Well, it's once again time for another new beverage review here at TMW and today I present to you..
Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper
What a big complicated name. Anyway, the bottle itself is nothing too fancy but it must be enough to be getting everyone curious. At the gas station where I get all this stuff it was the last bottle there, how's that for impressive? Paying the $1.25 I took my find back into the car and braved the ice storm to bring you this short review. I'll say this is an exclusive too as according to the Dr Pepper website this stuff is not even supposed to be available to buy around here until January 3rd.
Opening up the bottle the first thing I noticed were the bubbles. They had a reddish tint to them clearly showing that this was indeed a cherry flavored soda. Smelling it also backed up this observation. But how about the most important part, the taste? Well, it definitely has that familiar diet taste of fake sugar. The Dr. Pepper flavor is there and so is the cherry. Where's the vanilla? No idea. You can't really taste it at all. The website tells me that there should be a hint of it in there, nope. Maybe the non diet would taste better as other people in the house agree with me on the vanilla taste lacking.
As I sit here I think I am more interested in Mortal Kombat: The Movie which is currently on TV. I guess that isn't saying much about this soda. Anyway, 3 cheeses out of 5 for this stuff. It tastes like Dr Pepper which is a good thing and it tastes like cherries, which is also a good thing. Bad things are it has that annoying diet taste and the vanilla is completely missing.
And I know this review stinks but I am tired. Good night.
