It’s another huge day for soda lovers! The rumors are true: After its historic summer 2024 run, the widely adored, gone-too-soon Dr Pepper Creamy Coconut is back on the shelves in both full and zero sugar varieties. Yes, you read that right, the day has finally come. If you’re unfamiliar with this beloved flavor and thus see this as just another day in the never-ending soda news cycle, consider that the initial release of Dr Pepper Creamy Coconut made Sporked editor Gwynedd Stuart reconsider her Dr Pepper-purist status. Just imagine how many Dr Pepper flavors she’s tried (it’s definitely more than you). This was the one that deserved the addition of the 24th flavor. Here’s what we know so far about the long-awaited return of Dr Pepper Creamy Coconut.
What does Creamy Coconut Dr Pepper Creamy taste like?
For those who don’t know and those who need a refresher, this delightful soda, according to Gwynedd, “tastes like Dr Pepper spiked with sweet, delicious coconut snow cone syrup.” Dare I say it’s the perfect summer soda? I mean I can’t imagine something more summer-y than a snow cone, let alone a coconut snow cone, let alone that flavor packed into an ice cold soda. Notably, the original 23 flavors are not lost with the addition of coconut, which can’t be said for other varieties such as Dr Pepper Strawberries & Cream.
Where can you buy Dr Pepper Creamy Coconut?
According to @markie_devo on Instagram, the soda has already been spotted at a variety of stores in Missouri, New Mexico, Idaho, Arizona, and Utah. If you’re in one of those states, stop reading this and head to the grocery store. Don’t take your good fortune for granted. Luckily, the rest of the U.S. shouldn’t be too far behind. Unluckily, this appears to be another limited run, so don’t miss your chance to try one of the best Dr Pepper flavors out there—if you see it, buy it.
