Dirty Shirley
which cocktails are national drink of countries?
MOREThere are a few drinks that could be considered national drinks as they are so closely associated with their country of origin. In Mexico it would have to be tequila preferably in the form of a margarita. In Brazil caipirinhas made with the country's national spirit cachaça are the go-to choose. In the United States it would have to be whiskey particularly bourbon whiskey which is produced in Kentucky. And in Canada it would be maple syrup which is used in many cocktails and also as a flavouring for beer.
However, some countries do recognise them as their national drink, Caipirinha is the national cocktail of Brazil, while Pisco Sour is the national drink of Peru.

Dirty Shirley Recipe
Pour the Vodka over ice cubes in a highball glass. Fill the glass the rest of the way with Sprite. Add grenadine, garnish with a cherry, and serve.
This is a simple cocktail, simple yet delicious and is more popularly known by its memorable name, Dirty Shirley. Shirley Temple had been an American legend with a career spanning from a popular child actor to chief of Protocol of the USA, and a non-alcoholic mixed drink by her name had been popular for ages now , the dirty Shirley is the spiked version of that drink. With Vodka doing the job of making it heady.
Vodka
Vodka is an European clear distilled alcoholic drink that has been one of the most popular drinks across the world .
You\'ll find it to be the most popular spirit in drink making because of it\'s neutral taste and absence of flavour and colour.
Vodka often replaces Gin in many traditional cocktails
Vodka is known to be good for the heart, and if consumed in moderation, can prove to be good for cardiovascular health
Note that these days there are flavoured Vodka available in the market too, and some cocktails do make use of them.Sprite Soda
Soda refers to carbonated water, sweetened, flavoured or plain, but there is a difference between Soda and plain Carbonated Water or Sparkling Water, which is known as Seltzer Water, while Seltzer Water is plain water carbonated to add fizz, Soda water contains potassium bicarbonate and potassium sulphate in the water, and according to research Seltzer Water is safer for teeth health and sparkling water provides true hydration and is better at it than regular soda or diet soda.
Grenadine Syrup
Grenadine is a common non-alcoholic pomegranate syrup with a characteristic deep red colour. It is a very popular cocktail ingredient, used for its pomegranate flavour and more for its ability to add a reddish to pink tint to a cocktail.
The name Grenadine originates from the French for pomegranate, which is grenade.
Grenadine is not subjected to regulations like alcoholic beverages are, and there are no region specific formulae any more, and thus manufacturers often replace pomegranate with blackcurrant juice and other fruit juices while retaining the same flavour profile.
Many producers now use artificial ingredients like high fructose corn syrup, water, citric acid, sodium citrate, sodium benzoate and food grade red colour along with natural and artificial flavours.
