Pibb
First introduced as "Peppo" to compete against Dr Pepper, the name was changed in 1972 to "Mr. Pibb" after Dr Pepper sued the Coca-Cola company for trademark infringement. Mr. Pibb had a less expansive blend of flavors. The original test markets for Mr. Pibb in 1972 were located in Waco, Texas, the birthplace of Dr Pepper, though the Dr Pepper company moved to Dublin, Texas soon after creating the drink.
In 2001, a new formula called Pibb Xtra was introduced with added cinnamon flavor, replacing the original formula in many parts of the United States.
In 2010, the description on the can was changed to "Spicy Cherry Soda."
