With summer almost here, now is the perfect time to pick up a case of Pepsi's fruity new offering: Pineapple Pepsi. Originally released in Japan back in 2019, now the tropical fruit soda is making its way stateside.
For the past few years, Pepsi has been experimenting with a number of different fruit-flavored sodas, including cherry, berry, lime, and mango flavors. Now, Pineapple Pepsi is the latest flavor to hit the market and can now be found exclusively at Walmart locations across the US.
As far as the taste, Pineapple Pepsi is described as "Pepsi with a splash of pineapple juice and other natural flavors." This gives the classic soda a tropical twist that's perfect for hot summer days. It also makes a great option for those who prefer their drinks on the fruity side.
