Cocktail
- 2 oz tequila
- 4 oz orange juice
- ½ oz grenadine
Garnishes
- Orange slices
- Maraschino Cherries with stems
Fill a highball glass with ice cubes. Pour tequila and orange juice into glass.
Stir to combine.
Slowly pour in grenadine around the outside edge of the glass for presentation. Eventually it will sink and gradually rise to mix in with the other ingredients.
Garnish with an orange slice and cherry with stem. Serve immediately.
Can you make a big batch?
In order to give the drink the layered look, you can’t really mix a big batch. It’s better to pour each drink separately.
Should you use fresh squeezed orange juice?
For the freshest, best flavor it’s worth using fresh-squeezed orange juice but not a requirement! For an easy drink, use prepared low-pulp orange juice.
