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 tried the strawberry vanilla and vintage cola and they’re pretty good! Not as close to a traditional soda as I was expecting but I did enjoy them. Definitely worth a try if you’re trying to cut back on real sodas or if you’re just into digestive health.

  • I love the branding and the healthier spin to soda that the brand takes!

  • I absolutely love the Strawberry Vanilla flavor, tastes like a strawberry cream soda. I have noticed a difference in an improvement with my digestive health. My stomach usually hurts in the morning, and I have noticed, that after drinking an Olipop, my stomach feels a lot better.

  • An acquired taste - tastes like artificial sugar and fruit essence. Good for gut health but if you're expecting traditional soda flavor, this is not it.

    Feedback

    You can definitely tell this is a drink designed for gut health, so it doesn't taste as good as real soda.

  • Favs: Vintage Cola, Strawberry Vanilla and Classic Grape Not Favs: Ginger Lemon, Cherry Vanilla These are a hit and a miss! Some of them have a strong synthetic stevia-esque aftertaste that lingers but its barely noticeable in the good ones.

    Feedback

    Remove the stevia flavor and they will be great.

  • I've tried the strawberry vanilla and orange squeeze flavors, both are delicious! Of the sparkling water brands that support gut health, Olipop is my favorite.

    Feedback

    Would love to see a guava or POG flavor!

  • I have only tried the orange flavor but if they all taste similar regular soda then I won’t have any complaints. The drink was smooth and didn’t taste like fake syrup. Will go back to buy more.

    Feedback

    I wish they sold large variety packs at like Costco or in stores.

  • I love the flavor options and the packaging is so well designed!

    Feedback

    I wish more of a flavor range was available at the retailers that carry these. They seem to only have 2 or 3 flavors at a time.

  • I've only two flavors (strawberry vanilla and orange squeeze). I liked the orange flavor (although it became sickening halfway through) but I really disliked the strawberry vanilla. It was very sweet and had an odd savory flavor to it.

    Feedback

    Alter some of the flavors - it may just not be to my taste but it is the kind of drink that I stop drinking halfway through.

  • So tasty!! The flavors are fun, and I love the innovative prebiotics that they use! :) I am especially a fan of the Strawberry Vanilla.

    Feedback

    Honestly, nothing! (maybe, aside from being a little bit lower price — but it makes it a fun treat on occasion).

  • I found OLIPOP Sparkling Tonic at Sprouts and tried the ginger lemon, vintage cola, and tropical punch flavors. The ginger lemon and vintage cola were everything I hoped for and more, and I'm so glad I tried them; I wasn't a huge fan of the flavor of the tropical punch, but it wasn't undrinkable. The drink was very refreshing and not too sweet, which I appreciated. I loved knowing that this soda-style tonic was also beneficial for me. Prebiotic and probiotic drinks are right up my alley. OLIPOP is a pleasant alternative to satisfy those natural soda, juice, and kombucha pangs. Dietary fiber, low calories, and approachable flavors are the cherry on top.

    Feedback

    Decrease the amount of sugar-alternative used in the OLIPOP Tropical Punch variety and consider decreasing the amount of apple juice concentrate.

  • Love OLIPOP! The flavors are unique yet familiar and it's a fun way to have a treat without the negative effects of alcohol or real soda. Have gotten for people as little celebratory gifts, too.

    Feedback

    Sometimes a shipment will have one or two that leak and gets sticky, but otherwise great experiences!

  • A really great soda alternative! I love soda and this is a great replacement that helps my teeth and my body feel better about divulging!!!

    Feedback

    Sometimes certain flavors taste slightly artificial, like the ginger lemon and vintage cola.

  • Love love love Olipop! It is a great treat and substitution to typical sodas. I am not a big soda drinker to start, but I love the prebiotic benefits Olipop provides. Some of the flavors are so nostalgic.

  • Tried the root beer flavor and tasted very different usual root beer

    Feedback

    I liked that it was less sugar but it had an off flavor

  • When I first saw what looked like a soda on the shelf for $2.50 for a single can, I was a bit turned off. But then I picked it up and read the label and realized Olipop is so much more than soda! It’s low sugar, high fiber deliciousness and the Root Beer is my ultimate favorite. There is a reason that a can of Olipop is more expensive than regular soda, THE INGREDIENTS - instead of 20 teaspoons of sugar and fake coloring, it’s packed full of prebiotics and fiber and still tastes amazing.

    Feedback

    I’d love to be able to find a multipack, currently I’ve only seen single cans for sale.

  • I like the flavors and the fact that they're better for you than a typical soda. However, you can kind of taste the artificial sugar aftertaste.
