Prebiotic soda maker Olipop is set to cross $200 million in annual sales this year, just five years after it arrived on grocery store shelves. Founder and CEO Ben Goodwin said beverage giants PepsiCo and Coca-Cola have already come knocking. Olipop presents itself as a healthier alternative to traditional soda but with the same familiar taste. The startup's formula includes nine grams of fiber and prebiotics, which are substances that help beneficial bacteria grow in the gut. Despite its success, Olipop is still in the early stages of growth, with a retail footprint of just 20,000 locations and only 12 flavors.
The "sleepy girl mocktail" recipe, which includes pure tart cherry juice and magnesium powder, has gone viral on TikTok for its supposed sleep-inducing properties. Tart cherry juice contains melatonin, which induces drowsiness, and magnesium promotes relaxation and regulates melatonin. However, prebiotic soda, which is included in the original recipe, can cause digestive discomforts. The drink may not be suitable for those with chronic medical conditions or those being treated for a medical condition. Other dietary changes, such as limiting caffeine and sugar intake and increasing plant-based foods, can also promote better sleep.
