it comes in pints?

Oh, yuk.

"chocolate" and "artificial sweetener" should NEVER be in the same product.

(Nor should chocolate and Dr. Pepper, but that's another matter.)

Ew! Makes me think of my mom's Faygo diet chocolate soda from the '80s.

(I do, however, like the cherry vanilla one.)

Chocolate, cherry, diet... there is so much wrong here.

I think I will be sick.

I don't think I combined scotch and diet dp whilst in college. Since we used to make scotch ice cream floats though I can't vouch that i never added some to regular dp.

Attention Dr Pepper - it was a Weird Al song. It was NOT meant as an invitation to actually turn your product into diet chocolate soda, such as the narrator purchased at the Last Chance Gas Station. Cut it out.

(And I thought I was unwell before this...)

Having been subjected to Mr. Pibb (gross!) while in college in Virginia, I almost wish we'd thought of putting scotch in it.

I don't recall ever mixing anything with DP while in college. In fact, I don't recall drinking DP until much later in life (and then only the diet stuff); in college, I was a Mountain Dew dude.

However, the concession stand at the college football stadium offered hot Doctor Pepper; mulled, not boiling. I never tried it; I had no interest (at that time) in drinking cold prune juice, God forbid hot prune juice.

I like DP and I like Pibb. Hell, I'll even (occasionally) drink that cheap knockoff from Costco. But hot, mulled, or anything else done to it is just bizarre.

And I'm still weirded out by that Scotch thing.

on the Dr. Pepper and scotch... may I introduce you to my friend the Southern Doctor."

That's the only thing I can think of.

There's also a drink called a Flaming Dr. Pepper, but it does not involve the actual use of Dr. Pepper... probably because setting Dr. Pepper on fire is a crime against humanity.

that second drink is called a Flaming Doctor Pepper, stupid html tags

Tag fixed. But that fella worries me a little.

Ah, Mason jars! What I remember about them is that's how we got our moonshine delivered.

Nasty stuff, but effective.

Of course real Texans don't put scotch in their Dr. Pepper, they put Whiskey or 'Moonshine in it - not some overly expensive foppish sop from a peat-bog. Sheesh.

All Dr. Pepper of whatever variety is utterly foul. Those who enjoy it are welcome to it.

Cola and chocolate DO NOT GO TOGETHER.

I love Dr Pepper. Going to Baylor - in Waco, where Dr Pepper lived after its initial creation in Dublin, Texas, - you HAD to like Dr Pepper. Now, that I'm the diet soda queen, I like Diet Dr Pepper. I like the Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper if I can dilute it with Diet Dr Pepper. It is took strong on its own. The new stuff with the chocolate in it just sounds disgusting - even to me!!!

Au Contrair, Alan, Chocolate Cokes have been around for decades, since my mom was a kid, and they're one of my favorites. Of course, the only way to really make a good one is regular coke and chocolate syrup.

And I've never tried scotch and DP, but bourbon and root beer is delish.
