Picture this: a lazy weekend brunch, the sun casting a soft glow through the window, and a glass of vibrant Tequila Sunrise in hand. This recipe isn’t just a drink; it’s a moment—a celebration of simplicity and joy. Perfect for anyone looking to impress guests or just treat themselves to a refreshing cocktail, this drink is surprisingly easy to master. I remember the first time I made it for a poolside party; it was a hit, and since then, it’s been my go-to recipe for any gathering, big or small. So, whether you’re a cocktail enthusiast or a beginner, this recipe is for you.
- 2 oz tequila,
- 4 oz orange juice,
- 1/2 oz grenadine syrup,
- Ice cubes,
- Orange slice for garnish,
- Maraschino cherry for garnish,
Fill a highball glass with ice cubes to the brim.
Pour 2 oz of tequila over the ice and follow with 4 oz of orange juice. Gently stir to combine.
Slowly pour the grenadine syrup into the glass over the back of a spoon or by drizzling it down the side of the glass, allowing it to settle at the bottom. The grenadine will slowly rise to mix with the other ingredients, creating the iconic sunrise effect.
Garnish with an orange slice and a maraschino cherry. Cheers to a beautiful morning or a relaxing evening!
