Tequilasunrisesurprise Recipes

Steps:

• Stir or shake together tequila and orange juice. Fill a chilled 12 ounce glass with ice cubes; pour in orange juice mixture. Slowly pour in the grenadine, and allow it to settle to the bottom of the glass (be patient). Garnish with a slice of orange, and a maraschino cherry.

Steps:

• Mix serve over ice. The cherries get that nice orange flavor. You can buy Maraschino juice at the store. It's in the liquor aisle. Well at least we can in Cali. But definately at the liquor store next to the grenadine. If not just use that juice from the cherries!

Steps:

• Pomegranate Grenadine: Into a small pot over low heat, add pomegranate juice, sugar, pomegranate molasses, cloves, and star anise. Use a peeler to shave three long strips of orange peel. Over the pot, bend the peels in half lengthwise to release the citrus oils onto the other ingredients; then add peels to the pot. Stir syrup occasionally just until sugar dissolves, about 2-3 minutes; do not allow the syrup to boil, as the peels will become bitter. After the sugar has dissolved, immediately remove from heat and set aside to cool. Makes about 2 cups. (Note: Pomegranate Grenadine will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. Ivy Mix recommends adding a shot of vodka to extend shelf life to 2 weeks.)
• Assemble: Into a highball glass, add tequila and top with ice cubes. Add orange juice and lime juice, and stir. Add Pomegranate Grenadine by slowly drizzling with one hand while rotating the glass with the other to create a "sunrise" effect. Garnish with a lime wedge and serve.

Steps:

• Fill a highball glass with 1 1/2 cups ice and set aside.
• Combine tequila and orange juice in a cocktail mixing glass. Add 1 cup ice, stir, and strain into the prepared highball glass. Slowly pour in grenadine and let settle.
• Stir before drinking.

Steps:

• Combine orange juice, simple syrup, and tequila. Pour 2/3 over ice in a glass. Mix grenadine with remaining mixture and slowly pour into glass. Garnish with a slice of lime.

Steps:

• In a large pitcher stir together well the tequila, the orange juice, and the grenadine. Divide the drink among 6 glasses filled with ice cubes. Garnish the drinks with the orange slices.
