The Tequila Sunrise soared to fame when Mick Jagger tried one at a party for the launch of The Rolling Stones’s 1972 tour – and it then became the band’s go-to drink. Sweet, fruity and easy to drink, it makes a great Summer cocktail.
Ingredients
- 200 ml orange juice
- 100 ml tequila
- 60 ml Grenadine
- Marashino cherry and orange wheel.
Method
-
Pour the grenadine into the base of a tall glass and set aside. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add the tequila and orange juice. Shake until the outside of the shaker feels cold.
-
Add a few ice cubes to the serving glass then carefully double strain the cocktail into it, trying not to disturb the grenadine layer too much.
- Add more ice if needed to fill the glass then garnish with a cherry on a stick and an orange wheel.
