SodaStream has expanded its range of drink mixes to include 'PEPSI Wild Cherry' and 'PEPSI Zero Sugar Wild Cherry,' allowing consumers to enjoy the popular cola and cherry flavors at home. In addition to enhancing beverage variety, these drink mixes contribute to sustainability efforts by reducing single-use plastic waste.
To meet growing demand, particularly following the success of previous Pepsi drink mixes, SodaStream is reintroducing its 'Flavor Reservation' platform. This initiative allows customers to "reserve their bottles in advance, ensuring the availability of the highly anticipated flavors."
For those interested in early access, "pre-registration for access codes begins on January 22, with pre-orders officially opening on January 27; additionally, all early orders will include complimentary shipping." For those who do not participate in the pre-order phase, PEPSI Wild Cherry and PEPSI Zero Sugar Wild Cherry drink mixes will be available nationwide in the United States starting January 30.
