1
Prepare the Glass
Begin by selecting a tall glass and fill it with ice cubes. This will help keep your drink chilled and refreshing.
2
Add Carbonated Water
Pour 200 ml of carbonated water over the ice cubes in the glass. This will be the base of your Fountain Dr. Pepper.
3
Mix in High Fructose Corn Syrup
Add 40 ml of high fructose corn syrup to the carbonated water. Stir gently to combine the syrup with the water.
4
Incorporate Flavors
Sprinkle 0.5 tsp of natural and artificial flavors into the mixture. This will give your drink its signature taste.
5
Add Phosphoric Acid
Add a pinch of phosphoric acid (0.1 tsp) to the mixture. This adds a slight tanginess to the drink.
6
Include Caffeine
Add 0.03 tsp of caffeine to the mixture for that energizing kick.
7
Color the Drink
Stir in 0.5 tsp of caramel color to give your drink the classic dark hue of Dr. Pepper.
8
Finish with Citric Acid
Finally, add a pinch (0.02 tsp) of citric acid to enhance the flavor profile. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
9
Serve
Your homemade Fountain Dr. Pepper is ready! Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing taste.
