As eye-catching “better-for-you” sodas reignite the cola wars, PLANT POP® is rewriting the script. It’s everything we loved about soda—refreshing and enjoyable—only now powered by plants your body craves. So, it must taste like lawn clippings? Don’t bet on it! Just bold and bubbly, clean, delicious, soulfully functional soda with purpose. No sugar. No caffeine. No medicinal aftertaste. No regrets.
PLANT POP® was created to bring joy of refreshment back to the beverage aisle without sacrificing wellness. This isn’t a one-dimensional beverage. This is a multi-function-forward soda that meets people where they are—across age, lifestyle, and dietary needs. Because once you know better, you want to drink better.
We’re proud to be part of a growing wave of consumers who are rethinking what goes into their bodies—and what we offer the next generation. While most brands are still chasing the fiber-and-fizz trend, Plant Pop® was built to go deeper. Today’s families face a wider spectrum of wellness needs: yes, gut health, but also stress, fatigue, mood, immunity, and cellular function.
PLANT POP® not only works for you on a cellular level, it delivers on taste! Because let’s be honest: no one wants to sip a bottle of vitamins—or hand their child something that tastes like medicine. This isn’t another niche wellness drink made just for fitness fans or cafes. PLANT POP® is a guilt-free soda your entire family could enjoy. One that satisfies nostalgia, tastes amazing, and supports real health.
PLANT POP® isn’t a bandwagon brand chasing the current “wellness” soda trend. It’s a redefinition of the entire soda category—proof that health-forward beverages can deliver flavor, fun, and full-spectrum function. This is soda that works with your body! Where other functional sodas stop at prebiotics, PLANT POP® takes a holistic approach—meaning “as a whole”—addressing a multitude of daily symptoms at the root cause, fatigue at the cellular level, lack of focus, digestion, stress, mood and immunity in every drink.
THE KEY?
A proprietary blend of clinically backed botanicals and bio-actives known as the Plant Pop 5 (PP5): Together, they form a functional holistic base that’s GRAS-certified, and effective—without ever compromising on taste. Every ingredient was chosen not only for its function, but for how it fits into daily life. This is wellness without compromise—and refreshment without regret.
Soda is woven into our culture—timeless, nostalgic, and deeply personal. It’s more than just a drink. It’s Friday night pizza. It’s the fizz at a school dance. It’s backyard barbecues, birthday parties, and after-school treats. But somewhere along the way, soda stopped evolving with us. It became stuck in a different time— one that didn’t account for how we live, eat, and care for ourselves today. Instead of offering better choices, it’s offered bigger cans, louder labels, and more ways to mask the same old problem: empty indulgence. A crash in a can. A sugar bomb wrapped in nostalgia. It’s time for a sparkling feel-good refreshment made for the way we live today. Because the memories should stay, the junk should go, and the things we love shouldn’t come with regret, they should be celebrated.
PLANT POP® was created for mindful consumers, parents seeking better choices, label readers and people of all ages who believe what goes into the body should reflect the values they’re building a life around. Because the joy of soda should never come with a compromise. The best products don’t chase trends—they solve real needs. From the very beginning, this wasn’t a product pitch—it was a company’s personal pledge. A soda built with trust, crafted for the whole family, and rooted in the belief that joy and health can—and should—exist in the same bottle.
Functional sodas are no longer fringe—they’re foundational. Today’s consumers, especially Millennials and Gen Z, are done settling for synthetic sweeteners, sugar crashes, and hollow claims. They’re choosing, transparent sourcing, and wellness that works. Plant Pop® doesn’t just meet that demand, it brings feel-good fizz wherever life happens—This is soda with purpose. THIS IS PLANT POP®.
PLANT POP® Founder and CEO, Scott Strader, has been building wellness brands for the last 25 years. Scott understands the science and soul behind crafting a healthy beverage with functional ingredients. “The best products don’t start with profit— they start with a problem, a pressing need,” says Scott Strader. “PLANT POP® didn’t begin in a boardroom. It began with a simple realization: there wasn’t a single soda that was clean, functional, and enjoyable enough to share with the people I care about most. Conversations with mothers, health advocates, and mindful consumers helped sharpen that clarity. That’s when the mission came into focus—and PLANT POP® was born.”
Scott’s path to creation began long before PLANT POP®. As an accomplished actor and musician, he spent years using art to move people emotionally. That same instinct—to create something lasting and meaningful—now lives at the heart of his work in wellness. His most recent venture, Lotus Plant Power®, was inspired by ancient plant
wisdom and the spiritual symbolism of the lotus flower. The brand quickly grew into a beloved name in the functional beverage space, known for its innovation, efficacy, quality, and plant powered purpose, to transcend today’s energy drinks with a healthier option.
While LOTUS and PLANT POP® are independent companies, they share the same heartbeat: elevating everyday choices with plant-powered intention. Scott took everything he’d learned—about formulation, sourcing, and soul—and applied it to a new kind of challenge: soda with purpose. “Wellness isn’t just about what we consume—it’s about how we live,” Scott says. “We must not only be good stewards not only to ourselves, but of one another. I’ve made it my responsibility to offer better-for-you beverages held to the highest standards—for anyone seeking something more”, Strader remarks. PLANT POP® is the result. A clean, delicious, multi-functional soda—designed not just to be consumed, but to be shared.
