To Kill a Mockingbird- Tequila Sunrise

If you\’re looking for a new drink to add to your repertoire, look no further than the tequila sunrise. This classic cocktail is easy to make and always a hit with guests. Plus, it\’s named after one of my favorite books, To Kill a Mockingbird! Keep reading for the recipe and some tips on how to make it just right.

You can\’t go wrong with the Tequila sunrise. It\’s so simple and only has three ingredients, you\’ll need a cocktail shaker for this one! Shake everything up in until your glass starts feeling cold to touch; then pour into your favorite glass. The next step is to slowly pour the grenadine into your glass, allowing it time for settling at bottom before you finish off with an optional single ice cube. You can also garnish by floating an orange wedge and delicious high quality maraschino cherry on top!

Tip: Use your bar spoon to get the grenadine to the bottom of your glass. Watch our video blow to learn how.
