🥤 OLIPOP: New year, new you! At least that’s the promise you made to yourself before waking up with a hangover on Monday, right? Well, now that a couple of days have passed and your commitment to dry January is already waning, it’s time to invest in some OLIPOP. It’s the prebiotic soda with fiber and with as little as two grams of sugar in each can – a sip will have you feeling nostalgic for the days that your parents ordered you Shirley Temples as a special treat when you went out to eat. Wake up from tomorrow’s run with an extra pep in your step and some improved gut health thanks to OLIPOP.
