I'm a DP drinker of more than 60 years - about to celebrate BD #69 in two weeks! Around 20 years ago, my doctor began the appeal to start removing as much real-sugar product from diet as possible - especially items with corn syrup/high fructose levels. Switch to Diet DP was fairly seamless - really the only true "diet" product that retains as close to the same flavor as regular DP!! That said, I don't stray from Diet DP very often - mainly when I find myself somewhere that doesn't serve DP products at all. Along with switching to Diet DP, I have begun a gradual tapering of how many either 16.9 or 20 oz. products I allow myself per day - usually only one, but am now tapering to 3-4 a week if possible due to increased glucose levels. I was at a convenience store last week and saw a new flavor of Dr Pepper [in fact I believe there were 3-4 new "flavored" DP brands in the freezer. The one that caught my attention was Oreo Dr. Pepper,Sugar-Free which were packaged in 12 oz. cans. I knew that I wanted to try this flavored DP drink, being that one of my other "food/drink addictions" are Oreos! In addition, the tming worked out really well because my younger sister and B-I-L were in town for a short visit. I purchased 4 - 12 oz cans of our Oreo flavored DP Sugar-Free and brought them home so we could sample them and see if this was a good blending of two of my/our favorite things, or if it ma not meet up to expectations.!?! BTW- I very rarely stray from the original flavor due to the fat that I drink Diet DP for one reason only - I like the way it tastes - and I don't want that "taste" to be changed or altered in an way if possible [I believe we call this a 'traditionalist']. Finally to the point of this review: After dinner that evening as the four of us [Wife & I and Sister & Brother in Law] were sitting and talking - and letting dinner tastes & smells settle - I brought out the four DP Oreo Sugar-Free flavored cans and, basically, became an interviewer/reviewer of this new product known as Oreo Dr Pepper Sugar-Free. I asked all to treat it as close to a testing environment as possible [without trying to be weird or pretentious about it. (BTW - none of the four of us are alcohol drinkers in any form). Anyway - 1) sniff/aroma test before actually tasting the beverage product; 2) brief sip test and write down initial thoughts on aroma and taste; 3) - brief fuller taste test and write down how closely the product tasted like Dr Pepper, if it was possible to taste an Oreo flavor at all - and to what level; if the flavor was not distinctively of Dr Pepper, what was the flavor each person was getting from the three simple tests of our survey?? Technically, there was a fourth question of my survey, and that was "would you purchase this product again - even if it were merely to do another fair sampling of the product?? So - our initial taste testing of the new product Oreo flavored Dr Pepper Sugar-Free had the following results: Wife - [not a real traditionalist, nor as big a fan as I regrading DP] - Sniff test = sensed first a chocolate smell (faint) and then a little stronger vanilla smell - ultimately it reminded her of the smell of a chocolate chip cookie or brownie as it was cooling; both sip & taste test = were the same - she felt it tasted much like a creme soda drink. Brother-In-Law - [a regular Diet DP drinker] - Sniff test = a creme' type of aroma, but not particularly similar to a creme soda smell - mainly that it didn't have an aroma like Dr Pepper at all. Sip & Taste tests = both the same impressions - again the flavoring of some type of creme' product, but not really distinctive enough to tell - and did not taste anh of the 'traditional' Dr Pepper flavorings that cause him to drink Dr Pepper/Diet Dr Pepper in the first place. Sister - [an occasional drinker of Diet DP, but also drinks Coke Zero] - Sniff test = she smelled/sensed some chocolate aromas, and felt that at least the aroma led her to believe that it might not taste like a "diet or sugar free product. Her sip & taste tests = pretty much mirrored her responses to the sniff test. She tasted some faint DP taste, but actually couldn't really tell if was a diet Dr Pepper product, or a diet Coke product. Finally, it was my turn to review [as stated - a traditionalist, long-time DP & diet DP drinker] Sniff test = really not a distinctive smell for me (admittedly a sufferer from hay fever and exposure to ragweed which is high this time of year in Texas - so olfactory senses are not always accurate). I really did not expect to get much aroma smell knowing my own lack of ability to discern many smells at all. Sip Test = I suppose I was disappointed from the beginning of the sip test that I did not taste ANY distinctive aroma or taste, either a Dr Pepper nor an Oreo aroma or taste!! The more full taste test proved to be even more disappointing, in that I could not make out any discernable taste or aroma that reminded me of either of the two food/drink combos that I/we were searching for in this taste testing experiment. Eventually, before completely finishing the product, I was able to discern a bit of a chocolate overtone flavor, but never any type of aroma/taste overall satisfaction that I was, in fact, drinking and tasting a product that was equally discernable to be both a classic Dr Pepper taste & aroma, but that or an Oreo cookie taste of mixed Chocolate & vanilla creme' filling. At the end of my "Very Unofficial Product Review of Oreo-Flavored Dr Pepper Sugar-Free", I aske one final question of my three family members and myself - "Would you buy this product if it were available in regular Grocery and Convenience stores close to you?? Unfortunately, the overwhelming answer to this question was ( and remains to be) NO!!!

To be honest, I was not sure what I would think of this. I grabbed it once when they were out of regular Dr. Pepper at the store. I will say, this is the ONLY diet soda I have ever tried that tastes almost just like the original. Very impressed! I will now actually buy this over the original when in stock, to get the taste buy avoid the calories.

DIet Dr. Pepper..Best tasting soft drink ever, but highly addictive ! Once you start drinking then you can't stop, you have to have them. After they destroy your teeth and your kidneys you want to stop, but you can't. You go to great lengths to find your next "fix". They should be outlawed !!

I wasn't even drinking any kind of pop because I'm not fond of it anymore. I tried Cherry dr. Pepper on a fluke and fell in love! I don't drink any other kind of Pop if I can't get Cherry dr. Pepper and sometimes it's hard in my little town to get it. I have asked all of the managers in the three stores that might sell it to get more in. I did try Chjerry Coke and wild Cherry Pepsi (which was a laugh) they are not at all satisfying like Cherry dr. Pepper is. I have told everybody that I know that they ought to try it. If you come to my house that's all you will get offered unless you just want water. I could go on and on I really could because I'm so impressed with a pump tasting so good that I wanted more I wanted a cold one I wanted one when I went to bed I would wanted Cherry dr. Pepper at my birthday party. I'm sure you get the hint.

I’ve always drunk Dr Pepper as a matter of fact my whole life my family are all Dr Pepper lovers. I switch to diet later in life and it’s never been a disappointment. I’m an expert with the mixture at fast food restaurants. It’s not to many of them that know the right mixture to taste well.

I must say although I love and enjoy drinking Dr Pepper, I can’t just hug one because of the sugar content. A Diet Dr Pepper tastes similar to that of a regular one, but you can tell the difference in taste. Some may say it tastes the same but I disagree. There’s no substitution for sugar. Yes Diet is tasty but doesn’t compare to the real sugar. Diet Dr Pepper is the perfect alternative if you’re trying to watch your figure.

I’ve had this discussion time and time again with several people who enjoy the original Dr Pepper taste and with those who seek zero/low sugar alternatives as well as those who drink regular sugary soda: Diet Dr Pepper may be the closest flavor profile to the original sugary soda I’ve ever tried! Delicious!

This is a tried and true favorite of mine. It truly tastes refreshing and delicious. It has a taste like no other. It has a taste that is one like peppery and yet different at the same time. It exceeded my expectations. I would definitely buy and recommend it again.

Diet Dr. Pepper is God's gift to the dieting world. It's so delicious and it doesn't give you the same "diet" taste that most other diet sodas would give you. It's so crisp and refreshing and affordable in the store. I have already told most of my friends about it and would recommend it to anybody that loves Dr. Pepper but are keeping your summer body goals in mind

I Was a loyal Coke drinker til I was diagnosed with diabetes... I decided to see if any diet drinks were tolerable since I still needed my caffiene fix..lol By far diet Dr.Pepper is the one.. It tastes great..and has next to no after taste , that someone would come to expect with a diet soda.
