What is the alchoholic verson of the Shirley Temple?

Question

My mom said it is a Tom Collins, but I know that is not true. Most non-alchoholic drinks have a very similar alchoholic drink (I think anyway).

Answer 1

Unlike many mixed drinks that are created for adults and modified for children, the Shirley Temple underwent a reverse process. People wanted to make the drink alcoholic, and tried by adding various alcohols to the drink. A Shirley Temple Black mixes 7-up, Kahlua and grenadine. A Dirty Shirley, also called a Shirley Vomit, is a combination of lemon-lime soda, vodka and grenadine.

Answer 2

Alcoholic variations on the recipe exist, which are often served in bars under the original "Shirley Temple" name, or called "Shirley Temple Black", "Dirty Shirley", "Robert Morri" and a "IZY Temple". A "Shirley Temple Black" consists of a "Shirley Temple" mixed with either gin or Johnny Walker Black; the name is a play on words involving the eponymous actress' married name.

In the south there is a drink, often served at college parties, composed of lemon-lime soft drink, grenadine, vodka, and garnished with a maraschino cherry, typically called a "Shirley Vomit," due to its similarity to a Shirley Temple and alcohol's tendency to cause one to "surely" vomit when ingested in large quantities.
