Dr Pepper is a unique blend of 23 flavors, which include cola, cherry, licorice, amaretto (almond, vanilla, blackberry, apricot, blackberry, caramel, pepper, anise, sarsaparilla, ginger, molasses, lemon, plum, orange, nutmeg, cardamon, allspice, coriander, juniper, birch, and prickly ash). The exact combination of these flavors is a closely guarded secret, but superfans have attempted to crack the code and have come up with a list of the most likely flavors. Some people describe the flavor as a sugary candy cherry forward flavor with a herbal undertone. Dr Pepper also has a cherry vanilla flavor, which is a blend of cherry, vanilla, and the authentic taste of Dr Pepper.
