We don't have Dr. Pepper, but we have Root Beer

[Dids]

My all to frequently told Flaming Dr. Pepper Story:

Friends go to bar, get FDP's, bartender makes big production of doing the flamethrower thing to light all the shots. They slam beer is is expect.

Alex Rodriguez is there (this was a while ago obv) and thinks this whole operation is pretty interesting. He orders one as well.





AND SIPS IT (one can only assume with his pinky out).

GOSH.

While Dr. Pepper might not have prune juice, I feel like it's kinda prune flavory. Mostly it takes like "different".

a few places around here that don't carry dr. pepper (greatest soda evar) offer coke with grenadine instead. not exact, but does the trick.

Flaming Dr. Pepper

made by filling a shot glass 3/4 full with Amaretto, and 1/4 Bacardi 151 (or Everclear) to make it flammable. (The two liquors are not mixed; rather, the high-proof alcohol is layered on top to burn more easily.) The shot is then set on fire and dropped into a glass half-filled with beer

This tastes very much like Dr. Pepper, which tastes very different than cherry coke.

Exactly. There is definitely some almond in Dr. Pepper.

I think it was some sort of kabob of weird meat. I can't find that part of the transcript. Do they even show that episode anymore? I thought they stopped airing it because it had the WTC in it.

EDIT: Found it. Khlav kalash. I can't seem to figure out what it is, but I did find two clips of it...one in German and one in Spanish.

quids,

Guinness, wtf?

The proper beer to use in a flaming Dr. Pepper is a fine malt liquor, preferably Mickey's.

Dr Pepper is the oldest major soft drink in the U.S. It was first made and sold in 1885 in Waco, Texas.

Wow...what is most amazing is that I almost started this very thread myself a few days ago. I too, have run into countless waitresses that will say "nope, no Dr. Pepper, but we have Root Beer", and vice-versa.

What I was going to add, however, is that I've always wondered why so many restaurants will feature Coke products...with Dr. Pepper (I believe McDonalds is the latest to do this).

How do those agreements get structured? Coke agrees to supply the beverages to the restaurant, but somehow doesn't get pissed that they sell a Pepsi product (Dr. Pepper) instead of Mr. Pibb? Doesn't seem like Coke would be willing to do this. Who knows?

How the [censored] am I supposed to slam a guiness? I'm pretty much the fastest beer drinking I know, and guiness would own my damn soul.
