    Tried Olipop, and it was expensive. Hated it. Barfville, USA. Did I mention I didn't like it? Some might like it though. 

    The orange wasn't terrible though. All the rest were too heavy with ginger taste or some oddball flavor perhaps from a giant's toe-jam.

    I guess you really didn't like it...lol.  I hadn't tried it before because it's fizzy.  Oh and I don't like funky weird flavors either....so I get that too.  Products high in ginger are like cinnamon to me.  Too much of either are too "warming" and sometimes irritating.

    I've tried Olipop, and enjoy it as a treat from time to time. I appreciate the fact they use actual fruit juices in it rather then relying solely on artificial/natural flavoring, and other synthetic chemicals. Though, they do still use natural flavoring, and I wish it didn't have that in the ingredients. I also like the macronutrient profile on the product, if I want to have something with a small amount of sugar and not with artificial sweeteners such as sucralose or aspartame, and also not with natural sweeteners such as stevia, erythritol, etc., this product allows me to do that without the typical 32ish grams of sugar per can of typical soda, and instead with around 5 grams of sugar. I like certain flavors more than others, with the Strawberry Vanilla, Cherry Vanilla, and Vintage Cola being my favorite three I've tried.

     
    I believe the primary point of this product is to deliver a light sparkling drink, but with an assorted profile of liquified fibers, that will help aid your digestion without you actually feeling like your consuming fiber. I don't buy it often, as especially for the price I don't view it as a necessity in my diet for health. Though, as I mentioned, I enjoy it occasionally as a treat.
