Healthy Sodas Like Poppi, Olipop Are Drawing PepsiCo's and Coca-Cola's Attention
If you're the type of person who enjoys a cold, fizzy beverage, and you're also the type of person who—at least in theory—wants to live a moderately healthier lifestyle, this is your golden age.
When you're in the mood for a can of Coke, but not its 39 grams of sugar, stop in at a 7-Eleven and grab a Poppi Classic Cola, made with organic apple cider vinegar, prebiotics and only 5 grams of sugar. Looking for something fruity? Head to your local Starbucks and swap out the 16 grams of sugar in its tall strawberry acai refresher for a Classic Grape Olipop, which has only 4 grams of sugar and boasts prebiotics, botanicals and plant fiber too. If you want to drown in choice, go to Whole Foods—in addition to Poppi and Olipop, it stocks SunSip, Wildwonder, Cove, Nixie, Zevia, Culture Pop Soda and its own 365 brand of zero-calorie cola.
