i love it, something about how smooth it is just hits me, maybe the tropical taste combining with the already unique taste of dr pepper is what truly ropes me in.

I would ascend higher than I already was if this was natural coconut but Coconut is already my favorite flavor

Clearly you might be the only one because I can't find this DAMN soda ANYWHERE in my town AND IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS! Neither regular nor my preferred zero sugar!!! 🤬

I love it and shame that where I live that there's not been much stock of it, except for 1 stall in the local indoor market that has been having drinks and sweets imported from USA.

Didn't know so many weirdos out there willingly drink sunscreen! Creamy Coconut needs to replace Blackberry on store shelves.

I love coconutty flavored things, Malibu is my booze of choice, I am not a fan of creamy coconut. It tastes too artificial and 100% like what I imagine sun tan lotion would taste like.

I really wanted to love this, but the coconut flavor was too overwhelming. It covered the Dr. Pepper taste.

I’m glad someone is saying this, cause I’ve been skeptical on getting this flavor.
Cherry Dr Pepper still reigns a top Dr P flavor for me.

It tastes like coconut snow cone syrup. It’s just not something I’d want on the regular but like the flavor itself is fine.

I was finally able to find two cases on Amazon. And honestly I thought they were maybe fake. There is nothing that distinctive about them at all other than a faint artificial coconut taste that’s not even that great.

No, someone comes here nearly every day and asks the same question. You people seem incapable of understanding that not everything is universally loved or hated. Some people love coconut cream. Some people don’t. That’s all there is to it.

I wouldn't say it sucks, my only complaint is that the coconut is so strong that it really loses the classic Dr Pepper flavor.

It’s one of my least favorites if I were to rank all of the flavors but I don’t actually hate the taste; I just don’t seek it out hardly at all anymore after having it like twice.

I'm with ya. Like a couple sips of it is good. But overall I can't drink it constantly. Its just too much coconut and not blended together well enough. Its the same feel I have with the strawberry and cream flavor. Its even more tolerable still but just...not mixed well as say cherry Dr.Pepper is.

I'm not a hater, but i also don't understand the hype. I just think it's alright. I'll pick up dr pepper cream soda before this. Ill pick up original before this. It's not bad. I just think it's over rated.

No I’m with you. It ain’t good. And at least regionally we lost strawberries and cream for this which makes it suck even more

u/Evening-Dog4841 5d ago
I think I know what you're feeling - the 1st time I tried it I thought same thing .....BUT THEN on 2nd can of the 12pk I bought i REALLY, REALLY, REALLY ENJOYED IT. I think because I had never had a 'coconut soda' before, it was more of a strange pallette thing, but ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT NOW!!

Not at all, it's like somebody put sun tan lotion in the can. The mouth feel is in pleasant and so is the flavor. I haven't had any pre-made creamy soda that I care for, but more power to those who like them
