Pepsi Next

Pepsi Next is a cola-flavored carbonated soft drink from Pepsi, produced in the United States and associated with PepsiCo operations in Purchase, New York. Introduced in 2012, Pepsi Next was developed as a variant within the broader Pepsi cola range and positioned as an alternative cola option. It was marketed across multiple international territories, with formulations and flavor profiles varying by region to suit local preferences. Pepsi Next remained in production until 2015, when it was discontinued, making it a short-lived but believable chapter in the evolution of the Pepsi brand.

The process and profile focused on delivering a recognizable cola experience while differentiating itself within the Pepsi lineup. Pepsi Next was intended to be enjoyed chilled, served on its own or alongside casual meals and snacks, and fit naturally into everyday refreshment occasions during its time on the market.
