More than 77,000 cans of zero-sugar 7Up soda may unintentionally contain full sugar, the Food and Drug Administration announced yesterday. Admiral Beverage Company initially recalled the affected 7Up Tropical soda on Aug. 20. On Sept. 29, the FDA classified the recall as Class II, meaning that drinking the recalled soda may cause temporary or reversible health consequences, though the likelihood of serious health consequences is low.12

How to Identify the Recalled Soda

The recalled 7Up Tropical soda was sold in 12-packs containing 12-ounce cans. The outer cases are labeled as “7Up Tropical,” while the cans inside are labeled as “7Up Tropical Zero Sugar.” However, the cans actually contain full-sugar soda.

You can identify the recalled soda cases by the following information:1

• UPC code: 0 78000 03798 2
• Lot code/batch code: UT06176
• Best by: March 17, 2027

The recalled soda was distributed in Utah, according to the FDA enforcement report.

What To Do if You Have the Recalled Soda

If you have the recalled 7Up soda at home and are concerned about or monitoring your sugar intake, you should avoid drinking it. Full-sugar 7Up Tropical soda contains 38 grams of sugar per 12-ounce can.3

You can throw the recalled soda away or return it to the place of purchase for a refund. Because the recall is due to a labeling error rather than contamination, the product is not considered unsafe for most consumers.
