SNAPPLE SODAS

Snapple

Discontinued: Mid 1990s

Snapple’s earliest products were caffeine-free sodas, not teas.

These sodas included Peach Melba, French Cherry, Cream D’Vanilla, and Tru Root Beer.

These sodas disappeared from shelves by the mid-1990s as Snapple shifted focus to tea and juice products.

MINT ICED TEA

Snapple

Discontinued: 2007

Launched with Snapple’s first tea line in 1987, this refreshing blend of mint became a fan favorite.

It was discontinued in 2007 due to low sales and shelf space constraints.

A brief 2009 revival failed, and Snapple later confirmed no plans for its return.

GUAVA MANIA

Snapple

Discontinued: Late 1990s

This tropical pink juice was one of Snapple’s most unique drinks ever.

The company hoped customers would enjoy its more exotic flavor.

But it was discontinued during a portfolio restructuring in the late 1990s.

SAMOAN SPLASH

Snapple

Discontinued: Late 1990s

Part of Snapple’s Island Cocktail line, this tropical blend featured flavor notes of orange, banana, strawberry, and cupuaçu.

Promoted to evoke exotic vacations, it didn’t gain enough popularity to remain in production and was discontinued along with other Island Cocktail flavors.

CACTUS ICED TEA

Snapple

Discontinued: Early 2000s

This experimental flavor combined Snapple’s iced tea with cactus juice.

It was made for consumers interested in botanical ingredients.

It was met with mixed reactions but failed to hold on long-term.

MELONBERRY

Snapple

Discontinued: 2005

Snapple’s blend of watermelon, strawberry, and cherry sold in bright pink cans that resembled sodas more than juices.

Most fans recalled it was “absolutely delicious” when served ice-cold.

SNAPPLE ELEMENTS

Snapple

Discontinued: 2005

This nature-themed Snapple line launched in April 1999 with Earth, Rain, Fire, and Sun flavors.

It also had a tea line under the same Elements branding.

The distinctive glass bottles won design awards, and the line quickly accounted for 15% of Snapple’s sales.

Despite this success, the original Elements were discontinued in 2005.

A 2022 revival features different formulations and plastic bottles.

LIME GREEN TEA

Snapple

Discontinued: 2005

This citrus-infused green tea featured an intense lime flavor that critics claimed overwhelmed the tea flavor.

Released in 2003, it lasted only about two years before being discontinued.

SNAPPLE ELEMENTS ALUMINUM ENERGY LINE

Snapple

Discontinued: 2005

Launched in 2003 to compete with emerging energy drink brands, these beverages featured caffeine-enhanced versions of popular Elements flavors in sporty metal containers.

Despite the rebranding effort, they failed to penetrate the competitive energy drink market.

APPLE PIE/SNAPPLE PIE

Snapple

Discontinued: 2005

This seasonal flavor mimicked apple pie in liquid form.

CNN covered its launch, noting it could be served warm.

After positive feedback, Snapple reintroduced it in November 2005 alongside cranberry and raspberry “Snapple Pie” variants, but all disappeared shortly after.

COMPASSIONBERRY TEA

Snapple

Discontinued: Mid 2000s

Created to promote autism awareness, this berry-infused tea supported a charitable cause with a berried flavor.

Despite positive reception for its taste and mission, it only lasted less than a year.

SUMMER PEACH

Snapple

Discontinued: 2010

This seasonal drink was formulated with citrus orange, sweet peaches, and sunset-colored juice.

It was available only during the summer months.

BALI BLAST

Snapple

Discontinued: 2005

This was another Island Cocktail flavor with a weird taste profile that confused consumers.

The name seemed designed to evoke exotic imagery rather than describe a specific flavor experience.

SNAP PUNCH

Snapple

Discontinued: 2021

This two-liter line featured fruit punch varieties like watermelon, grape, cherry, and mango.

Marketed as a nostalgic throwback to childhood pool days, it gained some followers before Snapple confirmed its discontinuation via Twitter in 2021, directing fans to standard Fruit Punch instead.

DIET SNAPPLE VARIANTS

Snapple

Discontinued: 2020

These sugar-free versions of popular Snapple flavors were mainstays for decades. In the early 2020s, they were rebranded as “Zero Sugar Snapple” to align with modern labeling trends.

While technically discontinued, the same formulas continue under the new name.
