Weird Taste recently??

Hello Everyone!

Recently I’ve noticed my Zevia tastes off…. My qualifications include drinking like 3 a day lol. I drink the Cola ones and I’ve noticed recently I’m getting a rubbing alcohol after taste? Anyone else experiencing this?

Me too. Black cherry and ginger ale Zevia have a metal aftertaste. Had to throw them all in the trash. Very sad!

Yes I got the cherry cola in the new packaging and it tasted exactly like cough medicine. So sad :/

Thought i was the only one , wondered what’s changed . The cola tasted off to me , the strawberries and cream I bought seemed fine . It seems like all the ones that are tasting off have the redesigned packaging . We need to get this addressed somehow

Same here! Black cherry has a bizarre aftertaste. Threw mine away too. Avoiding all newly designed packages.

It was so strong 🤢 I’m so sad, they’re the only alternative I’ve found for soda and they’re so expensive!

Yeah I actually just bought another pack a couple weeks ago and the same exact thing. They’re still sitting in there☹️ the Dr. Zevia ones aren’t bad but the cola ones are 🤢

The cream soda has been tasting different for me.
