Despite having a non-alcoholic cocktail named in her honour, the actress and politician Shirley Temple actually hated the drink and its ingredients. Of it, she remarked: “The saccharine sweet, icky drink? … I had nothing to do with it. But, all over the world, I am served that. People think it’s funny. I hate them. Too sweet!” Twice married and a mother of three, Temple – who was best known for her roles in Bright Eyes, Curly Top and Heidi – was also United States Ambassador to Ghana and Czechoslovakia and had to endure fans pulling at her trademark hair as they didn’t believe it to be real.
