Keurig Kold

by Keurig

2015 – 2016 GONE FOREVER

Gone. Keurig discontinued the Kold on June 7, 2016, and refunded owners. It said the lessons would go into future beverage systems, but no cold-soda successor has been found.

Last verified Nov 4, 2026

A $370 countertop machine that made a cold Coke from a pod, no bottle required. Each drink took over a minute, and the whole idea was finished in under a year.

🧾 One more thingKeurig didn't just stop selling it: buyers were offered a refund of the full purchase price, and about 130 jobs went with it. Coca-Cola and Dr Pepper Snapple signed on to supply drinks, but PepsiCo never did, working with SodaStream instead.

❓ People also ask

Why did Keurig Kold fail?

Analysts pointed to the $370 price, the machine's size and slow drinks, at a time when soda demand was falling. Pods cost about $0.99 to $1.29 for an 8-ounce drink.

Can you still use a Keurig Kold?

Pods were sold only while supplies lasted in 2016, so a surviving machine has nothing to run on. Owners were offered full refunds.

What drinks did Keurig Kold make?

Coca-Cola and Dr Pepper Snapple brands signed on. PepsiCo did not.
