PepsiCo announced on Monday that it will acquire a prebiotic soda brand called Poppi, which was founded by a family in Austin, Texas. The deal is valued at nearly $2 billion.

Ellsworth developed Poppi – then known as Mother Beverage -- in her kitchen in 2015 because she loved soda but was tired of the way it made her feel. She mixed fruit juices with apple cider vinegar, sparkling water and prebiotics and sold the drink at farmer's markets.
