Keurig Dr Pepper is starting 2026 with a strong focus on offering exciting new flavors across its drink range, including sodas, teas, waters, energy drinks, and juices. After the success of 2025's Dr Pepper Blackberry, which was a top hit, the company is introducing over 35 new flavors across its own and partner brands. These new drinks will offer bold flavors, twists on classic favorites, more zero sugar options, and expanded energy drink choices.
This year, the company is embracing fun, creative flavors and limited-time releases that are perfect for summer and seasonal celebrations. Some familiar drinks are getting a fresh look and new flavors, including a fruitier take on ginger ale.
Citrus flavors are still very popular, especially among younger consumers, and this year’s drinks lineup includes refreshing, juicy flavors to grab attention. Zero sugar options are growing in popularity, with these drinks seeing more growth than regular sodas, and the company is offering zero sugar versions of all its new carbonated drinks. Additionally, more zero sugar options are now available in the juice aisle.
Energy drink fans, especially younger shoppers, are looking for drinks with great flavors and convenient sizes. Keurig Dr Pepper has a strong selection of new energy drinks this year to meet that demand.
Finally, the company’s partner brands are also rolling out vibrant, wellness-focused drinks to bring fresh options nationwide.
