Ingredients

  • one part tequila
    1 unit
  • three parts fresh orange juice
    1 unit
  • two dashes of grenadine

  • 1 unit

Method

1
Fill a highball glass with ice cubes, leaving room at the top for the liquid ingredients.
2
Pour one part tequila into the glass over the ice.
3
Top the glass with three parts fresh orange juice, stirring gently to combine the tequila and juice.
4
Slowly pour two dashes of grenadine down the side of the glass; it will sink to the bottom and create the signature sunrise effect.
5
Stir gently from the bottom to distribute the grenadine slightly without completely blending it, maintaining the gradient color effect.
6
Garnish the rim with a maraschino cherry speared on a cocktail pick and rest it across the top of the glass.
7
Serve immediately and enjoy the layered flavors.
