Think of this as your go-to guide for sipping smarter.
What’s the difference between BeePop and soda?
While most sodas use artificial sweeteners as a base, BeePop blends fermented green tea with real fruit juice and US-sourced honey to create a new category of bubbly beverages. See Our Science (link) to learn more.
Does BeePop use artificial ingredients?
No. BeePop does not use any artificial ingredients or ultra-processed sweeteners (like stevia or monk fruit). Instead, we use real honey and fruit juice to naturally sweeten our sparkling beverage, built on a fermented green tea base for a more balanced, health-conscious drink.
Is this kombucha?
BeePop is made using a similar fermentation process to kombucha, but our formula is lighter and naturally sweeter than a standard kombucha. See Our Process (link) for more information about how BeePop is made.
How much sugar does BeePop have?
Using honey as a sweetener, BeePop contains 7g of naturally occurring sugars and 2g of prebiotic fiber, which may support a more balanced glycemic response.
What fiber sources are in BeePop?
There are 2g of Arrabina fiber, a wheat-based prebiotic fiber, in every can of BeePop. This prebiotic fiber helps nourish beneficial gut bacteria and supports digestive health.
Is BeePop caffeinated?
Yes. Each can of BeePop contains 9 or 10 mg of caffeine, naturally occurring from our brewed green tea. That, combined with the properties that support a healthy glycemic response, makes BeePop a natural source of energy during your midday slump.
Is BeePop kid-friendly?
For children one year and above, BeePop is an excellent soda alternative. It contains less sugar and caffeine than a typical soda and is more comparable to sparkling water.
What are prebiotics and postbiotics?
Prebiotics: The "Fertilizer"- Prebiotics are not alive. They are specialized plant fibers that act as food for the good bacteria already living in your gut. Postbiotics: The "Output"- They do the actual heavy lifting for your immune system and gut lining. Instead of waiting for bacteria to make them, you can ingest them directly.
Is honey better than refined sugar?
Yes. Honey is considered a healthier alternative to refined sugar because it’s full of antioxidants and has a lower impact on blood sugar.

What are the benefits of green tea in BeePop?
Green tea naturally contains polyphenols, including catechins, which have been known to help support overall wellness. In BeePop, green tea provides a gentle source of caffeine along with antioxidant compounds.
