You had me at vodka and cherries ;) I must try this.
Down and dirty! A great way to say goodbye to summer and hello to Fall. Cheers!
I LOVE cherry flavoured drinks :) Thanks for sharing :)
I've never heard of Dirty Shirley -- too fun. Sounds good and looks pretty.
Oh, a Dirty Shirley- HOW FUN! I've never heard of one before now, but you can bet I'll be trying it next time I made a batch of Shirley Temples for the kids. I'm betting Cherry Vodka would be awesome in there, too. YUM.
I loved Shirley Temples! Never thought to make Shirley Dirty, LOL. What a great cocktail!
So glad to learn that the "dirty" part was vodka. I had an initial, horrible thought that it involved olive juice.
Thanks for visiting Rose City Reader and leaving a comment so I could find my way to your terrific blog.
Your cocktail looks so tasty! I only have the "dirty" part i.e. vodka at home. I so need to stock some grenadine and Sprite/7-Up! :D
Love the color! Just beautiful.
have actually had one of these before, and I agree—very yummy!
What an amusing name. It looks refreshing and fun.
Sounds good. I like my drinks fruity.
This looks delicious and yet simple. I definitely need to make this!
