PepsiCo Breaks New Ground with Launch of Its First-Ever Prebiotic Cola

PepsiCo is redefining cola with the debut of Pepsi® Prebiotic Cola—its boldest leap in soda innovation in over 20 years. Crafted for the modern, health-aware consumer, this groundbreaking beverage delivers the iconic Pepsi taste while packing just 5g of cane sugar, 30 calories, zero artificial sweeteners, and 3g of prebiotic fiber to support gut health.

Available in Original Cola and Cherry Vanilla, Pepsi Prebiotic Cola strikes the perfect balance between classic refreshment and functional wellness. It’s a nostalgic nod to Pepsi’s rich legacy—with a progressive twist for today’s generation of mindful drinkers.

“From our iconic blue can to consumer-favorite Pepsi Zero Sugar, our portfolio has always evolved to meet changing tastes,” said Ram Krishnan, CEO, PepsiCo Beverages U.S. “Pepsi Prebiotic Cola is our next leap forward—bringing functional ingredients into the cola experience without compromising the bold, refreshing Pepsi flavor our fans expect. We’re excited for the world to try it!”

Set to roll out in 12 oz. single cans for sampling and 8-packs for regular purchase, Pepsi Prebiotic Cola will debut online this fall, followed by a wider retail launch in early 2026. It will be stocked in the traditional carbonated soft drink aisle alongside the broader Pepsi lineup.

This launch follows PepsiCo’s strategic expansion into functional beverages, complementing its existing portfolio which now includes the fast-growing modern soda brand Poppi, acquired earlier this year.

Pepsi Prebiotic Cola signals a bold step forward for the legacy brand—delivering on taste, health, and innovation, all in one can.
