New York, NY (October 21, 2025) – Just Call Me Shirley today announces the launch of its Vodka and Tequila SKUs for online purchase in 45 states. The female-founded, ready-to-drink cocktail brand reinventing the classic Shirley Temple with premium spirits is also available in select retailers across California, Missouri, Illinois, and Iowa, with additional markets planned for 2026. The non-alcoholic version with electrolytes remains available online, in stores and for wholesale on Airgoods.

Each can is low-calorie, low-sugar, caffeine-free, gluten-free, and crafted without artificial dyes—delivering the nostalgic retro red hue and natural cherry lemon-lime flavor, without the sugar overload or Red 40.

Founded by best friends Sydney Attis and Mikayla Garcia, Just Call Me Shirley is inspired by a love of "dirty Shirleys" and a lack of fun, elevated canned cocktails. Today, the brand has grown into a nationally recognized name, redefining a nostalgic classic.

This national rollout follows a year of momentum and recognition:

  • The UPS Store® Small Biz Challenge Winners – Selected from more than 6,700 applicants nationwide, Attis and Garcia secured the $25,000 grand prize and later spoke as panelists at the UPS Impact Summit alongside top entrepreneurs and UPS executives.
  • FOX & Friends – The founders appeared live on FOX & Friends to share their journey from sorority sisters to beverage industry founders, sparking distributor interest across the country.
  • Gold Medal from RTD Magazine Awards – The Vodka Shirley earned a Gold Medal from RTD Magazine, recognized as "best-in-class" by the publication's expert tasting panel.
  • Empowered by Meg Ryan – Recognized as industry innovators, Just Call Me Shirley was selected for Empowered by Meg Ryan, a commercial series celebrating standout small businesses.

"We created Just Call Me Shirley because we were always ordering 'dirty Shirleys' in college and realized there was a gap in the market for a fun, elevated canned cocktail," said co-founder Sydney Attis. "Being able to now ship our cocktails to 45 states is surreal. Now anyone can stock their bar cart with a little Shirley."

About Just Call Me Shirley

Just Call Me Shirley is a ready-to-drink canned cocktail reimagining the nostalgic Shirley Temple with a twist of premium spirits. Founded by best friends and powerhouse female entrepreneurs Sydney Attis and Mikayla Garcia, the Just Call Me Shirley lineup features premium vodka and tequila options at 5% ABV, plus a non-alcoholic version infused with electrolytes. Each can is low-calorie, low-sugar, caffeine-free, gluten-free and crafted without artificial dyes. Expect the nostalgic retro red hue and natural cherry lemon-lime flavor, minus the sugar overload and Red 40. Entirely self-funded until recently raising over $115K through crowdfunding, the duo is quickly making waves in a male-dominated space. In April of this year, they were named the 2025 winners of The UPS Store® Small Biz Challenge, selected from over 6,700 applicants nationwide and awarded a $25K grand prize and print feature in Inc Magazine. Just Call Me Shirley is currently available in select stores across California, Missouri, Illinois, and Iowa, with plans to expand to more states in 2026. The Vodka, Tequila and non-alcoholic versions are available for purchase online.
