Tequila Sunrise
Prep time:
Tequila with orange juice and a thread of grenadine that sinks and stains the glass from the bottom up. Easy to drink, and it goes in through the eyes first.
Ingredients
- 45 ml blanco tequila
- 90 ml freshly squeezed orange juice
- 15 ml grenadine
- Ice cubes
Preparation
- Fill the highball to the top with ice.
- Add the tequila and orange juice, and stir.
- Pour the grenadine slowly down the side of the glass. It sinks on its own: do not stir it.
- Serve with an orange slice.
