7UP has given us a gift this holiday season. A brand spanking new limited edition flavor \u2014 Shirley Temple 7UP! Woo hoo! Santa finally read my letters. Opening doors for people and being a narc on folks who fart in elevators really paid off this year.<\/p>\n

Wait a minute.<\/p>\n

A pomegranate AND cherry flavored 7UP? There\u2019s been a seasonal Pomegranate 7UP<\/a> before, and Cherry 7UP has been around for decades. So this new Shirley Temple 7UP is just a combination of two previous varieties, making it a not-quite-a-brand-spanking-new limited edition flavor. Bah humbug!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also available in a Zero Sugar version, and along with 12-packs, there\u2019s a 2-liter version, so share this festive drink with your friends at your holiday party. <\/p>\n

Full disclosure: I\u2019ve never had a Shirley Temple. Call me sheltered. Call me unworldly. Call me Shirley. Or call me someone who has never purchased a bottle of grenadine. But I\u2019ve never had an opportunity to try one. For those unfamiliar with the old-timey, non-alcoholic mixed drink, it combines lemon-lime soda or ginger ale with a splash of grenadine (a sweet syrup made from pomegranates) and is topped with a maraschino cherry. Yup, that sounds old-timey. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

While my lips have never sipped on an actual Shirley Temple, I\u2019ve consumed a few cans of 7UP\u2019s attempts to honor the beverage named after someone some folks will have to Google, and it has put me in a festive mood. Shirley Temple 7UP is delicious. If I were to offer this to a Grinch, drinking it would make them smile.<\/p>\n

But here\u2019s the thing I find odd about this drink. Its flavor reminds me of an Orange Julius. If I think harder than I should when drinking a soda, I notice the cherry. But for the most part, I taste a mildly tart orange citrus flavor. Maybe my taste buds are broken? However, I\u2019m not sure about that because they successfully determined this year\u2019s Mountain Dew VooDEW Mystery Flavor<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But with that said, this Shirley Temple 7UP is a wonderful tasting soda and the most satisfying 7UP limited edition flavor I\u2019ve had in a long time. It\u2019s miles better than Pomegranate 7UP, which has attempted to be a holiday thing twice. <\/p>\n

Does this have to leave? Can it stay around? Or at least, bring it back every holiday season, Keurig Dr Pepper. I\u2019ll narc on more gassy folks in elevators if that happens.<\/p>\n
