By Matt Sidney
There’s nothing like a sip of something special to bring back the sweetest memories. This season, 7UP is turning the nostalgia up to eleven with their latest creation, the 7UP Shirley Temple. Crafted with the care you’ve come to expect from the iconic soda brand, this new drink promises a delightful blend of nostalgia and refreshment just in time for the holidays.
Remember those family dinners out where the highlight for any kid was ordering a Shirley Temple? That vibrant, sweet mocktail made you feel all grown-up. Well, now 7UP has bottled that childhood joy with a new twist that’s sure to please not just the kids but also the kid in every adult. The 7UP Shirley Temple is a refreshing take on the classic, mixing the traditional flavors of pomegranate and cherry with 7UP’s citrusy fizz.
As Andrew Springate, Chief Marketing Officer at Keurig Dr Pepper, puts it, “We’re bringing a sweet reminder of the magic of childhood with a contemporary burst of flavorful refreshment.” This new drink embodies everything beloved about the original mocktail while infusing it with modern flavor notes that are sure to resonate during the festive season.
7UP is bringing a classic twist on holiday cheer
Starting October 15th, soda lovers can find this limited-time treat in two-liter bottles and 12-packs of 12-ounce cans at major retailers across the U.S. And for those who watch their sugar intake, rejoice! A Zero Sugar version will also be hitting the shelves, ensuring everyone gets a taste of the fun.
The 7UP Shirley Temple isn’t just about quenching your thirst, it’s about creating moments. Imagine adding this effervescent delight to your holiday gatherings. It’s perfect for toasting good times or simply enjoying a quiet, cozy night in. And if you’re feeling a bit more adventurous, 7UP even suggests a “Dirty Shirley” recipe that mixes the soda with a splash of vodka and cherry juice, topped with maraschino cherries for a grown-up twist on the classic.
Beyond just sipping, this drink invites creativity. Mix it with whiskey or bourbon for a cherry-infused take on a Manhattan, or pair it with gin to complement its floral notes. The possibilities are as festive and endless as the holiday season itself.
As we roll into the most wonderful time of the year, keep an eye out for this festive beverage. Whether you’re reliving cherished memories or making new ones, the 7UP Shirley Temple is here to make this holiday season a little sweeter and a lot more bubbly.
