Following the wild success of the 2023 Barbie Movie, the collaborations are still coming, with one of the newest being the Olipop x Barbie Peaches & Cream soda. This nostalgic soda mashes up "maximum flavor and maximalist style" and it's a special treat for fans of the doll's iconic all-pink aesthetic. According to Olipop, its limited-edition soda collab is outselling eggs at Sprouts.
