I became a hopeless Dr Pepper junkie while growing up in West Texas, where my grandfather A.K. Lebkowsky, a beer wholesaler by trade, bottled Dr Pepper during prohibition. When somebody mentioned the secret formula for DP my father told how A.K.'s partner Harry Stalcup mixed up his own DP syrup when they ran short one time. He could only remember two ingredients, prune juice and peach juice. This article in the Austin Chronicle gives the history of the drink, which has become an international favorite. What they left out his the link for ordering online from Old Doc's Soda Shop in Dublin, Texas, where they still brew DP with actual sugar, not corn (ugh) syrup. Link Saturday, September 08, 2001 Here's a site we really need - Purportal.com is billed as an "anti-bunk toolkit" containing tools and references for deflating hoaxes. Link |
