I haven't made this yet but I'm going to a party at my sis's later and I'm going to bring this as my byob - I'll add a pic later! Thought I'd share now so I don't forget (after I've had a couple of these LOL).
To make a Dirty Shirley, pour 1 ½ oz vodka (or your spirit of choice), ¾ oz grenadine, and 4 to 6 oz soda or ginger ale in an ice-filled glass. Stir and top with a cherry (or two).
According to Juli Hale, senior culinary specialist in the Better Homes & Gardens Test Kitchen, the traditional Shirley Temple recipe includes lemon-lime soda or ginger ale, grenadine, and a maraschino cherry. The Dirty Shirley just adds a shot of booze. Often it's vodka, but you can opt for tequila, rum, or gin. "Choose your white spirit," Hale advises. Another plus to adding alcohol (on top of the obvious): It helps tone down the excessive sweetness.
