At Hip Pop we add a living culture to all of our drinks to support gut health. We harness a bacteria called Bacillus Coagulans which has undergone rigorous scientific studies. You get these live, active cultures added to every can of Hip Pop soda.

There are two main differences between the two soda ranges (see below), however, both ranges contain probiotic living cultures (Bacillus Coagulans) and are 100% natural, low-sugar - full of the same goodness.

Gut Lovin' Sodas are high in fibre. Each can contains 1/4 of your daily dose of prebiotic fibre,

Living Sodas are infused with apple cider vinegar. Each can is packed with your daily dose (1 tbsp).

Unfortunately no. Just like beer, you get the mass-made stuff and then you get carefully craft-brewed sodas. Our Sodas are craft brewed, using 100% natural ingredients, in small batches on our beautiful farm in Cheshire. All of the production processes are done internally at our brewery, from the brewing itself to the canning of the soda, and packaging and distribution of the drinks.

A functional drink can be broadly defined as any drink with added health benefits, we add your daily dose of Apple Cider Vinegar, a known prebiotic, (1 tbsp) to our Living Soda and 8g of prebiotic chicory root fibre to our Gut Lovin' soda. There are some studies that suggest some benefits of these ingredients may include: Supporting weight loss, managing blood sugar levels, reducing belly fat and balancing cholesterol. Also, we add a live culture called Bacillus Coagulans which has undergone rigorous scientific studies and are known to actively support gut health. So yes, both our soda ranges can be considered functional drinks.

Yes, our sodas are gluten-free, dairy-free, and 100% vegan. We want all of our drinks to be accessible to as many people as possible, so everyone can enjoy them!

Yes, as a low-sugar, 100% natural drink with no artificial sweeteners, our sodas are a much healthier alternative to regular conventional sodas, which are typically full of sugar and artificial ingredients (known for not being very good to your gut). This fact, coupled with the functional ingredients that we add to every can means that our sodas are a great alternative drink for you and your gut!

No, unlike kombucha, our sodas don't go through a fermentation process and therefore contain no alcohol at all.

No, unlike our Kombucha, our sodas don't contain any caffeine as they aren't made using tea. Instead, they are just regular sodas/soft drinks, only better for you and your gut!

Yes, all of our drinks are considered Halal suitable.

Yes, our sodas are safe to drink when pregnant, but it's always a good idea to check with a doctor first, especially if you have any medical conditions.
