Dr Pepper

Dr Pepper is a carbonated soft drink that was created in the late 19th century by pharmacist Charles Alderton. The drink is known for its unique blend of 23 flavors, which gives it a distinct taste that is different from other soft drinks.

History

Dr Pepper was created in Waco, Texas in the late 1800s by a pharmacist named Charles Alderton. Alderton was experimenting with different flavor combinations for his soda fountain, and eventually came up with a unique blend of 23 flavors that became known as Dr Pepper. The drink was first sold at the soda fountain in the drugstore where Alderton worked, and quickly became popular among local residents. The drink was eventually bottled and sold in other parts of Texas, and later expanded to other parts of the United States. Today, Dr Pepper is owned by Keurig Dr Pepper, a beverage company that produces a variety of soft drinks and other beverages.
