The satisfaction of a soda, all the benefits of a medicine drawer and no B.S….or, to save some breath, *add to cart*

What I described above is a Poppi Prebiotic soda, also known as my greatest discovery from Summer 2022. Marketed as “your new BFF” this soda will truly deliver you all the same essentials as a good friend- support, nourishment, flavor and no drama in sight!

What drew me to this soda, beautiful packaging already accounted for, was the buzz around its ability to imitate some of the cult favorite sodas, such as Doctor Pepper and Diet Coke, with resounding accuracy. As a lover of Sprite but critic of the nutrition label, I tried Poppi’s Ginger Lime flavor and was pleasantly surprised by the taste as well as the health benefits that followed.

With the goal from Poppi founder Allison Ellsworth to make apple cider vinegar (ACV) palatable, this soda is the perfect disguise for a delicious yet healthy drink. Poppi traded the chemicals and empty calories that are found in traditional soda for ACV, natural sweeteners and fresh fruit. To better understand the value of this tradeoff, let’s break down some of the components that makes Poppi pop.
