Pepsi is planning to debut a brand-new flavor this month, marking its first “permanent” addition to the brand’s beverage portfolio in four years.

The latest permanent Pepsi drinks come just months after Coca-Cola discontinued its cherry vanilla flavor on Sept. 4. The drink company posted the announcement on X that they discontinued Coca-Cola Cherry Vanilla “due to consumers' taste preferences and lifestyles constantly changing.” They also discontinued Diet Coke with Splenda in September.

Calling all Pepsi lovers, it’s time to raise a toast to 2025! The cola giant has just announced its newest creation: Pepsi Wild Cherry & Cream. Launching nationwide this January, Pepsi Wild Cherry & Cream combines the bold citrus flavor of Pepsi with indulgent cherry and creamy vanilla for a nostalgic twist.

The original Pepsi Wild Cherry has been around since 1988, so it’s only natural that the brand would seek to put a distinctly modern twist on the nostalgic soda. In fact, Pepsi points to the recent resurgence of fruit-forward flavors as one driving inspiration behind the development of the Wild Cherry & Cream offering.
