Top Comments of this video!! :3
Growing up in Hong Kong I became accustomed to drinking hot Coca-Cola. Since Dr. Pepper isn't a thing there Coke is much more commonly used, and we'd add ginger along with lemon. It's often found in many local cafes. After I moved overseas my Canadian and American friends always reacted with confusion I told them about this, so I'm glad I now have this video to rebut them!

In the mid-40s my Grandfather's sister moved from Oklahoma to California, and to her great lament, Dr. Pepper was not available in her new sunny home state. So, when her brothers and sisters went out to CA to visit, they brought a six pack for her to enjoy. The last bottle they didn't open; instead, they wrapped a piece of paper around the bottle and all of the family signed/dated the paper. Each time they had a family reunion, they signed/dated the same bottle. I still have the unopened bottle (flat, but the seal is still tight enough that very little has been lost to evaporation) with the paper still intact.

We tried this today with the Dr Pepper made with real sugar. My husband and I really enjoyed it! I added a few lemon slices to it, because it was soooo sweet. I can see how it would be comforting to drink when you’re sick. It reminded me of the old timey horehound candies you find at the farmers market.

I was trying to make some infused bourbon as a "healing potion" to give out at a halloween party in little "potion bottles." What I ended up with was bourbon that tasted like Dr. Pepper.
It had:
- black cardamom pods
- cinnamon sticks (both cassia and ceylon cinnamon)
- black peppercorns
- star anise
those spices were toasted in a skillet before adding
- dried smoked cherries
- whole vanilla bean, split lengthwise
- orange zest

I first learned of hot Dr. Pepper from a Japanese thread on twitter. Somebody was asking if anybody remembered or had ever seen a hot Dr. Pepper dispenser. It got a lot of discussion about people who remembered seeing them in the 1970s, and one person who had a local corner store run by an elderly couple that still had one (a heated dr. pepper dispenser) in the 1990s.

We did this when I was a kid for a couple of years. We didn't use just lemon though. We also used orange slices and maraschino cherries. Also, ours didn't really go flat, but retained some carbonation. We probably didn't take it all the way up to 180 degrees, though (which seems a bit excessive). Also, we were using original cane sugar Dr Pepper, which may have had something to do with it. (Cane sugar Dr Pepper is still available at Walmart and Amazon.)

I actually have a little booklet they gave to visitors of the st. louis world's fair that somehow made it's way over to germany, rumored via my great grandfather, who was supposedly visiting said fair. it's a little family heirloom now and it's always very entertaining to go through it. It is mind blowing to see what they made for an effort.
