Huh. Well, okay, I guess I might have to try that. As someone who used to like dr. pepper though, it still seems absolutely strange and incomprehensible that a cheesecake (even with that recipe) would be anything like the drink.
Naturally the textures aren’t even remotely similar. It’s just that Dr Pepper to me has a very pronounced bitter almond flavour. I know a lot of people associate that with cherries, so I think for people like that, our cheesecake would probably taste more like cherries.
When processed, maraschino cherries often have bitter almond oil added as a flavour enhancer, hence the connection to cherries.
