This is actually not that bad of a combination. I drink this all the time. It really fills you up though
“delicious blended food drink”!

I was a kid growing up in 80s Japan & they had this drink called “Calpis” and it was milk and orange soda. And yes, the Japanese pronounced it like “cow piss”. I hated it.
Calpis isn't carbonated tho, at least none of the Calpico branded stuff I've had. Milkis is very similar and is carbonated, so it would probably be closer to this. Personally I like both Calpico and Milkis, they are definitely not my favorite but they are good to have every once in a while, owing especially to their unique taste.
We also had a milk-orange jus drink in france in the 2000's. Absolutly disgusting. Danao, launched in 1998, nerver consumed by anyone, still available today!

First off, it really is tasty.
Second, given when this add is from, it is likely that the milk consumed by many who read this ad was close to or equivalent to the best "artisan farmer" organic milk you can find today, and the 7-Up was likely still using pure cane sugar rather than high-fructose corn syrup.
Not wholesome, but also not the toxic sludge it would be today.

It sounds awful. But I once took a half-empty can of diet Squirt and added it to a half glass of orange juice, and it was AMAZING. Very citrusy and actually very delicious. So - ya never know what might work.
Diet...Squirt
Yeah i don't know if they even make "Squirt" anymore but it was a citrusy soda that came in regular and diet flavors. Mind you I didn't buy the diet, someone else did and left a half a can in my fridge.
But if you get a chance to try it with orange juice, it's really good.

Pakistan clearly thinks it works: https://www.eater.com/2017/6/20/15793584/doodh-soda-doodh-7up-milk-pakistan
I had some friends from the middle east that loved any drink that had citrus flavoring, like 7-up or Sprite. It's a taste they prefer to cola and other kinds of soda.

It likes me
It's not that different from a New York Egg Cream, which is chocolate syrup and club soda mixed with milk

I kind of want to try this...
It sounds like the end result would be similar to a French soda, which is delicious. I don't love the flavor of 7up, so that wouldn't be my first choice, but dairy and soda aren't a new combination.
Pilk
I don't think it sounds terrible either. I'd try it with a Strawberry soda first.
and vanilla ice cream instead of milk. yum.
with a decidedly different appeal…
That does not inspire confidence
Try it - it's different!
🤢 "wHoLeSoMe" 🤢
Wouldn't this curdle? I can kind of see how it would be a distant cousin of a creamsicle or a root beer float, but I think it's going to get chunky. Maybe the "natural lemon flavor" is refined enough that it wont, I don't know. I don't have either ingredient on hand to try it for science.
Apparently it doesn't get chunky. It's pretty popular in Pakistan: https://www.eater.com/2017/6/20/15793584/doodh-soda-doodh-7up-milk-pakistan
It's salty fizzy yogurt, basically. Popular in Iran too, called dough/ayran.
It's not literally 7up mixed with milk, but Milkis is a fairly popular drink in Korea, and can regularly be found in vending machines—or at least could when I lived there in the mid '00s.

The name “7up” would trick the milk into thinking it’s has a +7 pH, preveting it from curdling
