What is Olipop?
Olipop launched in 2018 as an alternative to regular soda. The functional beverage was formulated by the brand's CEO, Ben Goodwin, and a group of scientists to create a flavorful soda that supports digestive health. Today, Olipop flavors include Vintage Cola, Classic Root Beer, Lemon Lime, Strawberry Vanilla, Watermelon Lime, Tropical Punch, Ginger Ale, and more. Olipop is non-GMO, paleo, vegan, and gluten-free. Each can of Olipop has nine grams of fiber, two to five grams of sugar, and is packed with prebiotics and plant-based fiber for supreme digestive health.
Does Olipop soda have caffeine?
Some Olipop flavors have caffeine. Right now, the only Olipop flavors that contain caffeine are Vintage Cola, Cherry Cola, and Dr. Goodwin. The rest are caffeine-free! The caffeine in those three Olipop flavors consists of 50mg of caffeine derived from green tea extract.

Joshua Jackson Talks Getting 'Off My High Horse' Over Surprising Personal Preference (Exclusive)
Joshua Jackson Talks Getting 'Off My High Horse' Over Surprising Personal Preference (Exclusive) originally appeared on Parade. It takes a lot to alter a stringently held opinion, but not only kept an open mind after many years, he's happy to admit that he was wrong. The Doctor Odyssey star sat down with Parade to chat about his new partnership with Olipop, a prebiotic drink that was formulated as a healthier alternative to typical sodas, and admitted that through their work together, he's "come down off [his] high horse" when it comes to one particular flavor. After giving up soda, a choice that was "purely health-based" after looking at the "amount of sugar [and] the additives [and] dyes" that can be found in a typical pop—"stuff [he] didn't want to put into [his] body"—he always "really missed" Dr Pepper. When he found Olipop's Doctor Goodwin flavor, it was a delightful revelation that "you can actually still enjoy this thing without getting all that bad stuff in your body," but it also led to the realization that, after years of maintaining a strict anti-cherry cola attitude, it's actually quite good. "I've had to come down off my high horse," he admits. "I have discovered this summer through Olipop that I actually love cherry cola, so that's now my solid number two." However, for anyone who might have the "assumption that it won't be as good as the original," he also recommends the brand's Orange Cream flavor, which he calls "legitimately excellent." As part of their partnership, Jackson shot a video ad inspired by the iconic, celebrity-driven drink ads of the '90s. While he can't quite remember which brand or star made such an impression on him, he knew he "wanted to see if [he] was cool enough to be able to open the can with one hand" as someone else once did on TV. "And it turns out, I am," he adds. "I was very proud of myself." Working on the campaign also left him thinking about a signature flavor he could create for himself, admitting, when asked, that he had been "a little stressed out about" getting the question. In the end, though, he came up with "a really good one:" a 7Up or Sprite-style beverage, flavored with a "super tart lemon lime" base named "The Spinal Tap," which is "based upon Dr. Death." He later joked, "We're heavily Dr. Death-themed," as he named his character, and the real-life inspiration for the Peacock series, Christopher Duntsch, as the one of his former characters who "for sure would be a master villain" if any of them could have joined the Fringe universe. Meanwhile, Luke, his character in the 2000 film The Skulls, would have made the most seamless fit on the team of scientists and federal investigators. "He was kind of paranoid and also a little naive, which I think you need to be as part of the Fringe team," Jackson explains. Finally, he says none other than Doctor Odyssey's Dr. Bankman would be the best equipped to crack any of their cases, thanks to being a "very good clinical thinker" who "thinks outside the box."Joshua Jackson Talks Getting 'Off My High Horse' Over Surprising Personal Preference (Exclusive) first appeared on Parade on Jul 18, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jul 18, 2025, where it first appeared.

The Genius McDonald's Drive-Thru Hack We Wish We'd Known About Sooner
The Genius McDonald's Drive-Thru Hack We Wish We'd Known About Sooner originally appeared on Parade. These days, a quick zip through the drive-thru can easily run you $30, especially if you've got a kid or two in tow. But beyond that, if you're eating on the go, there's a whole other problem to contend with—the mess. Napkins slide between seats, fries fall into unreachable crevices, and someone always ends up with ketchup on their shirt or the door handle. So when I saw content creator Lora (@lorafied) share her McDonald's drive-thru hacks for eating on the road without turning your car into a disaster zone, I was in. As someone who practically lives in the car between errands, work and chauffeuring kids, I needed these tips! But one really stood out to me because it's a genius way to eat some of your favorite fast food items without juggling everything on your lap. It's so easy, I can't believe more people don't know about it. Related: 😋😋 SIGN UP to get delicious recipes, handy kitchen hacks & more in our daily Pop Kitchen newsletter. 🍳🍔 In the video, Lora says she eats on the run at least once a week, and her kids are munching in the backseat almost daily. If you can relate (I know I can), her hack is going to be a lifesaver. Lora's most genius fast food trick, which she credits to her daughter, balances convenience with practicality, especially when it comes to eating nuggets on the go. In her video, she takes the McDonald's nugget container and places it right on top of her drink cup, threading the straw through the slot in the nugget box lid. It fits perfectly, holding the container steady while giving her one-handed access to the nuggets inside. No more juggling food in your lap or trying to unwrap things while steering—this method keeps your meal in place and your focus on the road. It's such a small detail, but it solves a major drive-thru pain point. The nugget box doesn't slide around, your sauce stays nearby, and the whole setup becomes its own little fast food tray right in your cupholder. This trick turns any car into a functional (and far less messy) dining space. As Lora proves, a little clever thinking goes a long way in making everyday chaos just a bit more manageable. Related: Another clever fast food hack Lora shared in the video involves swapping out some serving containers. When you're ordering, instead of getting fries and/or nuggets in the standard boxes, ask if they can be served in a large cup. Instead of figuring out where to balance the nugget box or the fry container, all you have to do is put the cups in the cupholder, making it safer and easier to eat on the go. Plus, it saves you from having to dig through a bag or worrying about your food tipping over. The cup contains everything in one neat space, and because it's deep, nothing spills out. Nuggets and fries stay upright, crispy and within arm's reach. With Lora's method, your car stays cleaner, your food stays more manageable and your sanity stays intact. Whether you're grabbing a burger between meetings or passing out Happy Meals to a car full of kids, Lora's drive-thru hacks are one of those small, smart ideas that make a huge difference. They keep things clean and simple, and once you try them, you'll wonder how you ever lived without them.

We, As Kitsch-Lovers, Approve of OLIPOP's New Retro-Cool Hotel Rooms
Leave it to a soda brand to bring me the kitsch hotel stay of my dreams. OLIPOP — as in, yes, the prebiotic soda company that has us addicted to its gut-friendly facsimiles for root beer, cream soda, and Hawaiian Punch — has decided to enter the world of unique hotel stays by launching a series of retro-inspired, themed, ephemeral hotel rooms in Austin, Texas. And as my coworker and I confirmed to one another on Slack, 'the rooms are actually so cute.' Feast your eyes on my personal favorite, crowned the 2002 Cherry Cola Suite: It feels like no collaboration is off-limits in this new era of chaos marketing (see: the new Tresemmé hot sauce), and while a lot of these food collaborations balloon into surrealist territory that steers them away from brand authenticity, I'm absolutely here for the fantasy that OLIPOP is pitching us, which is that of a 'Time Travel Agency' takeover of the Austin Motel from June 24 to July 8. As OLIPOP explains, 'guests can enter for a chance to win one of three immersive, soda-inspired suites [that bring] an OLIPOP flavor to life through the lens of a different decade.' In addition to the Cherry Cola Suite, there will also be a 1986 Cream Soda Suite decked out in pastel stripes, neon lights, and retro arcade details… … As well as the 1995 Strawberry Vanilla Suite, which pays homage to OLIPOP's (honestly very taste) Strawberry Vanilla prebiotic soda, and is described by the company as having 'all-pink everything and '90s maximalism at its finest.' All of the rooms feel inspired by theatrically decorated, vintage-inspired hotels and motels like the iconic The Madonna Inn (as seen in many a photo shoot and music video), upstate New York's The Roxbury (known for its coconut-cream-pie-themed room), and the numerous themed couples' hotels in the Poconos. Over the years, Airbnb and other brands have offered elaborate, raffle-based themed hotel stays — often, to promote the likes of Hocus Pocus 2 or Shrek (the latter of which had an incredible swamp set-up), so it's actually nice to see another company throw its vacation hat into the ring in a way that doesn't feel haphazardly inauthentic. It has also been a big year for soda, from the 'dirty' concoctions of Mormon wives to Addison Rae's earworm 'Diet Pepsi' — which evokes a smart branding nod to Britney Spears' 2000s partnership with the company (even if Spears was adamant about not drinking diet Pepsi, 'just regular Pepsi'). In any case, I will absolutely co-sign the creation of more kitsch hotel rooms, particularly when it feels like America's own retro love hotels are increasingly going out of business. Will OLIPOP continue to dip its toes into more experimental — and experiential — marketing techniques à la Liquid Death? Time will tell if the company veers into similar shock marketing territory, but I hope it stays the course of curating activations with identity coherency. Oh, and shag rugs.
