Things are getting a little wild at PepsiCo! The company has announced its expanding its cherry-flavored options with a permanent new creamy product. This month it’s launching Pepsi Wild Cherry Cream.
Pepsi is jumping on the current cherry craze, a fad we were definitely/totally/for sure aware of before the soda giant told us about it. On January 20 it will offer fans of Wild Cherry an even more intense way to enjoy a cherry-flavored take on its iconic soft drink. That’s when both Pepsi and Pepsi Zero Sugar Wild Cherry and Cream will arrive in stores. And once they do, they’re staying there. This new flavor isn’t limited-edition or seasonal. It’s sticking around full-time.
What will it actually taste like? Here’s how Pepsi describes the flavors and experience of drinking this sweet soda:
The initial burst of sweet cherry flavor is what people love about the Pepsi Wild Cherry. Then, the sweet, fruity effervescence is followed by a smooth, creamy vanilla swirl, delivering a practically silky mouthfeel. It’s a refreshing and satisfying blend that’s sure to delight your taste buds and make every sip a moment of pure enjoyment.
Both the original and Zero Sugar versions of Pepsi Wild Cherry & Cream will come to stores nationwide in 12-ounce cans. Those are the permanent editions. However, for a brief time you will also be able to nab them in 20-ounce bottles.
Pepsi is the latest soft drink company to offer up a creamier take on this signature soda. Two years ago Dr. Pepper released a Strawberries & Cream option. We liked that. We also like Pepsi Wild Cherry, so we’re optimistic about this new combo. Just like we’re excited to learn “cherries” are a thing. Obviously that fad won’t last, but if Pepsi Wild Cherry & Cream is as good as we hope it surely will.
