How to Get Your Hands on a Shirley Temple

Pew Wei is a branch of PF Changs offering basically the same food at a reduced price. A few times I've been there my food is have cold. The service is nothing special, and I dont know anyone who works there.

So why do I go back? Two words Coke Freestyle. Coca- Cola came up with the machine in 2009. The machine was designed by Pininfarnina; a fancy pants Italian car designing company that also design Ferrari's.

The machine offers over 100 flavors of Coca-Cola products. Which vary from Coca- Cola Classic to Peach Sprite.

The machine is more than just a great marketing strategy it also is an awesome tool for market research. Every day the machine sends the data of what has been sold back to Atlanta for the marketing people to look over at coke. So if there is a spike in cherry Mr.Pibb they can offer it on the shelfs of your local grocery store.


Here is the good part, the Shirley Temple AKA Kiddy cocktail is a combination of leamon lime soda and cherry flavoring. By going to Pei Wei, Meat Heads, 5 Guys or any other place that has Coke Freestyle you can enjoy a delicious Shirley Temple by simply selecting Sprite then cherry Sprite.
