What's in your Tab 12 Pack
Ingredients & Nutrition Facts
Each can of Tab Soda in our 12 pack contains carbonated water, caramel color, natural flavors, phosphoric acid, calcium saccharin, potassium benzoate (to protect taste), caffeine, and potassium citrate. Our proprietary blend uses saccharin as the primary sweetener, delivering the distinctive Tab taste that sets us apart from other diet colas.
Nutrition per 12 oz serving: 0 calories, 0g total fat, 40mg sodium (2% DV), 0g total carbohydrates, 0g protein. Tab contains 46mg of caffeine per can — roughly equivalent to a cup of green tea. Our formula is sodium-free and delivers refreshment without added sugars or artificial colors beyond caramel for that classic cola hue.
Storage & Best Practices
Store your Tab Soda 12 Pack in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. For optimal taste, refrigerate cans for at least 2 hours before serving. Once chilled, cans maintain peak flavor for 6-9 months from the date printed on the bottom of each can.
We recommend consuming Tab cold — between 35-40°F — to fully experience the crisp carbonation and bold cola notes. Pour over ice for an even more refreshing experience, or enjoy straight from the can. After opening, consume immediately for best carbonation and flavor. The 12 pack format is ideal for families or individuals who enjoy 1-2 cans daily.
Why Choose the Tab 12 Pack Format
Everyday Value
The 12 pack strikes the perfect balance between bulk savings and manageable refrigerator space. You’ll pay less per can than buying singles or 6 packs, while avoiding the storage challenges of 24 or 36 can cases. This size fits comfortably on a standard fridge shelf and keeps Tab accessible for daily enjoyment.
Freshness You Can Count On
Smaller pack sizes mean faster turnover, so every can you open is at peak freshness. Unlike larger cases that may sit for weeks, our 12 pack encourages regular rotation. Each purchase delivers cans with months of shelf life remaining, ensuring you experience Tab’s signature taste exactly as we intended. Many fans keep one pack chilled and one in the pantry for continuous supply without clutter.
