Soda lovers, rejoice! If you’ve been searching for a flavorful refreshment that won’t sabotage your health goals, your quest ends here.

Meet Pop Jones: Flavor Without Compromise

Launching next month, Pop Jones is an exciting addition to the rapidly growing functional beverage market. Each 12 oz can contain just 30 calories—making it a standout in a category often dominated by high-sugar options. With five original, artisan-inspired flavors to choose from, you’ll find yourself savoring every sip of Cucumber Watermelon, Pineapple Ginger, Orange & Cream, Strawberry Passionfruit, and Mixed Berry & Kiwi.

But how do they taste so good and remain low-cal? Pop Jones is expertly sweetened with a clean blend of real fruit juice, pure cane sugar, and natural stevia leaf extract. This thoughtful formulation results in only 4 grams of total sugar, including just 2 grams of added sugar—which is half of what many other functional brands offer and a staggering one-twentieth of the sugar found in a standard soda.

A Health-Conscious Beverage Choice

Beyond delicious flavor, Pop Jones boasts functional ingredients designed to support a healthier lifestyle. Each can is infused with apple cider vinegar and agave inulin, both known for their prebiotic properties. The addition of 20% of your daily recommended intake of zinc further enhances immune support, making Pop Jones not just a treat but a smart beverage choice.

And the cherry on top? Pop Jones is shelf-stable, meaning no refrigeration is necessary to keep these remarkable flavors ready for your enjoyment.

A Vision for Modern Sodas

David Knight, CEO of Jones Soda, reflects on this innovation: “Functional beverages with cleaner ingredients and lower sugar content have created a new modern soda category that meets rising consumer demand for tastier and healthier food and beverage choices.” With nearly 30 years of experience in flavor innovation, Jones Soda is in an excellent position to redefine what soda can be.

Expanding the Flavor Frontier

Pop Jones joins an expanding portfolio of creative products from the beloved brand. Alongside their new functional line, you can also explore Jones Minis (7.5 oz cans of classic flavors), Jones+ (with a boost of caffeine), and even Spiked Jones that melds their industrial flavors with hard cider for a refreshing adult twist. New additions, like Jones Craft Cola and Jones Craft Zero Cola, further illustrate the brand’s commitment to variety and innovation in the beverage space.

With the recent growth of the Mary Jones cannabis brand in legal markets, Jones Soda is clearly leading the charge in expanding beyond traditional boundaries—appealing to diverse tastes and preferences.

A Rich History of Creativity

Founded in 1995 by Peter Van Stolk, Jones Soda quickly rose to prominence, earning a reputation for its unique flavors and unconventional branding. The journey has seen its share of challenges, but with consistent innovation and dedication to quality, the brand has transformed over the years, becoming a staple in craft soda.

From the bold choices of using cane sugar over high fructose corn syrup in 2006 to reimagining flavor profiles today, Jones Soda is all about providing consumers with exceptional beverages that they can enjoy responsibly.

Join the Guilt-Free Soda Revolution!

If you’re ready to refresh your beverage choices with a health-conscious spin, keep an eye out for Pop Jones at select retail locations and on JonesSoda.com next month. Here’s to a new era of soda—where you can indulge in bold flavors without compromising your health.
