Pepsi Next[edit | edit source]
Pepsi Next, a product of PepsiCo, is a mid-calorie cola beverage that was introduced in 2012. It was marketed as a healthier alternative to regular Pepsi, with 60% less sugar.
History[edit | edit source]
Pepsi Next was first launched in Australia in 2012, before being introduced to the United States market. The product was developed as part of PepsiCo's commitment to deliver reduced-sugar options in response to growing health concerns about sugar consumption. Despite its initial popularity, Pepsi Next was discontinued in the United States in 2015.
Product Description[edit | edit source]
Pepsi Next was a cola-flavored beverage that contained 60% less sugar than regular Pepsi. It was sweetened with a blend of high fructose corn syrup, aspartame, and acesulfame potassium. The product was available in 12-ounce cans, 20-ounce bottles, and 2-liter bottles.
Reception[edit | edit source]
Upon its release, Pepsi Next received mixed reviews. Some consumers appreciated the reduced sugar content, while others criticized the taste, comparing it unfavorably to regular Pepsi. Despite these mixed reviews, Pepsi Next was successful in Australia, where it continues to be sold.
Discontinuation[edit | edit source]
PepsiCo discontinued Pepsi Next in the United States in 2015. The decision was reportedly due to declining sales and the company's desire to focus on its core brands. However, Pepsi Next continues to be available in other markets, including Australia.
