San Antonio-based Whataburger has reintroduced its Dr Pepper Shake.
You could say “The Dr is in.”

San Antonio-based burger chain Whataburger has reintroduced its Dr Pepper Shake — a creamy blend of vanilla ice cream base and Dr Pepper syrup — for a limited time.

While milkshake purists may scoff at anything other than vanilla, chocolate or strawberry variations, Whataburger is no stranger to off-the-beaten-path flavors. Its past limited-edition shakes include salted caramel, peaches and cream and banana pudding, to name a few.

The Dr Pepper milkshake debuted in 2019 and has been reintroduced several times since, always as a limited-edition item. Prices and availability vary by market.
