Keurig Dr Pepper

Line-up includes the return of fan-favorite Dr Pepper Creamy Coconut

BURLINGTON, Mass. and FRISCO, Texas, Feb. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Keurig Dr Pepper (NASDAQ: KDP) is entering 2026 with an unrivaled commitment to flavor leadership, debuting innovations across its carbonated soft drinks (CSDs), teas, waters, energy and juice drinks portfolios. Building on the success of 2025's hits—like Dr Pepper Blackberry, last year's top CSD innovation¹—the lineup of more than 35 new varieties across owned and partner brands delivers what consumers want most: bold new flavors, twists on nostalgic favorites, more zero sugar options and expanded energy offerings.

"Consumers want beverages that fit every need throughout their day, and our 2026 lineup does exactly that while offering even more ways to enjoy the brands they love," said Katie Webb, VP of Innovation at Keurig Dr Pepper. "Our State of Beverages 2025 Trend Report uncovered that 44% of Americans, and an impressive 72% of Gen Z, try new beverages each month, underscoring the tremendous opportunity for flavor exploration and fan‑driven innovation. In fact, Dr Pepper Creamy Coconut was inspired by viral social media trends and its comeback is powered by pure consumer love – when fans rally this hard for a flavor, we listen."

Sips Inspired by the Moment
From dirty soda culture to throwback sips, playful concoctions and 'newstalgia' are helping consumers make the most of every moment. This year's lineup leans into that energy with limited-time drops of bold, indulgent flavor mashups that feel familiar yet fresh, perfectly timed for summer moments and seasonal celebrations.

• Dr Pepper Creamy Coconut: A decadently "dirty" fan‑favorite returns – Dr Pepper's iconic 23‑flavor blend combined with refreshing, summery coconut flavor for a smooth, creamy indulgence available for a limited time starting in April.
• Snapple Two Hundred Fif‑TEA Party: This limited‑time summer blend pairs juicy raspberry flavored tea with lemonade for a berry‑meets‑citrus refresh in celebration of America's 250th birthday.
• 7UP Shirley Temple: Returning nationwide for the holiday season, this festive favorite pairs sweet pomegranate and crisp lemon-lime flavors for a playful twist on the nostalgic mocktail.
• A&W Root Beer Float: Enjoy all the creamy, vanilla‑kissed flavor of a classic float without the fuss: no spoon, no ice cream, mess – just pop and enjoy. Available for a limited time from beginning in July.

Modern Twists on Iconic Classics

Citrus-Inspired Innovation
Citrus continues to dominate as the #1 preferred flavor profile among younger shoppers³, who crave refreshing, flavor‑forward beverages. This year's lineup leans into that momentum with vibrant, juicy flavor profiles designed to stand out on shelf.

More Choice, Less Sugar
Zero sugar continues to outpace the CSD category, driving 6x more dollar growth than regular varieties⁵, as consumers look for balance without sacrificing flavor. All 2026 CSD innovations will be offered in both regular and zero sugar options. And now, more zero sugar options are hitting the juice aisle.

• Mott's Zero Sugar Juice Drinks: For the first time ever, Mott's is introducing a Zero Sugar juice drink line, expanding Zero-sugar options for families. Launching nationwide in March alongside refreshed packaging and new sauce pouch innovations, Mott's brings its trusted taste into a lighter, modern format.

Flavor‑Driven Fuel 
Energy shoppers, especially younger consumers, are leaning into recognizable, irresistible flavors and right‑sized formats that fit more moments, and our owned and partner brands are ready with a strong lineup to meet that demand this year.
