Reviews mention

  • Vibrant flavor variety
  • Refreshing fizzy mouthfeel
  • Lighter, cleaner ingredients
  • Eye-catching playful packaging
  • Lingering stevia aftertaste
  • Occasionally too sweet profile
  • Inconsistent soda dupes
  • Lower carbonation intensity

Poppi earns largely positive reviews as a tasty, lower-sugar soda alternative that many say curbs cravings, feels lighter on the stomach, and sometimes helps with bloating; favorites include Raspberry Rose, Orange, Ginger Lime, Doc Pop, Cherry Limeade, Classic Cola, and Root Beer. Reviews also flag weaknesses: a noticeable stevia/artificial aftertaste for some, occasional vinegary tang or sweetness that runs too high, less carbonation than expected, mixed success of cola/root beer “dupes,” and inconsistent alignment with claimed gut benefits.

  • My favorite soda brand. Made with clean ingredients, good for your gut and absolutely delicious. Hits the spot every time. Even my kids love to taste!

  • I absolute LOVE poppi! As someone who needs an daily afternoon sweet treat, poppi has quickly become what I look forward to most. My favorite flavors to date are Strawberry Lemonade, Cherry Limeade, Watermelon and the holiday special Cranberry Fizz. I want to add a caveat, though: I have a sweet tooth and love overly sweet things, if you do not have the same palette then poppi is probably not for you.

  • These are very lightly fizzy, even less so than seltzer water, which I found interesting, because of how quickly it went flat. The apple cider vinegar is detectable in most flavors, but I don't mind it. This does cause a lot of gas/upset, more so than any traditional prebiotic or probiotic I take. I much prefer Olipop.

    Purchased myself.
  • I've tried a handful of different flavors from Poppi and like most of them. I like the nutrition and prebiotics of the soda, and I think they're well-priced for what you get. The root beer flavor is a little too tangy.

  • Yum! Who doesn’t love a healthy soda with good gut bacteria?! The fruity flavors are pretty tasty and satisfies your sweet tooth. Love how there is lower sugar count and so I don’t feel bad drinking it! And you don’t get the sugar crash either

  • I stopped drinking regular and diet sodas years ago when I started removing excess sugar and artificial colors from my diet. I stumbled upon Poppi while shopping at Thrive Market and decided to give it a try. I've tried the orange, strawberry lemonade, and cherry limeade flavors. By far, orange is my favorite. It tastes similar to regular orange soda. I only buy Poppi as an occasional treat because it is on the pricey side.

  • I really enjoyed these!! They are a little tangy and feel like a separate category from normal soda which I appreciate. No funky stomach things after. Cute packaging as well.

  • Love poppi! Great flavors, and I like that this company has turned something neutral into something with a positive health benefit.

  • My husband and I are addicted to Poppi. We used to be big kombucha drinkers but after reading Dr. Greger’s post about people dying after drinking kombucha with high acidity we switched to Poppi. We don’t like all of the flavors — strawberry lemonade is our favorite followed by the rose. I just wish it was more accessible at stores. We’ve purchased it at target and Whole Foods but the packs are so small. Costco carried it at one point and it was great to get such a large pack.

  • Some flavors are better than others, but isn't that life? The strawberry lemonade and orange are my go-to flavors that I keep in stock as much as possible in my fridge. They are a bit sweet but they don't have excessive sugars, and they are good for your gut! Let's just say my stomach looooves these as much as my taste buds. The doc pop is supposed to resemble a regular soda (dr. pepper maybe), and it misses the mark, but I think that's so easy to do when trying to replicate other flavors. I stick to the fruity flavors and love them all.

  • My favorite refreshing alternative to a soda! All of the flavors are tasty. It's sweet but not too sweet and not too healthy tasting.

  • Tastes like really gross soda. I tried mutiple flavors and just could not tolerate the artificial sweetness. They are quite pricey too.

  • This is my favorite flavor, Poppi! It’s so refreshing. This is my go-to drink!

  • The best pre biotic soda. I have tried many different types and this is the only one that tastes similar enough to soda. The Dr Poppi is so similar to Dr Pepper and it has helped me cure my soda addiction. I owe my life to poppi

  • Best soda replacement! It satisfies the craving without the guilt. So yummy!!!

  • One of the first brands of its kind. Innovative, fun packaging, and tasty but functional. Some flavors are better than others (root beer is not my favorite)

  • The best probiotic soda that tastes even better than soda! I love the strawberry lemonade and orange soda

  • Everything about these... 5 stars!! The branding, the mission, the packaging, and the drinks themselves are amazing. These make cutting out regular sodas feel fun and cool, and as someone with a sensitive stomach I find that these make me feel really good lol. Cherry limeade has been my fav so far <3

  • I love Poppi. It’s the perfect soda alternative and has so many good flavors. I wish I could buy them in bulk
