You literally are retarded aren't you?
Nobody asks for the cocktail a "7 and Sprite". It's a 7&7. 7up is the original. Sprite is the derivative mockery so Coke can have a share of a product they didn't have. Sprite was literally a flavor of Fanta before coming to the states. 7up dates back to the 20s-30s and is not only a better tasting soda pop, it is a superior cocktail ingredient.
