The better-for-you soda beverage boasts a base of sparkling filtered water, apple cider vinegar, watermelon juice and lemon juice, as well as organic cane sugar, natural flavors and stevia for a hint of all-natural sweetness. Poppi Watermelon is lightly carbonated and contains just 20 calories and five grams of sugar. Per serving, there's a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, which is revered for its whole-body health benefits. While there are many [apple cider vinegar drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bloom-pop) that offer simular benefits, they are overwhelming to consumers who are put off by the strong taste and smell. Poppi offers a clean, fresh and flavorful experience that's just as beneficial as ever. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 39% | Activity: 56% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Prebiotic Beverages:** An opportunity to develop prebiotic beverages that support digestive health. - **Functional Sodas:** An opportunity to create healthier sodas by incorporating functional ingredients. - **Natural Sweeteners:** An opportunity to use natural sweeteners like stevia in soda beverages. ### Where This Applies - **Beverage Industry:** The beverage industry can incorporate prebiotic and functional ingredients to create healthier soda options. - **Health Food Industry:** The health food industry can expand their product lines to include prebiotic and functional beverages. - **Sweeteners Industry:** The sweeteners industry can focus on the production and research of natural sweeteners like stevia to meet the growing demand for healthier soda options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Juice Brand Prebiotic Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poppi-sodas.md) - [Summertime Digestive Health Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olipop-watermelon-lime.md) - [Prebiotic Cherry Colas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poppi-cherry-cola.md) - [Summery Prebiotic Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poppi-punch-pop.md) - [Pre-Biotic Berry Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poppiwild-berry.md) - [Seasonal Prebiotic Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poppis-cranberry-fizz.md) - [Prebiotic Ginger Ale-Inspired Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poppi-ginger-fizz.md) - [Flavorful Prebiotic Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lively-prebiotic-pops.md) - [Gut-Friendly Grape Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poppi-grape-soda.md)
