Favortive Day Orange Splash Soda
This was surprisingly good. I wasn’t expecting it to be too sweet though considering it only has 3g of sugar. Probably too much stevia for my liking but still a nice orange bev — I’d prefer this 10x over Sunkist. Not the same quality in ingredients as other drinks like Poppi or Olipop but it’s a good orange soda alternative. Btw Favorite day is a Target owned brand, cute packaging and good prices too!

Olipop Barbie Edition Peaches and Cream
Sweet, bubbly and iconically peachy. Sweet, not too sweet but sweeter than the other flavors. Refreshing. Cream sometimes gives a bubblegum flavor. Only con is I was expecting more peach flavor only reason why it gets .5 less rating otherwise it’s great! Hopefully it becomes a permanent flavor.

Aura Bora Herbal Sparkling Water, Lavender Cucumber
I am always drawn to lavender whether that is in skincare or my latte so I had a good feeling about this one. Although I wasn’t sure about the lavender and cucumber combo - it turned out to be so good! Best of all is that it’s refreshing, sugar-free, and very simple with its ingredients (only 3 - carbonated water, natural cucumber flavor, lavender flower extract). Also really cute packaging! Interested in trying out their other flavors.

Poppi, Lime Lemon Prebiotic Soda
It’s similar to Starry soda and Sprite but stronger lime taste. I liked it but wouldn’t say it is my favorite Poppi flavor. It’s refreshing and low on sugar at only 3g.

De La Calle Tepache Ginger Manzana Fermented Drink
The ginger in this drink is strong but there’s also an underlying black pepper taste that also blends in and I did not like that very much. Might be better without it?
3.0/5.0
wildwonder Sparkling Drink, Peach Ginger
Though ginger is the first listed ingredient, I didn't find the drink to have as strong of a ginger flavor as I'd actually prefer. Even though it contains a mix of fruits (including peach puree and juice, and monk fruit), only 7% of the drink is juice. I did like the peachiness but there’s like something missing here.
3.5/5.0
CHA Tangerine White Tea Sparkling Drink
The only thing I wish this drink had was more tangerine, citrusy flavor other than that it’s a high top 4.5 for me. The ingredients are clean, organic, refreshing, I can see myself drinking this more often. I love a good alternative prebiotic healthy soda. Oh did I mention it only has 2g of sugar? Also the packaging is uber cute.

wildwonder Sparkling Drink, Rose Guava
This drink is delicious! I love love anything with guava in it and you can definitely taste it in this bev. One sip of this dreamy pink drink will transport you to your favorite beach holiday destination, with an extra dose of immune-boosting elderberry to support all your “travels.” It’s filled with prebiotics, probiotics, fiber and just has 6g of sugar! They also come in other flavors like Peach Ginger, Pineapple Paradise, and Strawberry Passion which I’m looking forward to try.
5.0/5.0
OhFresh Lychee Juice
It’s OK, not bad but not good either. It’s too sweet, but you can taste the Lychee and it does have Lychee pulp. But I’m not a fan of the quality of the ingredients. Not sure why a drink like this has salt? My fault for noticing after, probably not something I would buy again. I like the Lychee but that’s about it.

Perfy Tropical Citrus Superfood Soda
Great flavor, minimal and clean ingredients. It's a perfect balance of health and taste, with real fruit juice and a natural sweetener blend giving it the nostalgic taste of traditional sodas, but with a modern, healthy twist. Pretty shocking that it’s only 20 calories!
4.5/5.0
De La Calle Tepache Hibiscus Citrus Jamaica Fermented Drink
The hibiscus and citrus is a really nice combination. Fresh, floral and tart hibiscus along balanced citrus notes. This bev features a fermented pineapple base and is full of flavor while low on calories and sugar. De La Calle's recipes are made with fresh organic ingredients as well as spices and aromatics found throughout Mexico, every flavor takes a modern twist to nostalgic combinations. Similar to kombucha but smoother.

Halfday Lemon Iced Tea
Ever had Arizona Iced Tea? Yea, this is reminiscent of that drink but better and healthier with benefits. Halfday’s Iced Teas are full of prebiotics and contain way less sugar. They’re better for you and good for your gut. I like it a lot, and highly recommend it. It was love at first sip.
4.5/5.0
Kimino Yuzu Sparkling Juice
My go to when I stop by Whole Foods and I’m craving a citrusy sparkling drink. This small Yuzu drink is sure to quench your thirst, the added sparkling gives the ultimate touch. There are other flavors such as Mikan, Ume, and Ringo but this one is the favorite.
4.5/5.0
Olipop Ginger Ale Prebiotic Soda
This taste nice and I would have it again. Only thing is it doesn’t really taste like a ginger ale, it taste like a ginger drink but the ginger flavor is not too strong. Maybe is just my taste buds but still a pretty good refreshing drink.
4.0/5.0
Gunna Pink Punk Raspberry Lemonade
I spotted this at a local supermarket for its interesting packaging and also raspberry lemonade flavor. It was nice and refreshing, it does have a nice raspberry punch but couldn’t really taste the lemonade much. Also not sure if it was my drink in particular but it had a weird metal after taste so for that I was turned off. The sparkling at first is nice and it has a good amount of sweetness. It’s basically a soda with vitamins and minerals but was not happy with the after taste.

Chiki Chiki Boom Boom - Apple + Pear
Chiki Chiki Boom Boom is a plant-based punch inspired by an ancient Ecuadorian recipe made from floral and herbal superfoods. It contains alkaline water, apples, pears, and Chiki's own organic antioxidant blend. It’s not really sweet, at only 3g of sugar. At first it didn’t give me any delightful impression but as I kept drinking and reading its ingredients, I felt like it would be something good for me. Taste wise is not the best to me but quality seems healthy and alright. Kind of just taste like water with some flavor.
2.5/5.0
Health-Ade Strawberry Vanilla Prebiotic Soda
Not too sweet, has a great flavor almost like strawberry candy. Delicious, tastes indulgent, like a childhood treat! It’s the perfect refreshing, summer drink and even better that is good for your gut! Like they say “You can do it, put your gut into it.”
4.5/5.0
bubly Lemon Sorbet Sparkling Water
Refreshing, kind of does taste like a lemon sorbet. I love lemon so I might be biased but it’s pretty good stuff. Contains no sugar so it’s not that sweet.
4.0/5.0
Poppi, Raspberry Rose Prebiotic Soda
Poppi combines fresh fruit juice with the prebiotic powerhouse apple cider vinegar (ACV) to create a modern soda that tastes amazing and helps you maintain a happy gut. All of Poppi drinks have health & Immunity Benefits, cause let’s be honest, soda is delicious. But most are loaded with empty calories and chemicals. These aren’t. Plus look at this cute packaging!
4/5/5.0
Poppi, Classic Cola Prebiotic Soda
My favorite out of all Poppi flavors, hands down. I would say even better than actual cola but don’t quote me until you try it. Can’t beat that it also has prebiotics. For a healthy gut. Be gut happy. Be gut healthy. Pop, cultured. No one wants a basic drink! So make every happy hour count with this bubbly awesomeness. The functional prebiotic soda for all!

TÖST Sparkling Non-Alcoholic Wine
TÖST isn't overly sweet. When you open a bottle, you're greeted by a subtle effervescence and hints of crisp citrus with a refreshingly dry finish. You can’t go wrong with neither of their two flavor options (other one is Rose) but this one right here, is the classic winner. Nothing but all natural ingredients and extracts. Sparkling white tea, cranberry and ginger, delicious.
5.0/5.0
TÖST Sparkling Non-Alcoholic Wine, ROSÉ
Sparkling white tea, cranberry and ginger wine with a splash of Rose. Perfect for a picnic, celebration, summer festivities anything that calls for a glass of Rose, except better for you because it’s non-alcoholic.
4.5/5.0
SZZL Sparkling, Peach Iced Tea
With so many sparkling drinks out there is kind of hard to see the differences in each. However, some do stand out more than others. This one in particular has a unique spin because it’s a sparkling drink but also an iced tea. It has a slight resemblance to Snapple’s Iced Tea but healthier? It has no artificial flavors, low sugar (just a tiny bit of sweetness), and low calories. I don't hate it but I also didn’t love it. It’s one of those things you’ll need to try again to really know. It truly is refreshing though!
3.5/5.0
Moshi Yuzu White Peach Sparkling Drink
Love love love this!! This will most likely be my go to summer drink. It is so refreshing and the Yuzu combination with peach is just perfect. Yuzu is a type of citrus fruit native to East Asia particularly Japan and it is one of my favorite flavors in the whole world. I can’t wait to try out the other flavors. You defintely should too!

NOPE Beverages Raspberry Lime Ginger Beer
Found this drink by accident. Never heard of it before but the taste notes convinced me to try it. It did not disappoint, this is like a mix of a sparkling drink but also kind of like a kombucha. It has an invigorating fusion of sweet juicy raspberries, freshly squeezed lime, and a bold ginger finish. No unrecognizable ingredients on the labels so that’s a plus.
4.0/5.0
Figlia, Fiore Apertivo
Figlia is a non-alcoholic drink blended with filtered water, rose extract, ginger juice and more to enjoy at your leisure without even a possibility of a hangover. Despite being made from all-natural ingredients, it has a very distinct taste from the start. It does start off bitter, but then its rose, orange and clove backgrounds sneak up on you, rounding it out. I had this for my birthday and enjoyed it on its own with ice cubes but feel free to mix, like with club soda? your choice. This can be found at Boisson in NY.

Belvoir Fruit Farms Natural Elderflower & Rose Lemonade
Almost perfect, just wish it wasn’t too sweet. It’s also quite expensive for its size. Usually available at Whole Foods Market. It definitely has a great crisp flavor of elderflower with a hint of rose. It is a very light refreshing floral drink, perfect to take on outdoor activities.
4.5/5.0
Ghia Le Spritz Soda
I love trying new beverages and you might think if these are even considered snacks? And yes I quite do. Especially when the ingredients are enough to fulfill the thirst. I am always seeking out new flavors so when I find a drink that's especially good, intriguing, unique - it makes it even more exciting for me. This soda has an impeccable mix of ingredients including grape juice, yuzu, and fig combined with orange peel, ginger, and elderflower. A real drink is made of real ingredients! Giving it a nice spice and making it remarkably potent. Found it at Boisson in NYC. “Crack it open, turn on the music, taste the bite, enjoy the night.”

Olipop Lemon Lime Prebiotic Soda
Like a sweet key lime pie with a fresh squeeze of lemon, this thirst-quenching soda is refreshing. Like a mix of up and Sprite but better and healthier. Lime might be too strong for my liking.
3.5/5.0
Olipop Banana Cream Prebiotic Soda
I’m not going to lie but I was hesitant about this one. But that bright yellow color from like 10 feet away really intrigued me. This was a flavor unlike any other I’ve tasted in a drink and this surprisingly delightful soda melds creamy vanilla and sweet banana together for a taste best described as banana cream pie in a can. This flavor gave me a nostalgic vibe. Ever had Wonka Runts? The banana shaped hard candy within the mix, there it is!
4.0/5.0
Culture POP Probiotic Soda, Strawberry & Rhubarb
It’s a nice refreshing flavor. The essence of strawberry is the most noticeable, not sure about the rhubarb. I actually like that is also not too sweet. FYI - supports gastrointestinal health without spiking your blood sugar.
3.0/5.0
Ruby Hibiscus Water
I wanted to try a new sparkling drink, since I always opt for Olipop and Poppi. Let’s just say I should’ve sticked to what I know. Couldn’t really taste the hibiscus in this drink. The packaging looks better than what it taste. I still finished the drink because #nowaste. Would I have it again? Maybe, it wasn’t terrible. Would I buy it again? probably not. To be fair, it was unsweetened so that might explain the blandness.
2.5/5.0
Olipop Vintage Cola Prebiotic Soda
This is the best alternative I’ve found to Coca Cola! Vintage Cola has the same old-fashioned taste you grew up loving but naturally enhanced with distinct notes of vanilla, cinnamon, and caramel.
4.5/5.0
Poppi Orange Prebiotic Soda
I want to say it's kind of like Sunset but is not. But it's not bad at all. I think I prefer Olipop's Orange squeeze though or Orange Cream! yum.
