PepsiCo has unveiled a new Prebiotic Cola to meet growing consumer demand for functional ingredients.
The innovation includes 5 grams of cane sugar, has 30 calories, and contains no artificial sweeteners. It is said to deliver the “classic crisp, refreshing taste of Pepsi” with the added functional ingredient of 3 grams of prebiotic fibre.
Initially launching in the US in Original Cola and Cherry Vanilla flavours, it will be sold in 12 oz. single cans for trial and 8-packs of 12 oz. cans. The new offering will be available online this autumn and in stores in early 2026, located in the traditional carbonated soft drink aisle alongside the full Pepsi portfolio.
“From the iconic blue can to the consumer-preferred Pepsi Zero Sugar, our portfolio has always adapted to the needs and flavour preferences of the consumer,” said Ram Krishnan, CEO, PepsiCo Beverages US.
“Pepsi Prebiotic Cola represents the next leap forward in giving consumers choice, optionality and functional ingredients in their cola experience, without sacrificing the iconic Pepsi taste we’re known for delivering. We can’t wait for the world to try the taste of Pepsi Prebiotic Cola for themselves!”
