There’s a sippy cup made so the medicine is taken first followed by a shot of juice or whatever so your kid continues to fall for it.

Well, if you were accepting Pepsi over Coke, you probably couldn't tell the difference.

Huge difference. Coke isn't good imho, I'd rather have Pepsi. Dr. Pepper beats them all.

I agree, there is a big difference. But, I'm a Coke person. But, hey, whatever floats your boat.

I agree mostly but sometimes I feel ‘Pibb Xtra’ > Dr.Pepper. But this is all really subjective and dependent on one’s taste really.

It grinds my gears when I ask for Dr. Pepper at a restaurant and they try and sub it with Mr. Pibb. Always tell after that first sip!

Pepsi has a sweeter citrus taste to it. It’s better for sipping. Coke is better while drinking a while glass.
