Experience a taste of tropical paradise with the Tequila Sunrise - a vibrant and refreshing cocktail that's sure to transport you to a beach getaway with its smooth tequila, tangy orange juice, and stunning sunrise hues. Cheers to sipping your way to sun-soaked bliss!
Fill a highball glass with ice cubes to create a refreshing base for your cocktail.
Gently pour 2 ounces of your chosen tequila over the ice, infusing the drink with its distinctive character.
Slowly add 4 ounces of freshly squeezed orange juice, allowing the natural sweetness to intertwine with the tequila's boldness.
To achieve the iconic sunrise effect, tilt a spoon upside down over the glass, just above the orange juice. Slowly pour the grenadine onto the spoon's back, letting it cascade down the inner side of the glass.
As the grenadine settles at the bottom, it will create a beautiful gradient of colours, reminiscent of a sunrise.
Give the cocktail a gentle stir to combine the flavours and admire the mesmerizing display.
Garnish your Tequila Sunrise with a slice of orange and a cherry, adding a touch of tropical elegance.
