Tequila sunrise

Orange at the top, red at the base, and a gradient in between that you can absolutely get right every single time.

Tequila sunrise

The sunrise is physics, not luck — grenadine is heavier than juice, so it will always sink if you let it.

Method

  1. 01

    Fill a tall glass to the brim with ice — a full glass is essential for a clean gradient.

  2. 02

    Add the tequila and top with orange juice, stirring gently to combine.

  3. 03

    Let the drink settle for a few seconds.

  4. 04

    Pour the grenadine slowly down the inside of the glass, or over the back of a bar spoon held near the bottom, and do not stir.

Keep cooking
