Shirley Temple Soda Pop president Chet Prater said: "It was extremely important that the vivid design and signature colours be reproduced crisply and cleanly.

"Crown’s team was friendly, accommodating and available throughout the process, making sure that the final design met our brand’s standard."

The new cans are expected to boost the drink’s durability and portability, which further make it consumable while outdoors or on-the-go.

In addition, the new cans are designed to protect the drink against light and oxygen, which would maintain the quality of beverage consistently.

Crown Beverage Packaging North America craft brand manager Brian Thiel said: "Working with the Shirley Temple Soda Pop Company was an opportunity to promote a fun, authentic brand that rekindles happy memories for modern consumers.

"Chet and his team recognised the opportunities associated with packaging their drink in beverage cans, both to create a 360-degree billboard for the brand and as a means to engage consumers at the point-of-sale."
