If it's not Dublin Dr. Pepper, I'm not going to waste the calories :)

I am addicted to Coke Zero...and Disneyland Mint Juleps. But not at the same time.

The original most original soft drink. :D:

It's the oldest running maker of Dr. Pepper and still uses cane sugar with the original recipe. Based in Texas.

If I drank sugared drinks, it's the way I'd go. :(

:thumbsup:

Not a Dr. Pepper fan but totally understand preferring cane sugar to corn syrup (although I'd probably be fine with beet sugar too, or at least I am when cooking). For a long time you could still get the sugar-sweetened A&W at one of the drive-ins, and I'd drive past two of them to get there.

Word on the street is God visit's Dublin, TX at least once a week to pick up a case or two. Like everyone else said, it is made with pure cane surgar in a small plant in Dublin, TX. You can get it online, and many stores sell it. If you go to the restaurant, Love and War in Texas, you can get it there.

They put it in cans, 20oz plastic bottle, or my favorite (and pricey) way to go is in a glass bottle. Come to Texas, I'll buy you one :)

We do, but it is beet sugar, except around passover time when they do production runs with cane sugar and you can buy a Kosher Coke! I saw a case of Kosher coke yesterday in metro, so there is still some around.
I believe they always use cane for the 7-up, at least in the TO area.
