Our take on the Diet Dr Pepper Soda Pop, 12 fl oz Cans, 24 Pack

Diet Dr Pepper is a zero-sugar cola-alternative soda built on the brand's 23-flavor blend, sold here as 12 fl oz cans in a 24-pack. Its draw is the flavor: it keeps the original Dr Pepper's amaretto-and-cherry-leaning taste closer than most diet sodas keep theirs, which is why it outsells many zero-sugar rivals. It suits people who want a full-flavored diet soda for meals, a stocked fridge or an office. Against Diet Coke and Coke Zero it is sweeter and more complex; against Diet Coke it is less sharp and less cola-forward.

Best forDiet soda drinkers who want full flavorStocking a fridge, office or breakroomMeals, gatherings and road tripsPeople avoiding sugar who still want a soft drink
