Talk:Shirley Temple (drink)

message: This article claims that the Temple cocktail was invented "by a bartender at Chasen's restaurant in Beverly Hills, CA."  Shirley Temple claims the cocktail was invented "at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel in Waikiki, Hawaii, where she often stayed."  Which one is it? 64.40.61.191 03:10, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I certainly can't imagine her being a regular at a Canadian gay bar, as the article says now. Kaesa 03:04, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

message: If this refreshment is non-alcoholic as this article claims it to be, how did I get crunk of consuming one glass of it? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 74.208.9.221 (talk • contribs).
Well, since colored boys and wiggers are the only people who use the ghetto term "crunk", the answer is, probably you were high on weed or "malt likka" before you drank your ST.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.48.0.67 (talk) 23:55, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Question 

message: Since there is a variations section to the article, the main description should stick to the classic description of the drink.
I'll remove all variation from the main, and add them to variation.
Also the variations should not include the description of the original.. The original is, by definition, not a variation.

thread_title:  Variations 

message: I have never heard this drink referred to as a Shirley Temple cocktail, only as a Shirley Temple.  I know this needs to be a distinct article from Shirley Temple the actress, but I think the best page name for this article would be "Shirley Temple (cocktail)", since the word cocktail is only for disambiguation, and is not part of the drink's actual name.  However, I am no expert, so perhaps someone who knows more about the drink could confirm that this assertion is correct before we move the page.  leevclarke (talk) 16:33, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Good point, although I suppose it could be argued that a Shirley Temple can qualify as a "cocktail", as some types of grenadine do contain a negligible amount of alcohol. I'm going to move it to "Shirley Temple (drink)" and see if anyone objects. Joefromrandb (talk) 22:05, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

text: I actually went with "Shirley Temple (beverage)", which I think is better yet. I also managed to fuck things up with an unintentional misspelling; note that in the move-history, the summary "you're an idiot" is directed at Joe from R&B. Joefromrandb (talk) 22:18, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Page name

message: Regardless of whether chasen's or royal hawaiian invented this drink they both are specific in its ingredients being 2-1 ginger ale and orange juice with grenadine and marascino cherry garnish. The lemon lime soda variation isn't really a shirley temple at all. It's sometimes referred to as a kiddie cocktail which also omits the orange juice. I've changed the article to reflect this. How this debate went on this long when both contended creators have cited identical recipes is beyond me.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tybodger (talk • contribs) 01:17, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

message: Is anyone else confused as to why the article refers to it as a non-alcoholic drink? Most restaurants I’ve been to serve it as an alcoholic drink and you have to specifically ask for it to be virgin. 2600:8805:3E1E:4C00:F1D2:BB7A:25BD:572C (talk) 16:39, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
