Poppi Doc Pop 12 fl oz
Poppi Doc Pop in the 12 fl oz (355ml) can is a functional, "better-for-you" take on the classic, spicy cherry-cola flavor profile. Designed as a prebiotic soda, it aims to provide the nostalgic taste of a "Doctor" style soft drink while incorporating ingredients that support gut health.
Core Ingredients
The formula is built to deliver a complex flavor without the high sugar content of traditional sodas:
-
Sparkling Filtered Water: The carbonated base that provides a crisp, bubbly mouthfeel.
-
Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV): Each can contains roughly one tablespoon of ACV, which is filtered to provide health benefits while minimizing the vinegary aftertaste.
-
Agave Inulin: A prebiotic fiber sourced from the agave plant, included to help "feed" beneficial gut bacteria.
-
Fruit Juices: Uses a blend of lemon and other fruit concentrates to provide natural acidity and depth.
-
Natural Flavors: A proprietary blend of spices, cherry, and vanilla notes that replicate the distinct "Doc" taste.
-
Natural Sweeteners: Sweetened with a combination of Cane Sugar and Stevia Leaf Extract to maintain a full flavor with fewer calories.
