With subsequent sips, Dr Pepper&#8217;s 23 flavors come back to the forefront, with the cream soda lingering in the background. The flavor combination is definitely a pleasant and harmonious one. I would guess at a 2:1 ratio of Dr Pepper to cream soda. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Dr-Pepper-Cream-Soda-Closeup.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dr Pepper  Cream Soda Closeup\" title=\"Dr Pepper &#038; Cream Soda Closeup.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As a result of the pairing, the &#8220;spicy bite&#8221; that the original Dr Pepper is known for becomes muted, but because of the way the flavors take turns in the foreground, it is always clear that this is a Dr Pepper product. Interestingly, more so than its other flavor combinations like Cherry Vanilla, Dr Pepper &#038; Cream Soda manages to achieve a smooth &#8220;cream finish&#8221; feeling characteristic of cream soda.  <\/p>\n<p>Although I wouldn&#8217;t necessarily describe myself as a purist, I tend to prefer the original Dr Pepper to any of its flavored incarnations. However, I was really impressed at how well Dr Pepper &#038; Cream Soda recreates the subtle flavor of cream soda without letting it get lost among the bolder flavors of Dr Pepper. I would drink this one again. <\/p>\n<h3>Is there anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>Due to its varying colors and flavors (including everything from raspberry to cotton candy), cream soda can mean different things to different regions. To me, Dr Pepper &#038; Cream Soda&#8217;s flavor profile most closely resembles A&#038;W Cream Soda, which makes sense considering the same company owns them. <\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>Dr Pepper &#038; Cream Soda expertly recreates and balances a sweet, creamy vanilla flavor with its original formula. It made me wonder what other delicious, unexpected soda combinations are waiting to be discovered. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $4.49<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> 6 pack of 20-ounce bottles <br \/>\n<strong>Purchased at:<\/strong> Giant Eagle<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 8 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> (per 20 oz.) 210 calories, 0 grams of fat, 80 milligrams of sodium, 56 grams of carbohydrates, 55 grams of sugar, and 0 grams of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is Dr Pepper &#038; Cream Soda?
