Shirley Temple

About

The Shirley Temple is a beloved non-alcoholic drink named after the famous child actress Shirley Temple. It is traditionally made with ginger ale and a splash of grenadine, garnished with a maraschino cherry. This sweet and fruity concoction has been a favorite among both children and adults for generations. Its popularity stems from its simplicity and the nostalgic appeal it holds for many. Modern variations of the Shirley Temple may substitute ginger ale with lemon-lime soda or add other ingredients like orange juice. The drink's origins are somewhat disputed, with claims it was created at either Chasen's or the Brown Derby Restaurant in Hollywood during the 1930s. Despite Shirley Temple herself not being a fan of the drink, it remains a staple in many restaurants and bars, often served as a fun alternative to alcoholic cocktails.
