 The Tequila Sunrise is a real visual drink, the mention coming from the consequence of the ruddy grenadine sitting on the bottom of the orangish drink, giving it the illusion of a sunrise.  It's a bang-up change-of-pace beach drinkable when you lot larn tired of the saltiness of your margarita or the heaviness of your pina colada.  Being that it's amount of orangish juice, it's too a bang-up beginning of vitamin C spell you lot sitting inwards the Sun (hey, gotta convey the positives!).
Watch the Video!



The work I've had amongst this drinkable inwards the by is that the classic recipe...orange juice, tequila, together with grenadine only...has left me amongst an aftertaste that tin best live on described every bit "children's aspirin" taste...the St. Joseph's effect.  It tastes good, but that aftertaste is a fleck annoying.  Even at the bang-up bars that point the beaches of Mexico, I nonetheless had that taste.  The recipe below is my adaption of the classic together with uses pineapple together with lime juice to eliminate that aftertaste.
TEQUILA SUNRISE (1 drink)

2 oz. - tequila
2-3 oz. - orangish juice
2-3 oz. - pineapple juice
spash of lime juice
splash of grenadine


 Take a highball drinking glass together with stimulate amount 2/3 amongst crushed ice.  Pour inwards the tequila.  Fill close halfway to the transcend amongst orangish juice.  Pour inwards a splash of lime juice or squeeze one-half a fresh lime into the glass.  Complete the stimulate amount of the drinking glass amongst the pineapple juice.  Stir the contents.  Pour a splash of grenadine along i side...note - create non pour over the transcend of the drink...the grenadine is denser than the liquid inwards the drinking glass together with volition presently sink to the bottom.  Do non stir the drink, you lot desire the grenadine on the bottom when you lot serve together with hence you lot larn the sunrise effect.  Once you lot firstly drinking it, it volition mix inwards but permit your guests to the mixing or you'll but halt upwards with a pinkish drink.


 Cheers!
