Ingredients

How to make it

  1. Fill a highball glass with ice.
  2. Add the grenadine and orange juice.
  3. Top with ginger ale and stir gently.
  4. Garnish with a maraschino cherry and an orange slice.

Tip: Stir with plenty of cold, hard ice for 20 to 30 seconds. You want it chilled and silky, not cloudy.

About the Shirley Temple

Named after the child star, who was served it in the 1930s so she could have a fancy drink while her parents had cocktails. Temple herself later admitted she found it too sweet.
