Do you remember Diet Cherry Chocolate Dr. Pepper? It had a very short life here in the US and was only available for 5 short months in 2007-2008. I loved the stuff and couldn't get enough of it. One of my friends (Anita) even went to all the trouble to mail me some that she had after finding she didn't like it much. I was really bummed out when they discontinued it. They always do that whenever I like something. I hate that.
I have some Diet Cherry Dr. Pepper right now, so I decided to add some of my sugar-free Pasano chocolate syrup in it. Those are similar to Torani syrups, just like they put in fancy coffee drinks. I added a couple of teaspoons to my soda and it tastes EXACTLY like the old Diet Cherry Chocolate Dr. Pepper. Problem solved -- yay!
As I said yesterday -- it doesn't take much to make me happy.
We all need our little comfort foods.
ReplyDeleteNo, I don't remember this -- but I don't do pop. It's great that you've found a way to replicate it!
ReplyDeleteI don't remember that either. But I'm sure glad you're happy! ;)
ReplyDeleteHooray for finding a way to recreate your drink!
ReplyDeleteI love Dr. Pepper, but I must have missed this flavor when it came out for its short run. I'll have to give your recipe a try!
ReplyDeleteI remember those! And I'm glad I was able to send the remainder of mine to you, since you did enjoy them. :D
