Coke came first because it was produced on a ship to the U.S. since they were running out of beer. Just kidding. But Coke did come first.

Coke 1886 The first sales were made at Jacob's Pharmacy in Atlanta, Georgia, on May 8, 1886, and for the first eight months only nine drinks were sold each day.

Dr. Pepper 1885 locally, nationally 1904 The exact date of Dr Pepper's conception is unknown, but the U.S. Patent Office recognizes December 1, 1885 as the first time Dr Pepper was served.

Pepsi 1898 The drink was first made in the 1890s, by pharmacist Caleb Bradham. In 1898, "Brad's drink" was changed to "Pepsi-Cola" and later trademarked on June 16, 1903.

So Dr Pepper was first, then Coke, then Pepsi in that order.

Hope this answers your question.
