Who owns Mr. Pibb?

Quick history snapshot

  • The drink was originally introduced in the 1970s to challenge Dr Pepper’s dominance in the spiced soda category.
  • It was first launched under the name “Peppo,” but after legal action from Dr Pepper’s owner, Coca-Cola changed the name to Mr. Pibb.

  • After years of lower visibility and use of the “Pibb Xtra” branding, Coca-Cola brought back the Mr. Pibb name in 2025 with a bolder formula and more caffeine.
