This recipe was originally shared by RecipeBoy (Brooks) in May 2011 when he received RecipeBoy.com as a gift for his 10th birthday. Shirley Temples were one of his favorite drinks, and he wanted to show everyone how to make them. Here’s what he had to say about it:
“My parents don’t let me drink soda (sad face). They say it has too much sugar in it. The only exception is that sometimes I get to have a Shirley Temple on special occasions, like going out to dinner.”
Get ready to indulge in this delightful drink and create some wonderful memories with your loved ones. Cheers!
