A Toast to Tradition: The Iconic Shirley Temple and the Birth of Dirty Shirley
Welcome to a tale of evolution, where a timeless classic meets a bold twist. At Dirty Shirley, we're all about celebrating the spirit of reinvention—literally. From the cherished Shirley Temple of your childhood to our own audacious creation, the Dirty Shirley, we've taken a sweet favorite and infused it with a little extra mischief.
Tracing the Roots: The Classic Shirley Temple
Picture this: Hollywood, 1930s. The lights, the stars, and among them, the young sensation Shirley Temple. In her honor, a unique drink was crafted—a non-alcoholic concoction that allowed a child to feel part of the glamorous world around her. Traditionally mixed with ginger ale, a splash of grenadine for that vibrant blush, and topped with a cherry, the Shirley Temple has been the go-to mocktail for generations, offering a sip of sparkle without the spirits.
Enter the Dirty Shirley: Tradition with a Twist
Fast forward to today, and let's talk about shaking things up. At Dirty Shirley, we took that beloved recipe and asked, "What if?" What if we added a splash of vodka? What if we turned a childhood favorite into the toast of adulthood? The result: The Dirty Shirley. It’s more than just a drink; it’s a statement. It's for those who love a bit of nostalgia, yet crave the thrill of something new.
As it surged in popularity recently, becoming the go-to choice for summer vibes and spirited gatherings, the Dirty Shirley redefined what a cocktail could be. It's simple, yet sophisticated; nostalgic, yet novel.
Why We Love What We Do
Both the original Shirley Temple and the Dirty Shirley are more than just drinks; they're experiences. The first sip of a Shirley Temple might take you back to your first family dinner out, while a Dirty Shirley is all about creating new memories in old style.

We’re here to make a splash, mix things up, and invite you to be part of this delightful journey from innocence to indulgence.
