__________________________
The Tequila Sunrise you see today is far from the original created in the late 30's. It originated from a cocktail containing creme de casis and lime juice. But today's version took a turn and now uses orange juice and grenadine.
This drink is very easy to make, and well... very easy to drink! A lot of places will simply layer the drink and have you stir it all together with a straw, but I like to shake the tequila and orange juice to get dilution and full mixing of the cocktail.
I also like to add the grenadine to the glass first so you have the darker red color on the bottom and to create the perfect sunrise gradient easily by stirring the bottom of the glass with your bar spoon. No more guessing! This technique gets it right every time!
---------------------------------------------
Tequila Sunrise Recipe:
⚈ 2oz (60ml) Tequila
⚈ 4oz (120ml) Orange Juice
⚈ .25oz (7.5ml) Grenadine
** Elevate this drink with homemade Grenadine **
Add Tequila and orange juice to shaker.
Add ice then shake for 8-10 Seconds
Add grenadine to your Collins Glass.
Add Ice to glass, and strain your drink into the glass.
⠀
us the back of your bar spoon to stir the bottom of the glass giving you a sunrise gradient effect on your cocktail!
Garnish with an orange wedge or wheel.
Cheers!!

Who like a Tequila Sunrise?! Who has tried this grenadine tip?!?! 👇👇

I tried floating for the first few goes and it had a tendency to sink anyways. Putting it on the bottom is definitely a good hack so long as you do agitate it just a bit with the barspoon. I found that by saving part of the pour for a float of pure OJ/Spirit mix I was able to get a really nice 3 tone effect.

Yea, being so viscous the grenadine should sink eventually, but wont give you a perfect gradient. That's why I like this technique , and having to make it about 30 times a day, it really does speed up the process! However, with homemade grenadine it may not sink as well as store bought ultra sugary grenadine, so pouring over the top can be hit or miss! I like the saving a little mix for the end too, definitely a method that can work as well!

@dusshan1

tried it and t works like a charm! i must scale the amount of grenadine for my glass as it has a bit less volume, or perhaps my grenadine simply wont completely dissolve on the bottom. it lefts this bottom line of syrup which does not look nice.
THANKS FOR PUTTING THE MEASURES IN ML!!

Usually, just stir, not shake orange juice and tequila, but that is good advice for grenadine!
@CocktailCards

Yea, I talked about that in the video. You typically want to shake citrus for full mixture, and also proper dilution. But this has become one of the "lazy bartender" drinks where they made it popular to not even do that. Either way, this drink is so simple you could really do either, and be totally fine. Which is why I said you don't have to shake if you really don't want too. But I want the best version of every drink on here! :)

I was going to make that exact drink with that exact same tequila, but am lagging behind. Now, I'll have to think of something different in my cocktail video. Grear looking thumbnail. How'd you do a slight blur on the background? People keep telling me my back bar is too busy.
@CocktailCards

Thanks Ray! This drink is so beautiful the thumbnail was actually pretty easy to take! lol Getting a blurred background is all about the lens on your camera, and how much light it lets in. Your lens has an f-stop number on it. The lower the f-stop the more blur you'll get "bookeh" Unfortunately, lens that let a lot of light in are pretty expensive!
Luv it
