Servings 1 cocktail
Calories 84kcal
Ingredients
- 2 ounces tequila blanco
- 4 ounces orange juice
- ¼ ounce grenadine syrup
- 1 orange slice optional garnish
- 1 maraschino cherry optional garnish
Instructions
- Begin by pouring the grenadine syrup into the bottom of your glass.
- Next, add ice to the glass.
- In a cocktail shaker with ice combine the orange juice and tequila and shake for 10-15 seconds.
- Pour over ice.
- Garnish with maraschino cherries and an orange slice.
- Serve this drink unmixed or with just a few quick stirs just before serving for maximum sunrise. Enjoy!
Notes
- If you’ve never made your own grenadine syrup, it’s easy and fun to make.
- Fresh squeezed orange juice is always best. You can use an electric juicer or a hand juicer, which is what I normally prefer.
- This drink is traditionally served in a highball glass. I used a hurricane glass here and I love how that presents as well.
