Who remembers drinking Shirley Temple’s as children?  A bit of ginger ale and cherry juice!??  Well here is an “adult” version called MRS. Shirley Temple.  We also made a MOCK Mrs. Shirley Temple.  Let me know what you think!


Pat and I have had a lot of fun each week picking one of your beverage submissions to feature and sipping them live on Fashionably Late. Tonight's drink of the night will be a Mrs. Shirley Temple and our L8DY (Lady) of the week is Janet.  Thank you Janet for providing such a yummy recipe for us to share!


We are pairing this week’s cocktail/mocktail with a “snack chat” item: Squirrel Brand Town and Country Nut Mix


Enjoy!!
