Tequila Sunrise
This 1970s zesty citrus version of the Tequila Sunrise looks the part and comes with a sweet treat at the bottom of the glass

Sweet tequila and orange juice. Not a fan.

Not being a fan of tequila, I recently came across the concept of a limoncello sunrise, using limoncello instead of tequila. I surprised myself by liking it.

Edit: I'd be interested in whatever recipe you could suggest for it.

Had this with Cinco de Mayo Mexican lunch (more of an American day than one in Mexico). Only difference we made is once the cocktail was done to take a bar spoon and stir at the bottom slowly, This move the red into the bottom of the cocktail and created a more gradual effect of the sunset. It also lessened the sweetness at the bottom of the cocktail.

That's a must in my eyes. It really creates a beautiful gradient, like a Garibaldi cocktail.

Can i use triple sec instead of orange curacao?

You can. Better is a 40% alc./vol orange curacao.

I like the conception of smooth gradient from orange to grenadine. Very tasty, easy, beautiful.

Wondering where to find the original 1930’s recipe by Jean at the Arizona Baltimore Hotel that @thelucasassis mentions in his Instagram. Just don’t want to duplicate the recipe if it’s already out there.

I've added a link to the Original Tequila Sunrise above. It's a better drink.

Excellent on a grim December evening. Classic for a reason. One large orange and one lime conveniently delivered just the right amount of juice for two of these ?

You write: "SHAKE other ingredients and carefully strain..." as they are to be shaken without ice. Is that correct?

Shake with ice. I've amended above. Thanks for bringing the omission of ice to my attention.
