Better than the current formula in the grocery store
I've never purchased this via Amazon, but we used to live in Waco, TX and were able to buy this at the Dr. Pepper Museum there (Dr. Pepper was invented in Waco). The glass bottles are the best, and the smaller size is perfect for a nice treat (they're about 100 calories each). This original recipe is better than what you buy in the store today - it has pure cane sugar as opposed to corn syrup, and you can taste the difference. Nice and crisp; a sharp sweetness that just can't be captured with corn syrup. I miss being able to drive a few miles to get this! We stocked up before we moved, but we've run out and are craving it :)I like how the big beverage companies are going "retro" and re-introducing their original tasty recipes with real sugar, and this is no exception. This is a great gift for yourself or a Dr. Pepper fan, because I don't think you can find it outside of Texas.

Think late 40s, early 50s timeline. Howard Hughes was brewing Grand Prize beer and Golden Age soft drinks in orange, grape and strawberry (which was called "Big Red" by my name-unconscious younger brother). All soda came in 6 or 8 ounce bottles, except Royal Crown (RC) Cola, whose big marketing ploy was a 12 ounce bottle - "Twice as much for the same price!" In the summer, we would visit our grandparents in Erath County, only 14 miles from the golden hub - the Dublin Dr Pepper Company. The neighborhood grocery sold Dublin DP, and my grandfather was very fond of it. If we wanted a Coke, we had to cross the street and buy it ourselves. I drank DDP rather than blow my movie money on a difference of opinion. As we got older, we spent fewer summer weeks at our grandparents' house,...

THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE HABIT
This is great stuff NOT to be shared. It is very pricey but very good. It makes the new stuff pale by comparison.
