Maraschino cherries aren’t vegan though… They use cochineal to get that bright red color, cochineal comes from insects.

Looks lovely!
I don’t know why literally every comment is negative, but I appreciate your post. Thanks for the recipe!
Looks so beautiful! Thank you for giving info on the cherries, I had no idea they were made w insect dye!
Such a pretty drink. In parts of Canada, it’s common to add a splash of orange juice. Personally, I love it with a bit of mango juice.
I have not had a Shirley Temple in years and now I cannot stop thinking about one!
Thank you! I saved this to try later. I used to love Shirley Temples and haven’t had one in ages!
I assumed a Shirley Temple recipe was already vegan and alcohol free
These are so cute! I want one!
1 what isn’t vegan about a Shirley Temple?
2 Shirley Temples don’t have alcohol so it’s not a mocktail
Hey there, I see you have had a history of getting negative comments when posting. Based on this post and the time you’re getting a lot of people in the USA probably. I can’t speak to prior posts, but in our culture this is an extremely common drink, usually for children, and often a “fancy” kids drink when going out to dinner (more fancy than a plain soda).
Here it’s usually made at restaurants with just sprite/other lemon lime soda and grenadine. I’m just trying to help explain so you might understand the negative comments. To us, giving a Shirley Temple recipe is like saying “hey I made a recipe for cherry Pepsi, it’s cherry and Pepsi!”. If you look at it from that perspective, it *seems* to our culture like a low effort recipe. Outside of making sure the specific ingredients you get are vegan, the drink itself is already vegan, so further labeling it as such and posting in a vegan recipe sub seems strange.
Mocktails usually have more complex flavors and premium ingredients than just a soda and more sweeteners/syrups, so like it would be silly for us to call a cherry Pepsi a mocktail we would see this recipe similarly.
I will admit when I first saw this post in my feed my eyebrow went up in confusion as it could easily be seen as karma farming. While people in other cultures might not have heard of it, to us it’s something you don’t really need a recipe for.
I just wanted to provide an explanation to increase understanding. Hope you’re successful with your ambition to create and share recipes. Have a good day!

Goddamnit Donut.
Looks refreshing. I love mocktails as I don’t drink. Thank you for sharing! 🍒
This reminds me of an industrial gasses company advertising their CO2 as organic. Lol, well it is an organic gas so I sure hope its organic!
My fav drink! Thanks for the simple recipe
