“Cherry pop” can mean a cherry soda, but it also has a sexual meaning. An old joke is:
Q: Who made the first soft drink?
A: Adam—he made Eve’s cherry pop.
The joke was popular by at least 1943, during World War II.

Isn’t there a town named China in some Midwestern state? Anyway, just a couple weeks ago a co-worker from the Midwest asked for a “pop” and mostly got blank stares. Which reminds me of a joke from junior high: “Who was the first beverage maker? Adam - he made Eve’s cherry pop!”
