Number Of Ingredients 4

crushed ice
1-1/2 oz cuervo gold tequila
4 oz orange juice
splash grenadine

Steps:

  • 1. Note: Fresh squeezed orange is best, but if you don't have that available, use Minute Maid no pulp pure orange juice (not frozen).

  • 3. Pour tequila and orange juice over ice; then gently stir to blend
  • 4. Very slowly and carefully dribble the grenadine on top of the mixture **** DO NOT STIR!!

  • Chill the coupe glasses before serving. This will help keep the drink cold and refreshing.
  • Add the grenadine slowly to create the sunrise effect. You can also use a spoon to drizzle the grenadine into the glass.
