A childhood favorite drink is finally getting its moment. 7Up just announced they're releasing a Shirley Temple flavor.
"Where was this when I was 10 years old?" one fan wrote on X, echoing everyone's thoughts.
@7up Sure, it’s only for a limited time, but that’s a million times better than not available anywhere ever.

So, where can you grab this nostalgic treat? It’s set to hit shelves at Target and Walmart for sure. Expect it to pop up at other retailers nationwide, too, but only for a limited time.
Fans are already excited, but there's a catch. 7Up Shirley Temple is expected to be gone by the time 2025 rolls around, so soda lovers should mark Oct. 15 on their calendars.
The flavor is a twist on the classic. 7Up’s take is pomegranate-cherry, slightly different from the original Shirley Temple, which was made with lemon-lime soda, grenadine, and a cherry.
Some fans are a bit puzzled by the change, but there’s a reason. Grenadine is made from pomegranate, so this version is a healthier, modern spin on the 1930s classic.
It's a refreshing nod to nostalgia with a little twist.
