7UP Fan-Favorite Flavor Returns for “Limited Time”

The hit Shirley Temple flavor is returning, and fans are already clearing space in their fridge.

I can go on forever about how things are different now than when I was a kid. However, one thing hasn’t changed: A child’s love for Shirley Temples. The non-alcoholic bar beverage, consisting of Sprite or 7UP, grenadine, and a maraschino cherry, sparks joy in little ones and nostalgia in everyone else. Last fall, 7Up, which regularly releases new and innovative flavors, dropped 7UP Shirley Temple, and fans went wild. Recently, an insider revealed that the popular pop is coming back for another round. Here is everything you need to know.
