By the way, the r/poppi subreddit has been deleted. Pepsi silencing all dissent. I would say to “pour one out” for Poppi, but I don’t recommend buying these sodas, and I don’t drink soda in general (water remains undefeated).

750 mL of fruit syrup costs around $6. In a 1:8 dilution that’s 6 liters. That doesn’t beat $1 for a 2L of store-brand soda, but it’s still rather cheap.
Now if you really want something fizzy and customized, you get a 1-gallon glass jar of pickles, eat the pickles, save the jar. From there, about ¾ pound of sugar ($0.45), 5 regular black tea bags ($0.30), 2 tablespoonfuls of that fruit syrup ($0.24 but you can skip this), a generous dash of vinegar ($0.05), and a kombucha starter. Brew the tea ($0.01 in electricity), fill the rest up with water, let it sit for a month, and then you have 3.5 L of a fancy, low-sugar, carbonated, probiotic drink that cost you about a dollar in supplies.
