"The first thing I saw as I poured the Cherry Cola into a cup was the excellent carbonation. This is something I highly favor in sodas and prebiotic drinks as it gives the beverage some body. The first flavor is that burst of cherry, followed by a cola essence, while the aroma leans more cola-y. It wonderfully melds the two flavors, creating a nostalgic flavor profile."
"As of the end of December 2025 release, Trader Joe's offers two probiotic options: Cherry Cola and Strawberry Vanilla. These come in the classic 12-ounce can and are priced at $1.99 each. They are available in the refrigerated prepped food area along with items like kombuchas and egg bites. They are not located near the drink fridge by the milk and juices, as you might expect."
An avid prebiotic-drink fan keeps several refrigerated as lower-sugar, carbonated soda alternatives. Trader Joe's launched two refrigerated prebiotic sodas, Cherry Cola and Strawberry Vanilla, prompting an immediate purchase to compare with brands like Poppi, Olipop, and Slice. The cans are 12-ounce, priced at $1.99, and stocked in the refrigerated prepped food area alongside kombuchas and egg bites rather than in the beverage fridge. Trader Joe's typically releases stock nationwide quickly, and store staff reported the flavors were newly released. The Cherry Cola delivers excellent carbonation, a burst of cherry followed by cola notes, and a nostalgic blended flavor.
