When was the last time you had Dr Pepper? I don't recall it ever having a kick to it. It always tasted somewhat like cherry cola to me.
The only North American soft drink I can think of that perhaps had a kick to it about 2 decades ago perhaps was root beer because of those Barq's has bite commercials. I recall A&W and Mug's was very sweet in comparison and Barq's was a lot more peppery or carbonated or something.
