Alongside refreshing flavors like Fruit Punch, Tropical Citrus, and Blood Orange Yuzu, mood-boosting soda brand Perfy dropped a limited-edition Pepperoni Pizza Soda variety.
While pizza is highly beloved as a comfort food, this unconventional fizzy drink flavor brings a familiar experience to a different format. Simple ingredients go into creating this flavor: water, tomato concentrate, natural flavors, sea salt, and citric acid, plus monk fruit and stevia for a touch of sweetness. For those who are wary about sipping this savory flavor on its own, using it as a mixer may provide a more enticing option.
Perfy's blood sugar-friendly soda, caffeine-free sodas are packed with nootropics and adaptogens and contain nothing artificial in their formulas. This guilt-free treat boasts just three grams of sugar and 30 calories.
