Dr. Pepper, 12 fl oz can, 36-count

This carbonated soft drink is made with carbonated water as its base, providing its signature fizz. Sweetness comes from high fructose corn syrup, which delivers the characteristic balanced sweetness. Caramel color gives the beverage its deep color, while phosphoric acid adds a crisp, tangy bite.

The distinctive flavor profile is created with natural and artificial flavors, forming Dr Pepper’s well-known blend. Sodium benzoate is included to help preserve freshness, and caffeine provides the beverage’s familiar stimulating effect.

This product contains caffeine and is formulated as a traditional, full-sugar soda.
