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 was really excited to try Olipop, but it's just okay. The vintage cola flavor is not exactly what I was expecting, but it is still good. I don't think I'd go out of my way to buy it again, but it is a good soda alternative. Warning to any IBS sufferers: this has 9g of fiber in it, which was something I did not expect until I had finished the can and looked at the nutrition info. There's a slight laxative effect to this drink, so I definitely wouldn't throw them back if this is something that can set off your stomach.

  • refreshing, tasty, and healthy! this was sent to me as a gift, and I loved the strawberry vanilla & orange flavors most from the variety pack.

    Feedback

    wish it was easier to buy in bulk at the grocery store.

  • Fun packaging and flavor options! Ginger lemon and cherry vanilla were my favorites.

    Feedback

    Could be a bit more bubbly.

  • I’m not the biggest fan of soda so I was curious about this “better-for-you” alternative and wanted to give it a shot! The flavors are delicious (I tried the Root Beer and Strawberry Vanilla) and I adore the fact that these drinks are a great and healthy soda alternative. The packaging is also super fun.

    Feedback

    I hope that Olipop is easier to buy in the future and that there will be more flavors! The price per can is also rather steep and makes it difficult to buy regularly right now.

  • Love me some Olipop! The cola and rootbeer are my personal favorites because they are the perfect alternative to soda. I am obsessed with the fact that there is so much fiber in these because we could all use more fiber!

    Feedback

    I would love it if they were a little more bubbly and carbonated.

  • Of all the "new" sodas out there, I love Olipop the most. The lemon ginger and root beer are my favorites —I like the root beer better than real root beer.

  • I'm a fan! I've tried a few OLIPOP flavors over the past months -- Root Beer and Ginger Lemon for sure, and possibly Strawberry Vanilla, though memory fails me. I've been quite satisfied with each one I've tried. I appreciate that OLIPOPs have a good yet natural flavor that come close to the original thing (e.g. as with the Root Beer option) while boasting nutrition facts that aren't chock full of sugar. And while the sodas are low in sugar, they're not characterized by the bitter chemically flavor of aspartame-based diet sodas.

  • Delicious soda alternative

    Feedback

    Taste a bit more watered down than I expected from the names of the flavors

  • i really wanted to love these drinks but the taste profile wasn't 100% for me... some of the flavors resonated more than others (Vintage Cola > Strawberry Vanilla)... but overall, I think I'd prefer a sparkling water beverage over these for most occasions...

    Feedback

    slightly lingering after taste...

  • I love the Vintage Cola. I stopped drinking Coke years ago because of how unhealthy it is, but always missed the flavor. Olipop's Vintage Cola makes me feel like I'm basically having it.

    Feedback

    I haven't loved the other flavors I've tried, although I've only tried 3 others - the orange, root beer, and strawberry vanilla. They were too sweet or left a weird flavor in my mouth.

  • really good flavors, I tried the root beer and orange cream, keep in mind that whatever you order needs to be refrigerated

    Feedback

    Not enough carbonation for me

  • Good, not great. It is better than regular soda and a nice change from seltzer.

    Feedback

    Good product, but the taste does not warrant price.

  • Not all flavors for everyone, but the first time I tried the Vintage Cola/Root Beers I loved it. They're so fun and delicious, while guilt-free.

    Feedback

    I'd say that the fruitier flavors like Ginger Lemon and the Orange Squeeze could have more of a sour/tangy bite to it. I've never been a fan of Vanilla-flavored sodas, so the Strawberry and Cherry aren't my faves.

  • Can't get enough OLIPOP. Could seriously replace all soda for the rest of my life with this stuff. The Cherry Vanilla and Strawberry Vanilla are like crack. The Vintage is the least interesting of the bunch, but the Orange and Root Beer are solid alternatives to the standard lineup of BigBev.

    Feedback

    Price. I get it, they are natural and super "healthy", but I shouldn't have to take out a loan to buy a six pack.

  • I really wanted to like these healthy alternatives to soda, but they just didn't hit the mark flavor-wise for me. Everything had a bit of a medicinal taste and I was better off just drinking sparkling water.

    Feedback

    The flavor. Too medicinal.

  • I think their lemon ginger soda is heaven on earth. I do not drink soda and I found it to be the perfect level of sweetness.

  • Very Instagramable can of okay-ish sparkling(-ish) tonic. I have tried their Cherry Vanilla and Root Beer flavors and found they lacked in both flavor and bubbles.

  • I tried this product recently and I am obsessed now. I love the flavors and the quality. Tastes very refreshing and it is very smooth when drinking. Great to have it with lunch, on its own, or outside while by the pool.
