A Modern Tequila Sunrise Recipe!
June 25, 2020On one of our last trips to Arizona, I made a fantastic discovery. Remember that tequila, grenadine and orange juice cocktail you’d order at the bar when you were a newly minted 21er? Remember how good it tasted? Now, have you ever revisited that cocktail as an adult? Let me just tell you first handedly, yuck! Save yourself. Well, what I discovered is that that Tequila Sunrise is not even the original recipe! In fact, the Tequila Sunrise was the brain child of a bartender at the famous Arizona Biltmore who came up with it in the 1930’s at the request of a frequent guest- asking for a refreshing tequila drink. Say what?! Well, today I’m bringing us back to the original recipe, but with a modern flair added to round it out. Enjoy this Modern Tequila Sunrise recipe! Cheers friends!
