Dr Pepper Cream Swirl is available for a year

Dr Pepper has launched a limited-edition variant.

Dr Pepper Cream Swirl is available until February 2027 in 330ml cans (RRP: £1.05), 500ml and 2L bottles, as well as 8x330ml multipacks.

The NPD was designed to help retailers tap into the “growing demand for bold, limited-edition flavours”, said brand owner Coca-Cola Europacific Partners (CCEP).

The launch will be supported by a marketing campaign, including an on-pack promotion offering shoppers the chance to win prizes via a scannable QR code.

Campaign activity will also include ’Dare or Darey’ challenges across TikTok and Snapchat, along with sampling through a ‘Dr Pepper Cream Swirl Float’ experience.

Cream Swirl follows the 2025 launch of Dr Pepper Cherry Crush Zero Sugar, which has delivered 38% of total brand growth, said CCEP, citing NIQ data. The cherry variant has now been made a permanent line.

“We’re really excited for fans to try the new Cream Swirl flavour, building on the huge success of the limited-edition Dr Pepper Cherry Crush Zero Sugar last year,” said Rob Yeomans, vice-president of commercial development at CCEP GB.

“Limited editions are a great way to drive excitement, spark conversation and bring new shoppers into the brand – all while helping our customers boost their soft drink sales.

“The supporting campaign is packed with the personality that Dr Pepper always brings – with eye-catching POS and digital assets via My.CCEP.com, we can’t wait to see how retailers get behind it and activate in store.”
