our story

the future of soda is now

once upon a time in Texas...

Long before the rebrand, Co-Founder Allison Ellsworth was refining a drink one batch at a time. Her 2015 workspace was a Dallas kitchen; her building blocks were fruit juices, prebiotics and sparkling water.

She carried those bottles into a local farmers' market and listened to real reactions. The moment a Whole Foods buyer found the drink, that close-to-home testing ground became a bridge outward.

Allison's husband, Stephen, joined her for the Shark Tank chapter. Their 2018 deal with Rohan Oza was followed by a high-color reimagining, and the name poppi took its place.

In 2025, poppi became part of the PepsiCo family. From fruity notes to classic profiles, the range expresses “the freedom to love soda again.”
