Although classic root beer tends to be sweet but not overly sugary, many people are swapping their favorite kinds of soda for better-for-you versions of the product with formulas that are full of natural ingredients. Olipop is adding to its range of clinically backed consumer beverages with an all-new Classic Root Beer flavor of its own that boasts benefits for the microbiome, digestive function and metabolic health.
The prebiotic tonic is said to have "a classic bite with a creamy sweetness" from botanically driven ingredients like sweet birch, vanilla bean and naturally sourced burdock root. In comparison to other kinds of root beer on the market, Olipop's newest canned beverage is rich in fiber and low in calories, sugar and net carbs.
