PUBLISHING DATE
September 22, 2022

Fans of Pepsi have the chance to mix and match their favourite treat with the brand’s latest creation.

Lovers of the iconic soft drink can now indulge in a new flavour reminiscent of summer campfires with its new series of S’mores flavours.

The new range includes three distinct flavours all packed into individual 7.5oz Pepsi mini cans to encourage mixing and matching your way to finding the perfect beverage combination. The new flavours are:

– Toasty Marshmallow: An entirely new concoction taking a marshmallow base with layers of toasted notes to mimic a light fireside taste

– Graham Cracker: Infused with notes of honey and cinnamon to achieve the perfect balanced graham cracker flavour

– Chocolate: Containing dominant tones of cocoa with hints of vanilla to create an extra creamy sweetness, mimicking a slightly melted chocolate flavour

Chief marketing operator Todd Kaplan commented: “S’mores is one of the most unapologetically delicious treats that everyone likes to enjoy in a different way. So, we at Pepsi are thrilled to introduce an entirely new way to s’more with our Pepsi S’mores Collection.

“This newest drop allows fans to construct their own s’mores to their liking, with the perfect amounts of graham, marshmallow, and chocolate, in a deliciously indulgent drink without any of the mess. We can’t wait for fans to try it.”
