If you can't find cherry juice in your market, substitute a few drops of grenadine." The cream soda pop bottled on the Mississippi Gulf Coast was a bright ruby red, writes Martha Hall Foose in her book, Screen Doors and Sweet Tea: Recipes and Tales from a Southern Cook (Clarkson Potter, 2008). This dazzling drink came in bottles that were faceted on the sides like cut gems, with blue and white painted script that glowed when the bottles were turned upside down and their contents gulped down in the sunshine. A shot of cherry juice adds the bright color to this rendition of that Mississippi summertime childhood favorite.
