- Ginger ale. The most traditional way to make the best shirley temple is by using ginger ale as the main liquid. If you must, you can substitute a lemon-lime soda like 7up or sprite.
- Grenadine. is a syrup made from pomegranate juice, sugar and water. Use a variety that contains real ingredients like this one and this one. Or, it can be substituted with pomegranate juice or cherry syrup in a pinch.
- Lime juice. don't skip or omit! Orange juice is the best substitute.
- Maraschino Cherries. Again, choose a maraschino cherry that is made with natural ingredients and no food dye - like this one.
