Not until you open it. SaladPower is shelf-stable, which means an unopened pouch keeps at room temperature and does not need the fridge, the freezer, or a cooler. That is a large part of what makes it practical: you can stock up, store it in a pantry or a desk, and take it anywhere without worrying about keeping it cold.
Before you open it
An unopened pouch is stable at room temperature until the date printed on the packaging, so it lives happily in a cupboard, a bag, or a backpack. This is what lets it work for travel, camping, and desk drawers, where refrigeration is not an option. Check the printed date for its shelf life.
After you open it
Once opened, treat it like any fresh product: finish it, or refrigerate it and drink it soon. For most people this is a non-issue, since a pouch is a single serving meant to be drunk in one go.
Best served cold
Refrigeration is not required, but SaladPower tastes best cold. Many customers keep a few pouches in the fridge, and drinking it chilled or over ice is the most common tip in our reviews.
