This amazes me. It just goes to show how different tastes can be. Dr. Pepper is by far my favorite soft drink, but the diet version can literally cause me to gag.
Diet Dr. Pepper Cherry is the best soft drink out there.
Cherry Dr. Pepper confuses me, as I thought Dr. Pepper already included some cherry flavor. Is it just sort of extra-cherry-flavored Dr. Pepper?
That’s what I was going to ask-I thought Dr P was basically cherry coke. Not that extra cherry flavor is a sin against the gods or anything
I haven’t heard of the Black Cherry-Vanilla brand, but there was a different cherry brand called Red Fusion that was around about 5 years ago - it tasted more like cough syrup than soda though. There was also an interesting brand called berries & creme which came in a purple can, which tasted pretty much unlike any other soda so it’s hard to make a comparison. I liked it though, so of course they no longer make it.
Okay, so according to wikipedia, the cherry Dr Pepper in the black can IS the new one, and it rolled out last year - I first saw it in Seattle in May 2009, but it started showing up on shelves in Brooklyn later in the summer. That stuff was good.
When you brought it to the Dopefest, I think I had like 2 or 3 cans. It was liquid hugs.
(and yes, the Cherry flavor was very prevalent)
