The original mocktail
The original mocktail. Ginger ale sweetened with grenadine, finished with a cherry. Named after the child actress in 1930s Hollywood — a Beverly Hills bartender wanted her to have something fancy to order while her parents had proper cocktails.

- 1/2 oz Grenadine
- 1/4 oz Fresh Lime Juice
Method
Fill a highball with ice. Pour ginger ale to three-quarters full. Add grenadine. Drop in a maraschino cherry. A squeeze of lime is traditional but optional.
