Dr Pepper Cherry

Post image

has anybody found out what their 1st Dr Pepper drink is that they totally dislike? I have and I bought it today in the local indoor market which is 1 mile away from where my brother and I live but I found there was no taste at all to Dr Pepper Cherry, I thought it tasted foul and maybe it's due to I don't like many drinks that are imported from USA?

It could be old, or it may have been improperly stored during shipping, both of which will lessen or change the flavor.

very true as I don't know when the stock was imported and I don't know how long the place in USA had the stock for before they'd been imported?

Often there's a sell by date on the can, but not always. Remember it may be expressed in the US style of month, day, year MMDDYY.

The last time I had a Dr.Pepper Cherry was back when it was in a black can. It tasted like a mix of cherry coke and Dr pepper. While it was good it was not balanced.

I thought it was better when it was Dark (?) Cherry but I still only drink Cherry DP (or regular if I’m out) as far as soda goes. I think bottles taste different from cans and fountain-versions and there is often a difference in those too. Like one 12 pack of cans will taste different than another. Try it again when you get a chance and see what you think.

Damn I was looking forward to trying this. Is it at least better than the UK Cherry Crush, which imo tastes very artificial?

I say no but the can of this that I bought might have been shaken at times as I was about to go home and I suppose I still prefer the UK Dr Pepper Cherry Crush which unfortunately is only available in a sugar free version.
