Is Dr Pepper Cherry or an Almond flavour? We are having an office dispute. I am of the opinion that it is an almond flavour though there is a cherry vanilla version and so the others are confused and therefore wrong. What's your opinion? |

I thought like Irn Bru it was "an indeterminate fruit" taste |

From looking here it states - Extract of almond, several times but yet the word Cherry is not mentioned. http://stason.org/TULARC/indulgence/dr-pepper/2-2-Okay-so-what-s-in-Dr-Pepper.html |

from wikipedia Dr Pepper's flavor is allegedly derived from a mixture of soda fountain flavors popular when the drink was first devised. A partial list of these flavors can be seen at the bottling plant in Dublin, Texas, although the formula itself (with its twenty-three ingredients) is a closely guarded secret. Contrary to a popular urban legend, Dr Pepper does not, and never has, contained prune juice. |

i thought dr pepper was based on a prune flavour "Pepper doesn't contain any prune juice, but this rumor is remarkably long-lived" From some urban legend site. |

I E-Mailed Coca Cola a while ago, asking why there wasn't a Diet Cherry Coke and they replied saying they never planned to introduce it. Few months later out it came. Tastes like shit though. In reference to the original question, I've never heard of almond being in it, just thought it was a mixed fruit drink. |
