Nectar of God, the Recipe

Carbonated Water
High Fructose Corn Syrup And/Or Sugar
Caramel Color
Phosphoric Acid
Artificial and Natural Flavors
Sodium Benzoate (Preservative)
Caffeine

Otherwise known as my fuel a la mode, Dr. Pepper. (If you listen long enough, you can hear my audibly deep, contented sigh) Nothing like it. I wonder if this delightful soft drink was around when Jesus walked the earth, if it would have been truly His drink of choice - the actual, historical nectar of God? I think a substantial argument can be made for that. At least by me.

I can't believe caffeine is last on the list of ingredients. Clearly a typo there.
