Hmmm .....Dr Pepper?
« on: November 17, 2008, 09:28:16 PM »
So...Dr Pepper.  A unique drink. It's not an apple, it's not an orange, it's not a strawberry, it's not a root beer, it's not even a cola. It's a different kind of drink with a unique taste all its own. 
So that leads us to...What flavor exactly is Dr Pepper?  No one knows.  You do?  Well tell us then, cause I would like to know.

Try adding some chocolate syrup in your Dr. Pepper.  It tastes great!

Recently, DP has been advertising that is has 23 flavors, or something like that...
I guess the flavor could be 'graveyard'.... but i think Dr Pepper will remain a mystery  :-X

I laughed when I first saw that. I thought "23 flavors? Doesn't that just mean that they had to keep adding stuff to mask the taste of their really crappy cola?"

I can picture how it was made.

"Hey guys, I made this new drink."
"Man... That tastes horrible."
"Hrm... Let's add this..."
"No, that's still horrible."

22 flavors later...
"Oh man, that's actually pretty good."
"Well, let's try it without this first thing."
"No, tastes like crap again."

Years ago I read that Dr. Pepper is actually just cola with grape soda added. I don't know if it's true or not.

I rarely drink soft drinks but when i do the Dr. makes the call!

I live in the South, so of course I drink Dr. Pepper.  I've traveled up north and sometimes had a hard time finding it.

I grew up drinking it, so I guess that's one reason I like it so much.

As for the flavor, some people say it tastes like prune juice.

It has always tasted like prune juice to me, maybe it's one of those genetic taste bud things.  I love Coke Classic--especially the Hecho en Mexico or Kosher for Passover varieties that use cane sugar and not high fructose corn syrup, Barq's, even 7-UP, but Dr. Pepper--just tastes like prunes.  My kids don't care for it either, they think it tastes awful, but they can't compare it to prune juice--they won't even taste that for purposes of finding out.  But it is definately a southern thing, almost like an RC and a Moon Pie.
