Just because Amaya “Papaya” Espinal and Bryan Arenale are over, it doesn’t mean Amaya is out of the spotlight. On October 1, poppi revealed its first-ever talent collaboration, Amaya’s Island Colada, featuring The Love Island USA contestant.
The collaboration comes after poppi went viral with a then-fake collaboration with Amaya. They published a fake can of the Amaya Papaya drink, with the caption: “‘we build’ a flavor for you! 🥹 we never said we were perfect, but this can sure is 🤭 let’s pour one out for our fave sensitive gangsta 🌴🫧 *cue the whimsical music asap* 😌.”
Turns out, social media users were interested in the product. So, after the post went viral — accumulating over 200 thousand likes — poppi made the collaboration come to life. “Who needs a man, when you have your own can! 💛,” Amaya announced online. “If you aren’t drinking my new @drinkpoppi 🌴 limited-edition 🌴 flavor, Amaya’s Island Colada, you’re an extremely odd individual. 🥥🤭🍍.”
The new, limited-edition flavor is described as “a winning tropical blend of pineapple and coconut,” which is as “bold” and “sweet” as the Dominican-American television personality is. It is currently on sale via Amazon at $24.99 for a 12-pack. Though poppi didn’t reveal how long the flavor will be available for, they mentioned that it’s a “once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”
Now that poppi has revealed its first talent collaboration, who can we expect in the future? Maybe a special TROPICOQUETA-inspired Karol G drink? Or a Bad Bunny coquito flavor? We’ll keep an eye out for upcoming collaborations.
