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 love Olipop. I haven’t been a soda drinker for a long time but these remind me of soda without all the sugar. I do remember having my first one and being unsure of how I felt about it but after I tried it again I fell in love with the flavors. I usually get Strawberry Vanilla and Grape from the store and I’ve ordered some of the limited flavors from the website!

  • I'm not a huge pop (or soda if you aren't from the midwest) gal, but wanted to try this since everyone was ranting and raving! Honestly, it is pretty good and having it be good for you is a bonus!!

  • I love the packaging of these and the flavor offerings. I've tried a large variety of the flavors and the Vintage Cola and Classic Root Beer were in my top two. The taste at first is really fun and sweet, but I could not get past the funky aftertaste. My stomach also never felt 100% after drinking these, which is ironic considering they're supposed to "support" digestive health. The fake fiber additives are actually gut damaging, I imagine. It's a fun alternative if you're trying to cut back on soda, but I wouldn't drink these regularly.

  • Olipop is the holy grail for me. I get drunk on the the Root Beer. The Orange Cream and Cream Soda are also very dangerous. Their flavor innovation is methodical and innovative. Looking forward to the future with Olipop. Too many Olipops and you make have to be near a bathroom, lol. Watch the inulin/fiber intake.

    Dang, the Cherry Cola is the only one I can't get behind. Tastes like cough syrup to me.

  • I love the olipop tropical punch and vintage cola flavors. They are a guilt free way to replace my soda cravings. Both my body and my mouth feel good about drinking these.

    Feedback

    A little more carbonation and they would be perfect!

  • I've tried OLIPOP once twice but both times I enjoyed knowing I could get that smooth creamsicle taste without the guilt of drinking a regular soda.

    Feedback

    I wish they were available in more restaurants so I could order one over dinner.

  • Let’s be honest, their branding is great. Not only that, it’s a good product and decently priced

    Feedback

    I don’t like sparkly water but these are very pleasant, with just the right amount of flavor.

  • I love that we found these healthier pops — the vintage cola and root beer taste so good and like the classics! But they don’t taste super sugary or hurt your stomach.

    Feedback

    Make a cream soda flavor!

  • Delish!! A great alternative to a caffeinated beverage. I don’t normally grab pop, but this seems like a healthy alternative for the waistline and gut.

  • I don't necessarily feel like the products are good "dupes" of their classic soda counterparts, but, when Olipop is available alongside soda, I often grab the Olipop. I'm so glad Olipop and other BFY beverage brands exist to give me option to make the right choice!

    Feedback

    Wish there was a slightly less obvious stevia/monkfruit after-taste, but it's often the price to pay for BFY.

  • These are dang good. I don't quite comprehend how they are able to make such tasty flavors without all the normal sugar and garage of traditional soda. I've had the cola flavor many a time, and it really hits the spot when you've got the craving. The packaging is adorable.

    Feedback

    I'd love to see the research or study that shows these are actually good for your gut health. While delicious and no doubt healthier than traditional soda, I still am not sure I totally buy its actually doing something positive.

  • I love cherry cola and strawberry. Some of the other lives feel a little flat. I love the concept of it being great for gut health and alternative to soda

  • I’m not a big soda guy but I’m a sucker for a good root beer or cream soda. While not quite as sweet or quite as fulfilling on that desire, these do the trick and are a whole lot healthier. If you’re ready to kick the soda habit and need a solid sub, Olipop will do the trick and you’ll thank your future self.

  • Delicious alternative to regular soda! I love rootbeer and tend to buy the rootbeer flavor as a workday treat.

  • I think Olipop is great! They have beautiful packaging and fun design. I think the flavors are nice, however, taste a bit sweet.. it surprises me that's there's so little sugar. I was really into these for a little while and then felt like they tasted too sweet for me so I stopped buying them.

  • I have tried 4 flavors and I didn’t love any of them, their texture/mouth feel is almost thick(?) which is a little off-putting

    Feedback

    I really like the mission of the brand so I hope they release more flavors and adjust the consistency of the pop

  • I can’t say I can tell if the prebiotics and other good things work when I drink these, but I can say I actually enjoy the taste of vs some other trendy soda alternatives.

  • After seeing the brand all over the internet, I finally saw them at a local grocery store and had to give them a try. The packaging instantly sold me and The Vintage Cola and Ginger Lemon were both good, but the taste didn't blow me away. I will probably buy them again, but I won't go out of my way to find them.

  • I wasn’t a fan of the taste personally. I tried almost all of the flavors as well. Love the idea that the brand is trying though.

  • I love Olipop, and I am in love with its new cherry cola flavor. It is a great afternoon pick me up with none of the sugar crash.

    I would love the ability to build your pack on the website. They restrict it to only a handful of flavors, and I wish it allowed for all.
