Pepsi Prebiotic Cola to launch online this fall

Evolution of cola brand to arrive in retailers in 2026

PepsiCo, Purchase, N.Y., announced it will introduce Pepsi Prebiotic Cola, an evolution of cola created to reflect the tastes and values of today’s cola lovers, it says. This innovation includes 5 grams of cane sugar, has 30 calories, and contains no artificial sweeteners. It delivers the classic taste of Pepsi, with the added functional ingredient of 3 grams of prebiotic fiber.

Pepsi Prebiotic Cola is the next step for the brand whose journey began in 1898, in New Bern, N.C. Launching in Original Cola and Cherry Vanilla flavors, Pepsi Prebiotic Cola delivers the taste of Pepsi-Cola that consumers have loved for more than 120 years; a reinvention of the traditional cola experience, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to providing choice across the cola portfolio, it says.

“From the iconic blue can, to the consumer-preferred Pepsi Zero Sugar, our portfolio has always adapted to the needs and flavor preferences of the consumer,” said Ram Krishnan, CEO of PepsiCo Beverages U.S., in a statement. “Pepsi Prebiotic Cola represents the next leap forward in giving consumers choice, optionality and functional ingredients in their cola experience, without sacrificing the iconic Pepsi taste we’re known for delivering. We can’t wait for the world to try the taste of Pepsi Prebiotic Cola for themselves!”

Available in 12-ounce single cans for trial and eight-packs of 12-ounce cans, the new offering will be available online this fall and at retail in early 2026, located in the traditional carbonated soft drink aisle alongside the full Pepsi portfolio.
