Float into Fall with New, Retro-Refreshed Root Beer Flavor from Slice Soda

The newest addition to Slice's family of flavors marries soda fountain-era nostalgia with only 3 grams of sugar

SAN DIEGO, Sept. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Slice Soda, the beloved '80s brand that's back and better-for-you thanks to new Suja Life ownership, today announces the launch of its new Root Beer flavor. Crafted with the rich, creamy flavor of the beloved soda fountain staple, Slice's better-for-you formula has a unique blend of prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics – the only brand in the healthy soda category to feature all three biotics. At only 30 calories and 3 grams of sugar per can with 5 grams of fiber, it's Root Beer you can root for.

Root Beer marks the newest addition to Slice Soda's fabulously fizzy lineup that includes flavors such as Orange, Grape, Lemon Lime, Classic Cola, Cherry Cola, Watermelon, Ginger Ale, Grapefruit Spritz and Strawberry. Like all Slice flavors, Root Beer brings all the best parts of traditional soda, including satisfyingly high carbonation, but never the bad stuff like high fructose corn syrup. Slice is also non-GMO Project verified, gluten-free, vegan, and kosher.

"For our newest flavor, we wanted to create something that's familiar but also designed with the wellness-focused consumer in mind," said Nicole Portwood, Chief Marketing Officer at Suja Life. "All of Slice Soda's flavors are leveled-up versions of the classics, allowing you to feel like a kid all over again, without sacrificing your healthy lifestyle."

Available now, Root Beer Slice can be found at Kroger banner locations including Kroger, Ralphs, Dillons, Smith's, King Soopers, City Market, Fry's, QFC, and Harris Teeter.  Kroger banners are also expanding their Slice assortment by now offering Slice Grape and Slice Cherry Cola flavors.
