A tequila sunrise is a cocktail made with tequila, orange juice, and grenadine. It is typically served in a highball glass with a garnish of lime or orange. The tequila sunrise is a popular and refreshing drink that is perfect for any occasion.
The tequila sunrise is said to have been created in the 1930s at the Arizona Biltmore Hotel in Phoenix, Arizona. The drink was originally called the “sunrise” and was made with tequila, orange juice, and lime juice. In the 1970s, the drink was renamed the “tequila sunrise” and grenadine was added to the recipe.
