I bother my coworker every day to see if he has any snacks, and he’s usually pretty good about hooking me up with something—maybe a biscotti or some pork rinds.

This time?  He surprised me with the new 7Up Holiday Shirley Temple!

I felt bad taking it because he hadn't tried it yet, but I needed to know whether it was a hit or miss.  I did the dirty work, so you didn't have to!

Spoiler: I drank the entire can, so it couldn’t have been that bad, right?

7Up's New Holiday Soda—Is It Worth The Hype?

On the can, it says the flavors are pomegranate and cherry—two of my absolute favorites—so I was already excited to crack open my cold one.  I took my first sip and immediately got hit with a familiar taste: Fruity Pebbles.

Yes, the cereal, Fruity Pebbles.  It was an awesome experience.

If it's on your bucket list to drink Fruity Pebbles in liquid form, this is your chance. It’s fruity, sweet, and definitely hits that nostalgic spot.

Overall, I wish the taste was stronger... but I'd still give it a 8.3/10 rating.  It could've tasted more like cherry or pomegranate, but I'm not complaining about it tasting exactly like Fruity Pebbles.  It was delicious!

If you're a huge pomegranate, cherry, or Fruity Pebbles fan you’ll 100% love this new flavor. It has zero sugar and is perfect for the holiday season!  If you've already tried it, how did you like it?!
