Dr. Pepper.

It's the only thing I can think of that has tons of copy-cats but not one of those copy-cats comes even remotely close to replicating the original.

Fellow Dr Pepper enjoyer here! 😃 same here, it just has such a specific and indescribable taste and I've yet to drink anything that is even remotely close to the flavour of Dr Pepper

Barbeque water

Did you know that Dr Pepper was once marketed to also be drunk hot - a bit like mulled wine? Search for “hot Dr Pepper” on YT and prepare to look at your drink in a whole new light.

That taste is a dash of pepper with conceit that has been fermenting for 8 years.

I still haven’t gotten over the loss of the original Mr Pibb flavor
