Reviews mention

  • Convincing nostalgic flavors
  • Lower sugar formulation
  • Gut‑friendly prebiotic blend
  • Attractive, nostalgic branding
  • Occasional stevia aftertaste
  • Inconsistent flavor execution
  • Sometimes low carbonation
  • Potential bloating for some

OLIPOP earns mostly positive reviews for delivering a convincing, lower‑sugar soda experience with gut‑friendly prebiotics and 9g fiber per can; many say it curbs soda cravings and specific flavors like Vintage Cola, Classic Root Beer, Strawberry Vanilla, Classic Grape, Ginger Lemon, Orange Squeeze, and Cream Soda stand out. Reviews also flag weaknesses: some flavors taste overly sweet or artificial with stevia aftertaste, carbonation can feel flat, effects on digestion vary (from helpful regularity to bloating), and flavor hit‑or‑miss consistency means not every “soda‑dupe” lands.

  • Wasn’t my favorite , does not taste like soda but also wasn’t the worst thing I drank, just not worth going out of your way to drink it.

  • Love the vintage cola flavor. Not exactly the same flavor as a typical cola, but it’s reminiscent enough and is not nearly as full of sugar.

    Feedback

    They are fairly expensive.

  • I ordered the classic mix pack to try out the original flavors. My favorites were Vintage Cola, Classic Root Beer, and Orange Squeeze. I have ordered these three multiple times. They taste just like soda.

    Should call out the 9 grams of fiber more clearly or you end up with the Olipops aka the Oli-Farts. One can easily drink three but the gas is funny at first and then it gets to be too much.

  • These drinks are absolutely delicious. My partner, who was an avid soda drinker, has transitioned his soda drinking over to Olipop. The flavors are unique, the carbonation is spot on. These don’t leave me feeling bloated like many other carbonated drinks.

  • Fun alternative to soda

    Feedback

    Less vinegar taste in products like the rootbeer

  • Love the branding, colors, and the idea of a more "natural" and healthy soda. Also a lot of fiber? What?

    Feedback

    Some flavors taste better than others.

  • I tried classic grape. This drink just really wasn’t my thing. I’m not a big fan of artificial sweeteners and it was definitely noticeable while drinking. I think if you like most sweet sodas, then you might find this to be a tasty and healthier alternative.

  • Absolutely adore this brand. The flavors are amazing, fiber content is great, and no guilt when drinking it!

    Feedback

    Carbonation could improve, but not a big problem.

  • I used to own a kombucha brewery and was SO excited when I heard about Olipop. I tried to track it down for months until finally found the root beer flavor at a grocery store, only to try it and taste diet soda, but even worse. I tried the strawberry vanilla and had the same experience. For $2.50, it was junk.

    Feedback

    Get rid of that weird artificial diet flavor. Pre/probiotics could make you feel good.

  • I love OLIPOP!! Not only is their team the nicest, the flavors are amazing! Vintage cola and strawberry vanilla are my favorites!

    Feedback

    I’d love more savory flavors or a lemon lime soda flavor!

  • The only flavor I enjoyed was the Orange flavor. Not a big fan of the rest however I do like how healthy they are compared to regular soda.

    Feedback

    Some flavors have a weird aftertaste

  • Amazing flavor, not really washed down flavor and great for digestion

  • I purchased a few Olipop cans through my Imperfect Foods inscription, and tried the Root Beer, Vintage Cola, Strawberry Vanilla, and Orange Squeeze flavors. I was really impressed with the taste of Vintage Cola, it tasted just like a regular soda. (I say this as someone who hasn’t had soda in many years so take this with a grain of salt). Strawberry Vanilla was definitely my favorite and I have repurchased this flavor several times now. The drinks are fizzy, fun, and very tasty. Haven’t noticed any benefits from the prebiotics but it lets me think I’m having a “healthy” beverage.

  • Overall love the flavors and healthy benefits. The cola and root beer flavors are a little chemical tasting but the orange and strawberry is a favorite.

  • I love this brand! I keep my work fridge stocked with olipop. It's a fun pick me up for the afternoon slump and it helps your gut!

    Feedback

    I wish there were even more flavors. A friendlier price would make this more accessible and I would buy it more often.

  • I love Ollipop! Strawberry vanilla is sooo delicious.

    Feedback

    The price. It’s unfortunate this brand is so expensive. If it was more accessible it could replace coca-cola as the leading soda brand.

  • I love some of the olipop flavors! Vintage cola and classic grape are great- they definitely have the artificial sweetener taste, but it's not overpowering. Their seasonal blackberry vanilla flavor is amazing!

    Feedback

    It can be difficult to locate specific flavors. I'd love to try Tropical Punch, but I haven't been able to find it in store since they launched, and I don't want to order a whole pack if I'm not sure I'll enjoy it! I'd love to see a build your own custom pack on their website- so you could mix and match flavors.

  • Flavor is fantastic and a perfect alternative to craving a soda without the nasty additives and chemicals.

  • I literally LOVE OLIPOP! They’re really changing the beverage market for the better. Good tasting products with an even better mission.

  • Definitely taste alternative. I tried the orange flavor and my roommate tried Ginger lemon. Both were misses, but I also hate that fake sugar taste that drinks like this often have.

    Feedback

    Work on the flavor. It's not a good replacement for me.
