Here's why I started another beverage brand twenty years after starting my first one. I'm Tom, founder of Culture Pop Soda. You might remember me from cofounding Nantucket Nectars back in the nineties. Since Nantucket Nectars, I've spent the last decade researching and investing in food and beverage companies, but I couldn't ignore the gap in the industry any longer. There wasn't a soda on the shelf that was made with simple, honest ingredients made without refined sugars or sweeteners or stevia or artificial sweeteners that also tier good. It was actually good for your gut. Soda was originally created to be a health tonic made with fruit juice, herbs, and spices, so I decided to try to bring soda back to its roots. I started creating flavors in my kitchen, fruit juices and spices, and in my pantry, CulturePop soda was born. Each flavor of CulturePop is thoughtfully crafted. It flavors like orange, mango, and lime. It has a hint of chili powder, ginger, lemon, and turmeric, strawberry rhubarb with a touch of cardamom, and black cherry, which also has some cacao in it. CulturePop is made with real organic fruit juice, herbs and spices, and a live probiotic. The strain is clinically studied to improve digestion. Finally, there's a soda you can actually feel good about, one you can enjoy multiple times a day if you want. It's refreshing after a workout. It's great with a mocktail, and it actually supports your gut. If you haven't tried CulturePop already, what are you waiting for? Follow the CulturePop story with us.
