  • 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.

  • I seldom drink real soda these days now that there are so many better options on the market. Poppi is by far one of the most flavorful brands I've tried -- the orange soda is absolutely perfect. I also really like their Dr. Pepper dupe.

  • I’ll admit—I was skeptical at first. When I hear “prebiotic soda,” I don’t exactly expect something that tastes good. But Poppi really surprised me. They’ve found a way to make a healthier soda alternative that actually hits the spot. No, it’s not as sugary as traditional soda, but that’s kind of the point. It’s a great everyday option, especially for families and kids. My go-to flavors are Strawberry Lemon, Lemon Lime, and Root Beer—they’re all legit.

  • I love poppi! The cherry limeade flavor is my personal favorite, but you can't go wrong!

  • I tried the Poppi Root Beer and was pleasantly surprised by the great flavor it had. It so good I tried a couple more of the poppi soda flavors. I haven't replaced all of our soda with poppi only because poppi is more expensive and many times the soda in our house is used as a mixer for cocktail.

  • I started drinking poppi when I wanted to find a better alternative to the sugary drinks I liked and I LOVED IT ! Poppi has a great taste and doesn’t upset my stomach like regular sodas do I don’t ever feel bloated and I personally love the ginger ale 🤤😋

  • A delicious product. I love that it's made with apple cider vinegar. Most of the flavors I've tried are great. The strawberry lemonade, orange, cherry limeade, doc pop are among my favorites. Love that they're stocked at Costco.

  • Poppi is so yummy ! I’m not a fan of all the flavors but I love that they have so many flavors to offer. Gives options for everyone!

  • I love the idea of prebiotic sodas and poppi has some absolutely delicious flavors, but every one in a whole I feel like there’s a bit of an artificial sugar taste. I slightly prefer their competitor brand …

  • Poppi is both flavorful and good for you! My favorite is the orange one. I enjoy it as a healthier alternative to soda. It isn’t quite the same but it is similar enough. Overall i would rate it a ten out of ten.

  • Every time I go grocery shopping I grab a single Poppi as a reward for having to be out peopling. This feels like a little treat and is delicious. My go to is the orange flavor. I don't drink soda but crave something carbonated this is my go to. I would never turn down a Poppi

  • it depends on the flavor you opt for, but personally i like the raspberry rose. it’s an interesting flavor that i haven’t found by any other company. packaging is clean and fun. in terms of health benefits, i’m not totally sure its legit though.

  • For someone who does not like sparkling water or flavoured sparkling water, poppi was very enjoyable. I’ve actually began to start buying the cases and keeping them on hand at all time. They seem to be my go to drink now.

  • I’ve been hearing a lot of buzz about Poppi soda lately, so I decided to try it. Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect because I’ve tried other “healthier” sodas before, and some of them missed the mark for me. But I’m pleasantly surprised by Poppi! First off, it’s got apple cider vinegar in it, which is a big win for me because I love the idea of getting some added health benefits without having to take a shot of the stuff (yikes). It’s also packed with probiotics, so it’s kind of like a gut-health soda. The taste is light and refreshing, and it’s not too sweet – which I appreciate. A lot of healthier sodas lean too hard into the “sweetened with stevia” thing, and it just doesn’t sit well. But Poppi has a more balanced flavor that’s both fruity and tangy without being overwhelming. I’ve tried a few flavors, but my top pick is the Raspberry Lemon. It’s like a fizzy, fruity drink that gives you a little zing without feeling too heavy. It’s a great option for when you want something bubbly and a bit different from your regular soda or sparkling water. Would I buy it again? Absolutely. It’s a nice alternative when I want to treat myself but still stay on the healthier side of things. Plus, the probiotics are a bonus. It’s not going to replace my regular sparkling water obsession, but it's a fun, healthier treat to keep in the rotation. So if you're into trying something that's a little bit different and still good for you, I definitely recommend giving Poppi a shot!

  • Love the flavor. I really hope them selling to Pepsi doesn’t change the ingredients.

  • Title: Refreshing, Delicious, and Gut-Friendly! Review: I’m a big fan of POPPI! Their prebiotic sodas are the perfect balance of flavor and fizz—light, refreshing, and never overly artificial. With just the right amount of carbonation, they satisfy my soda cravings without the guilt. Cherry Limeade and Strawberry Lemonade are my personal favorites, but most of the flavors are a win. If you’re looking for a tasty, gut-healthy alternative to regular soda, POPPI is definitely worth a try!

  • Love, love, love Poppi! The flavors are amazing and I don't feel guilty drinking it because it's so low in sugar but yet tastes just like 'normal' soda. I like that you can buy them as single cans as well as in a multi pack.

  • I am obsessed with Poppi! I love how they have a large range of flavors that are better for me than traditional soda. I have one every day with my lunch and look forward to it! They also make for great mixers and mocktails!

  • I have never been a huge fan of the popular "replacement" drinks for the sugary options in the marketplace...UNTIL NOW. I love the Rose flavor. I tend to steer clear of anything with Stevia Leaf flavoring (just not my favorite) but there is something refreshing (especially with this Rose Flavor) that is having me replace my glass of wine on many occasions. 10/10 recommend trying!

  • This Orange Poppi is a total winner! It’s got that classic orange soda vibe but with a light, refreshing twist. The flavor is tangy, slightly sweet, and super crisp—plus, knowing it’s packed with prebiotics makes it even better. Just the right amount of fizz without being overpowering. Perfect for a guilt-free treat! Definitely stocking up on more.

  • I love poppi drinks with every meal. If I run out I try to find the nearest store that has them. This is the best probiotic I have ever had and it’s healthy which makes it 10 times better. It gives me the satisfaction of believing I’m drinking soda. It also help me and my daughter with our metabolism. Thank youuuuuuuu
