Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Fresh blackberries
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 2 ounces Tequila
- 4 ounces Fresh orange juice
- 0.5 ounces Grenadine syrup
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 2 pieces Blackberries (for garnish)
- 1 piece Orange slice (for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, muddle the 6 blackberries and granulated sugar until the berries release their juices and form a thick syrup.
Fill a tall glass with the cup of ice cubes.
Pour the tequila and orange juice into the glass over the ice. Stir gently to mix.
Slowly strain the muddled blackberry mixture into the glass, allowing it to settle slightly in the liquid. Do not overmix to retain the gradient effect.
Carefully drizzle the grenadine syrup down the side of the glass. It will sink to the bottom and create a layered sunrise effect.
Garnish with 2 whole blackberries and an orange slice on the rim of the glass.
Serve immediately with a straw or cocktail spoon and enjoy!
