The Origins of the Maraschino Drink
There are three different places that have been the alleged originators of the drink. Shirley wanted a drink because of this cute garnish, but of course she could not have an old-fashioned. The actual ingredients are kind of variable, though, depending on what recipe you look at or where you order it. There's usually grenadine, and then either a lemon lime soda or ginger ale on top. Some versions combine those sodas, also orange juice, maybe a little lime juice, but there's always that Maraschino cherry to garnish it.
