‘Shirley’ springtime

A Shirley Temple makes a perfect refresher
Ava Miller, Managing Editor • March 13, 2026

 

Basking in the warm glow of the sun with a bubbly mocktail in hand is the perfect way to welcome the blooming season of spring. The blissful taste of sweet cherries and the crisp, sugary fizz in a Shirley Temple is irreplaceable. This drink is a breath of fresh air after many cold months of hot chocolate!

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons of Geraldine syrup
  • ½ a cup of ice cubes 
  • 1-2 Maraschino cherries
  • 1 small can of Sprite

Recipe: 

  1. Add ½ a cup of ice cubes to a glass.
  2. Add 1 small can of sprite.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons of Geraldine syrup. Mix well. 
  4. For finishing touches, add 1-2 Maraschino cherries for a fun garnish!

About the Contributor

Ava Miller, Managing Editor
Hello! I’m Ava Miller, and I’m one of the Managing Editors for The Journal this year. Since starting out as an eager freshman in Journalism class to a Features Reporter my sophomore year, I’ve been given the wonderful opportunity to be on the leadership team this year as a junior. I’ve met some inspiring people, and I will always be eternally grateful for the exposure and countless opportunities that The Journal has presented to me. When I’m not revising a draft, I love reading and listening to Taylor Swift (reading rom-coms and listening to Taylor is the perfect combination). On most days, you can find me with a cup of coffee and a book in my hand. On that note, I highly recommend reading every piece that we produce, because it’s truly a glimpse beneath the surface.
