them at a work event, and everyone immediately gravitated towards the Olipop over cold brew, Ghia, La Croix. It was crazy to see how the different flavors and how good they tasted were actually sparking conversations between people. I love the Classic Root Beer and Vintage Cola flavors the most.
Feedback
The Strawberry Vanilla can taste a little like cough syrup once it isn't as fizzy and cold. Would prefer a less synthetic taste.

So so good. I tried the Crisp Apple flavor and it tastes so fresh! I didn't taste any of the sweeteners like some of the negative reviews talk about, but I haven't tried many flavors. Next up is Strawberry Vanilla for me!
Feedback
I love the branding and the different flavors. More flavors like the Crisp Apple would be great!
Delicious and not too sweet. A healthy alternative to regular soda.
Feedback
Could be sweeter/ more flavorful. A bit expensive.
Loved some of the flavors. Others not so much.
Feedback
Some of the flavors gave me a migraine -- not sure if "sugar" content.

I'm not usually a soda drinker but I actually love these sodas. I find that the sugar level feels balanced, and there's something magical about the flavours that makes me want to actually drink something carbonated and sweet, which is a little abnormal for me! It's an added bonus that there are prebiotics and other healthy additions.
Feedback
Not much to say, although perhaps just being more accessible in Canada! I can only find them at a couple shops around Vancouver, would love to see them at some additional locations.
I tried the Vintage Cola flavor and it was slightly less sweet than I was expecting it (good thing!) Yum! Will be buying again.

While the brand itself has done more than it's fair share of establishing itself amongst the cool and interested within and outside of DTC circles, I often find the taste lacking. I wish they stayed away from the classic soda flavors as those are consistently what I'm attracted to with my knowledge of how bad they are for me, but every time I find the taste too nigh-on-medicinal and more of a cruel uncanny valley than a refreshing drink itself. The fruity and more original flavors often live up to expectations, but again, I've been burned so my expectations have been adjusted accordingly.
Feedback
The branding and mission of the brand are spot-on, lean into what you can do well which is story telling and good for you ingredients. Don't try and be what you're not.
I love the idea of healthy soda. I think the flavors are hit and miss with this brand but would still recommend overall.

I’m surprised Olipop isn’t higher in rating. The only reason I knocked off a point is that it’s $$$. I love the root beer flavor!
I tried the orange flavour. It was far too sweet, so I passed it to a workmate, who didn't like it either.
I only tried the Strawberry Vanilla flavor, and wanted so badly to like it. I love the branding and their social media presence! It tasted so strongly of Stevia to me, though, that I ended up pouring half the can down the drain.
I really wanted to love Olipop, and I was so excited when my local bodega started carrying most of the flavors. I bought every flavor they had, and tried them back to back. Unfortunately, I find all of them to be under-flavored and under-carbonated, which leaves you with something that tastes like flat, old diet soda.
