More than 19,000 cases of Dr Pepper Zero Sugar are being recalled after they were determined to have been mislabeled. The aluminum cans actually contain soda that is full of sugar, making them particularly unsafe for people with diabetes or who avoid sugar for other health reasons.

The voluntary recall, which was initiated by Florida-based distributor Pepsi Beverages Company on May 23 and is currently listed as “ongoing,” applies to 19,203 12-pack and 24-pack cases of 12-ounce (355 mL) cans labeled “Dr Pepper Zero Sugar.” The beverages inside the can contain the same amount of sugar — about 39 grams per can — found in regular Dr Pepper.

On Thursday, June 5, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration designated the recall “Class II,” meaning a “situation in which use of, or exposure to, a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”

The cans subject to recall were shipped to three states: Florida, Georgia and South Carolina. They feature the “Prod Code XXXXRS05165” along with a “Best by Date” of Feb 16, 2026, on the packaging.

The cans were “PRODUCED UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF CB Manufacturing Company, Inc., 5829 Pepsi Pl., Jacksonville, Florida, United States of America, 32216 - 904-443-0763 who is licensed to manufacture Keurig Dr. Pepper branded products,” according to the FDA.

While the FDA did not specify consumer actions to be taken in response to the recall, if you find yourself in possession of the cans mislabeled as Dr Pepper Zero Sugar, you should probably either dispose of them or return them to your place of purchase.
