Cheerwine was born in Salisbury, North Carolina in 1917, the creation of a store owner by the name of L. D. Peeler. With a flavor of wild cherry, Cheerwine grew in popularity and is now a favorite among many. I know I enjoy an occasional glass because I like the taste of cherry. Come to find out, this beverage is even available in Iraq and China.
I must confess that I haven't paid Cheerwine much attention lately until I saw a billboard advertising it on Interstate 85. Apparently Cheerwine was born in the South and raised in glass and it's become a legend. The things you learn from billboards when you are driving along and need entertainment!
For all you diet soda drinkers, there is even a diet Cheerwine and for a two-Southern products rolled into one, Cheerwine has teamed up with Krispy Kreme Doughnuts to form a single-most tasty treat---Cheerwine Kreme Filled! Look at those sprinkles on top.

I love Cheerwine! I tried it for the first time right before I quit drinking soda, but it is really good :-)
I like it every so often, too. Like you, I seldom drink soda.
Lived minutes from Salisbury for over a decade, and yes, they are mighty proud of their Cheerwine. On a hot day, an icy cold one is a sugary slice of Heaven. If you ever get to the Carolinas, try one!
Good advice, Pam! Cheerwine has its merits.
