Somehow this drink got dubbed "Mommy's special drink." So it went like this (and still does), when Mommy got wine, the kids got THIS Shirley Temple drink! Little did I know that it was to become a bit of a legend. Holidays are a big deal and special drinks go hand in hand with holidays and special meals, right? And birthdays and Friday night movie night and Wednesday. I know what that sounds like, but seriously, we're just really into celebrating stuff around here. It is made in exactly the same way as the Dirty Shirley without the vodka.My kids knew how to clink glasses before they could pour their own drinks and I believe that "cheers" was one of my daughter's first words. Legend has it that it was invented because Shirley was complaining about not having something fancy to drink while her parents sipped on Old Fashioned cocktails. It is named after the famous child actress who died in 2014. The mocktail version of the Dirty Shirley is the classic Shirley Temple cocktail.
