Every Poppi flavor, can by can: a collector checklist

You open the fridge at a friend's place and see a row of slim pastel cans, each a different color, and you realize you own none of them. That is the Poppi problem for a can collector: there are a lot of Poppi flavors, the brand adds and retires cans, and the color of a can tells you little about what is inside. Here is every Poppi can as a checklist, plus the answer to "does Poppi have caffeine" for each one.

Why Poppi flavors matter for a can collector

Poppi flavors are one of the easiest ways to grow a soda shelf fast. The brand's drinks page lists 18 single flavors as of October 24, 2026, and every one comes in its own color. That is 18 different cans from one brand, sold in many US grocery stores.

Poppi also matters because nobody has one yet. I pulled the owner counts from the CanMog database on October 24, 2026, and no player owns a Poppi can on any shelf. Every Poppi flavor you scan is a can no other player has on their shelf today.

Two kinds of Poppi cans: fruit and cola

Poppi cans fall into two groups for a collector. The fruit and cream flavors, like Strawberry Lemon or Orange Cream, list no caffeine on their product pages. The colas and Alpine Blast list caffeine, and that changes where they count in CanMog.

Keep the two groups apart in your head. A fruit can goes on your Soda shelf. A can with known caffeine goes on the Energy shelf and also shows on Soda, which the shelves part of the home page explains.

How to collect every Poppi can, step by step

Collecting every Poppi can takes a plan, because most stores carry only part of the range. Here is the order that works.

1. Write down the 18 flavors. Copy the checklist below into your notes app, or take a screenshot of it. Tick a flavor only after you scan it.
2. Start with the big variety packs. A variety pack gives you several flavors in one trip. The brand's Fall for Flavor pack, for example, holds Sour Apple, Shirley Temple, Root Beer and Orange.
3. Scan each can as you open the pack. Open CanMog, point the camera at the barcode and confirm that it is a can. One scan per flavor is enough.
4. Hunt the limited can first. Sour Apple is the only flavor the brand calls a limited edition. Limited cans leave shelves, so get it before the common flavors.
5. Fill the gaps with singles. Grocery stores often sell single Poppi cans in the soda fridge. Take your checklist and buy only the flavors you are missing.
6. Check the caffeinated cans on both shelves. After you scan Classic Cola, Cherry Cola, Doc Pop or Alpine Blast, look for the can on your Energy shelf too.

The part people get wrong: packs and repeats

A variety pack can hold more than one can of the same flavor. The second copy of a can adds no points to your score.

Scan one can per flavor and keep the rest in the fridge. In CanMog, ten cans of the same drink count once, so variety is the only way up.

Poppi flavors: the full checklist

Poppi's drinks page is the source of truth for what the brand sells now. The table lists every single flavor on that page as of October 24, 2026, in the brand's own order. The last column compares the list with the 15 flavors PepsiCo named in its May 2025 press release.

Three cans on the page today were not in PepsiCo's list of 15: Sour Apple, Shirley Temple and Cream Soda. Those are the newest cans on the shelf, so they are the ones a long-time Poppi fan is most likely to miss.

Some Poppi cans are no longer on the drinks page. Wikipedia lists Cranberry Fizz and Punch Pop as seasonal flavors, and it also lists Berries & Cream. None of the three is on the brand's drinks page as of October 24, 2026.

Does Poppi have caffeine?

Poppi has caffeine in four flavors only. Classic Cola, Cherry Cola and Doc Pop each say "Contains 40mg Natural Caffeine", and Alpine Blast says "Contains 55mg Natural Caffeine". The brand pages give the serving size as one can.

The size of the can comes from a store listing. Wegmans lists the Classic Cola single as a 12 fl oz can with 40 mg of caffeine. The other 14 flavors on the drinks page list no caffeine in their nutrition facts or ingredients.

Tips for hunting Poppi cans

Poppi cans are easy to find in big US grocery chains and harder to find as a full set. A few habits make the hunt shorter.

Read the flavor name, not the color. Several Poppi cans use close colors, for example the two cherry cans and the two orange cans. Check the name on the can before you tick it off.

Buy singles for the last few flavors. Once you have the big packs, a single can of each missing flavor costs you less than another full pack. Stores with a single-can fridge are the best place to finish the set.

Look in a second store. Two grocery chains in the same town rarely stock the same flavors. A second store often has the two or three cans the first one lacks.

What is Poppi, and who owns it

Poppi is an American soda brand that its makers label a "prebiotic soda". It started as Mother Beverage, founded by Allison and Stephen Ellsworth, who pitched it on Shark Tank in 2018 and renamed it Poppi in 2020, according to Wikipedia.

PepsiCo owns Poppi now. PepsiCo closed the acquisition on May 19, 2025, in a deal valued at $1.95 billion, including $300 million in expected cash tax benefits. Since then, the drinks page has grown from 15 flavors to 18.

How to measure your Poppi progress

Poppi progress in CanMog shows up in a few places. Check these signals after each shopping trip.

• Soda shelf count: How many of the 18 flavors are on your Soda shelf? Aim for all 18, then the seasonal cans.
• Energy shelf: Are Classic Cola, Cherry Cola, Doc Pop and Alpine Blast on your Energy shelf too?
• Brand Collector badge: Different cans of one brand count toward Brand Collector, with levels at 5, 10 and 30 cans. The 18 flavors on the page take you past level II, which the badges post explains.
• Explorer badge: Poppi counts as one new brand for the Explorer badge, which counts different brands.
• First finds: Did a Poppi scan give you the first-find bonus of 50 points? That bonus goes to the first player to scan a can.

A workable weekly test

A simple test keeps the hunt honest. Once a week, count the Poppi flavors on your shelf and compare the number with the checklist.

If the count did not move for two weeks, change the store, not the plan. Write the missing flavors on a list and ask the store staff whether they stock them.

Common mistakes and edge cases

Most Poppi mistakes come from the packs and from the colors. Watch for these.

• Mistake: scanning the same flavor twice. A duplicate adds nothing to your score. Scan one can per flavor and move on.
• Mistake: ticking a flavor from the color. Two cans in close colors are easy to mix up. Read the name before you tick it.
• Mistake: expecting a tier before anyone owns the can. Rarity in CanMog is how many players own a can, and big brands have a floor. Nobody owns a Poppi can yet, so I cannot promise a tier; the rarity post explains how tiers form.
• Mistake: waiting on the limited can. Sour Apple is a limited edition. Scan it while stores still have it.
• Edge case: the seasonal cans. Cranberry Fizz and Punch Pop are not on the drinks page now. If you see one, scan it, because you may not see it again.

Caffeinated Poppi cans on two shelves

A Poppi can with known caffeine counts on the Energy shelf and also shows on the Soda shelf. That rule covers Classic Cola, Cherry Cola, Doc Pop and Alpine Blast.

The app counts a can on Energy only when it knows the caffeine for that barcode. The CanMog catalog lists caffeine for one Poppi barcode, Classic Cola at 40 mg, so the other Poppi barcodes fill in as players scan them.

Your Poppi checklist and next steps

Poppi is one of the fastest ways to add 18 cans to a soda shelf, and the shelf is empty for every player today. Here is the short version.

• The 18 flavors: Sour Apple, Shirley Temple, Orange Cream, Strawberry Lemon, Wild Berry, Lemon Lime, Cream Soda, Root Beer, Alpine Blast, Doc Pop, Orange, Cherry Cola, Ginger Lime, Raspberry Rose, Grape, Cherry Limeade, Watermelon, Classic Cola.
• The limited can: Sour Apple, first on your list.
• The four caffeinated cans: Classic Cola, Cherry Cola and Doc Pop at 40 mg per can, Alpine Blast at 55 mg per can.
• The seasonal cans: Cranberry Fizz and Punch Pop, if you ever see them.
• One scan per flavor: Duplicates add nothing; variety moves your score.

Scan your first Poppi can and you could be the first CanMog player to own it. Get CanMog, and read the rarity basics on the home page before your next store run.
