Make this fun Dirty Shirley cocktail for happy hour tonight! Just like the classic drink we all ordered as kids, but with a splash of vodka!

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces vodka (can also use vanilla or cherry vodka for a twist!)
  • 1 ounce grenadine
  • Sprite, 7UP or Ginger Ale for topping
  • 34 maraschino cherries for garnish

Instructions

  1. Add grenadine to a high ball glass with ice, then pour in the vodka.
  2. Top with your soda of choice and then garnish with cherries. If you like a drink that’s less sweet you can use plain or cherry flavored seltzer.

Recipe Notes

You can also use diet soda to lessen the sugar content of the drink!
