As part of its ongoing 'Pick Your Pepper' campaign, Dr. Pepper has debuted unicorn-clad sodas. With unicorn-themed snack, stationary, and decor already available, it seems only fitting to have a soda branded with the colorful mythical creature.
The Pick Your Pepper campaign is a summer promotion that involves a wide variety of quirky labels, each of which is designed to match the personalities of different consumers. So far the labels have included hilarious cartoon lamas, retro space designs, and toothy shark motifs. Now fans can also get their hands on bottles with mythical unicorn rearing against a bright purple background. Fans can even score a free Unicorn Dr. Pepper T-shirt if they buy three participating 12-packs or 7.5-ounce can packs of the soda.
