Dr Pepper fans have a new flavor to look forward to, and this one puts a nostalgic twist on the classic soda. The brand is introducing Dr Pepper Ice Cream Float, a new flavor designed to taste like the beloved soda-and-ice-cream combination.
The new variety blends Dr Pepper’s signature 23 flavors with a creamy vanilla ice cream flavor, along with rich notes of caramel and butterscotch.
The result is expected to bring together the familiar taste of Dr Pepper with the sweet, creamy flavors associated with an old-fashioned ice cream float.

Dr Pepper Ice Cream Float Set To Hit Stores In Early 2027
Even better for fans who like to keep their options open, Dr Pepper Ice Cream Float will be available in both full-sugar and zero-sugar versions.
While the flavor is generating excitement as a fall-inspired addition to the Dr Pepper lineup, fans will have to wait a little longer to get their hands on it. The new flavor is expected to arrive at major retailers in early 2027 and is planned as a permanent addition to the brand’s lineup.
That means this isn’t expected to be a short-lived seasonal flavor. Once it hits stores, Dr Pepper fans should have plenty of opportunities to try the new creamy combination.
And if you’re already wondering exactly when and where you’ll be able to find it, more details are expected to be announced closer to the launch. Store information and a specific release date have not yet been provided.
For now, Dr Pepper lovers can add Ice Cream Float to their list of upcoming flavors to watch for. With vanilla ice cream, caramel and butterscotch joining the brand’s signature 23-flavor blend, it could offer a very different take on the classic soda.
