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 am a former soda guy, and this is an amazing alternative. Some flavors are better than others, but all in all really great!

  • I'm a soda fiend (literally grew up with a 50s soda fountain in my house). In adulthood, I've been looking for healthier alternatives that still give me that fizzy fun without all the calories and, most importantly, without any gross aftertaste that often comes along with sugar alternatives. I really wanted Olipop to be it for me (I mean look at how cute it is), but I think the taste of chicory root and stevia just isn't for me.

    Less aftertaste!

  • Obsessed is an understatement. I've never been a big soda drinker, so I wasn't looking for a replacement, but the vintage cola is the best flavor in my opinion. That being said, they are all good and their newest flavor Doctor Goodwin is too!

    Nothing at all, stay exactly the same.

  • I drink it wayyy more than I would like to cause it’s just that good. I’ve tried other brands like poppi but nothing is as good as Olipop.

  • I've tried the Ginger Lemon tonic, and overall I think it is a wonderful little beverage! The design is very cute and the prebiotics, botanicals, and non-gmo plant fiber makes it feel like a delicious, healthy soda.

  • So good! Was a little hesitant to try because I love traditional cola. It has great taste, great bubbles and great flavor combos!

  • I was skeptical when I first encountered OLIPOP, thinking they were just one more ready to drink brand with trend-forward label design with a "healthier-than-soda" angle... Well now I'm fully addicted to these. The classic grape is my favorite - it's indistinguishable from the grape soda I drank as a kid and I can feel a little less guilty about it.

  • Olipop are super delicious and taste similar to a soda while maintaining that you feel great physically and ethically!

  • I thought the cherry vanilla was alright and loved the strawberry vanilla. These are both really light and refreshing and easier to drink than Kombucha! Will definitely buy again.

    There is “apple juice” and “lemon juice” on the packaging but I’d love more of a description of what that means, to make sure I’m not just drinking “juice”.

  • I get the Root Beer and Cola almost every time I go to Whole Foods. Big fan of Olipop and love their branding!

  • I love I can get that soda feel as healthy as possible. I hate all the seltzers that are so popular right now. They have zero flavor. This makes me feel like I am sort of healthy, satisfying the carbonation fix, and still delicious! I am OK with it being a little more expensive then soda or other seltzers right now. It reminds me this is a "treat", and not to chug down these things multiple times daily. Although, you probably could because they are not nearly as high sugar as regular soda from a health perspective. My fave flavor is Strawberry Vanilla and Cherry Vanilla. Orange squeeze and Cola is pretty good. I am not a fan of root beer regularly so I can't say I have tried it. Only downside is the their distribution. Can't get locally very easily yet. I have to order online or go to special, high end markets.

    Hope to see you in more stores soon! Rather then having to go to specialty super markets or order online.

  • All the flavors are amazing! Hard to find in grocery stores but when you do, feels like you won the lottery.

  • All-in-all, the flavors are decent and definitely reminiscent of the classic sodas it wants to emulate. However, they are VERY sweet. I can barely get through one can without pouring the rest down the drain.

  • Cola is My favorite flavor but I need to try more. I love that I can drink this instead of regular soda and feel good. I always have these stocked in my fridge!

    Would love for them to have a bit more carbonation- if you don’t drink it fast enough I feel like it tastes flat.

  • I love every flavor I've tried! Olipop always hits the spot and love that it's sweet and flavorful like a soda, but with healthier ingredients and lower in sugar.

  • Huge fan of OLIPOP, especially the Strawberry Vanilla flavor! I love the digestive health benefits and that it's still a sweet drink, but not in the overwhelming, kind-of-icky way that regular soda is. I would pick OLIPOP over a can of regular soda any day, for sure.

  • Really impressed with the cola. enjoyed that flavor and the ginger lemon a lot. makes a great mixer for cocktails without insane amounts of sugar.

  • OBSESSED. I love the flavors and the taste. I don’t drink regular soda so this is the closest I’ll do. Great ingredients!

    More seasonal flavors. Please have less occurrences of “sold out”.
