STRAEBERRIES & CREAM DR PEPPER

Today we are going to look at a brand new drink that has arrived on the market. It seems that popular drinks in America love to remix their flavours and today we check out a fruity version of a very well known brand.

At the beginning of February 2023, it was announced that Dr Pepper was introducing a new flavour to the market – Strawberries and Cream. The new fizzy drink is available in a number of stores across the States and can be purchased in a 12 pack of 12 ounce cans for $10.59. It can also be bought as a single bottle as well however I could not see the price when I researched it.

When researching online, it states that the flavours of strawberries and cream have been intertwined with the original secret recipe of Dr Pepper.

The drink has only been out for a limited time but there are reviews everywhere for it online. There are mixed opinions, some praise that it tastes like boil sweets and also state that the full sugar version is better then the diet. Some argue the strawberry taste overtakes everything whilst some even state the opposite and that it is the cream that takes over.
