8 Discontinued Dr Pepper Flavors That Didn’t Get a Refill

Published:

Dr Pepper has been a fan favorite for over a century, known for its unique blend of 23 flavors. But not every experiment with new varieties has been a success. Over the years, Dr Pepper has released limited-time flavors, bold new twists, and even some regional exclusives—only for them to disappear from shelves.

From the mysterious Red Fusion to the short-lived Berries & Cream, these discontinued Dr Pepper flavors had their moment, but they didn’t last. Let’s take a look at 8 Dr Pepper flavors that faded away.
