Being a teetotaler has never been tastier.

You Will Need

  • An 8-ounce beverage glass
  • Ice
  • 6 oz. cola
  • 2 to 3 tsp. grenadine syrup
  • Maraschino cherries and lemon wedges
  • A stirrer
  • A straw

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Fill glass with ice

    Fill the glass with either crushed or cubes of ice, depending on your preference.

  2. Step 2

    Pour the cola

    Next, pour about the cola into the glass, leaving some room at the top.

  3. Step 3

    Add grenadine and stir

    Add the grenadine, stirring well to disperse the syrup evenly.

  4. Don’t stir vigorously, which makes the cola foamy and increases the amount of dissolved ice. Instead, stir slowly and smoothly.

  5. Step 4

    Add garnish

    Garnish with one or two maraschino cherries; add a lemon wedge for extra flavor.

  6. Step 5

    Serve

    Serve with a straw. Consider setting a one-refill limit; kids are sure to find these drinks addictive!

  7. Roy Rogers, one of the most famous cowboys of all time, is remembered each year at the Portsmouth, Ohio, Roy Rogers Festival.
