Tequila Sunrise
Ingredients:
2 oz (60 ml) tequila
4 oz (120 ml) orange juice
1/2 oz (15 ml) grenadine
Ice
Orange slice and maraschino cherry for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
Fill a glass with ice.
Pour 2 oz of tequila over the ice.
Slowly pour 4 oz of orange juice into the glass.
Slowly pour 1/2 oz of grenadine into the glass. The grenadine will sink to the bottom and then slowly rise, creating a sunrise effect.
Garnish with an orange slice and/or a maraschino cherry if desired.
Serve without stirring to maintain the layered effect. CHEERS!
YUM!
Save the leftover oranges from your Tequila Sunrise to create this delicious sweet treat!
