After

Before

Extensive consumer research uncovered the insight that consumers used Dr Pepper more like a countline or snack rather than a thirst-quenching drink. People would choose a Dr Pepper as a mid-morning sweet treat. It delivers a reward much like chocolate. This was driven by its curious and complex flavour profile and thicker mouth feel. We looked at numerous designs exploring ways to amplify this perception of a more curious and complex taste perception.
