Well, I like it. Tasty, and I don’t really like Dr. Pepper. Not too much raspberry, not too much cream. I had the diet version. I’m always on the lookout for new diet sodas. Tried it? ---

Hm. I like me some Dr. Pepper. I like me some raspberries. I like cream. This sounds like I should like it. Now I’ve gotta find out where in the hell they’re hiding it. ---

According to some bloggers, it’s set to debut in April. I think our grocery store’s vendors are just on the ball. Ebay has some for like, $30 a twelve pack. Soda as a collectors item? Now that’s f’ed up. ---

Kids will love it. So will adults if you happen to like a sickly sweet taste. Yes I have tasted it. ---

Is it only available in Diet? Or regular Dr. Pepper? Because I loathe diet soda. This sounds good. I love Dr. Pepper, and I love cream soda, and berries added in sounds good. ---

It’s available in both diet and regular. It’s very much a cream soda. It would make great ice cream floats. It’s not one I’d drink all the time, but it is tasty. Guess my tastes are childish and sickly. :rolleyes: ---

I’ve been meaning to try it. I despise Dr. Pepper, but I love diet cherry vanilla Dr. Pepper. I think I’ll probably like the berries and cream kind too. Sometimes a girl just NEEDS something sickeningly sweet and diet soda has fewer calories and more caffeine tan chocolate, plus the carbonation makes me feel full. Diet vanilla sodas are a dieter’s dream. ---

I already regularly drink the sickly sweet Jones Berry Lemonade soda, so I’m interested in giving this one a shot. ---

> [@FilmGeek](#): > > It’s not one I’d drink all the time, but it is tasty. Guess my tastes are childish and sickly. :rolleyes: Hey, so are mine. But I revel in it. They’re _my_ tastebuds. I’ll pour whatever gives _me_ pleasure all over them. 😉 I’ll be trying this stuff as soon as I see it. I like berries and cream.
