Notes
We love fresh-squeezed juice for maximum flavor, but store-bought juice is perfect in a pinch! This mocktail recipe can be made in batches for a large gathering.
-
Use a Clear Glass: A tall highball or hurricane glass shows off the beautiful sunrise layers.
-
Pour Slowly: Drizzle grenadine down the inside of the glass so it sinks and creates the red-to-orange gradient.
-
Chill Ingredients: Keep juices and glasses cold for the most refreshing sip and sharper color contrast.
-
Fun Garnishes: Add an orange or lime slice, pineapple wedge, or a maraschino cherry for a festive look.
-
Batch-Friendly: Pre-mix the citrus and pineapple juices in a pitcher; let guests add grenadine individually to create their own layered effect.
- Kid Friendly – Make this Sunrise Drink kid-friendly with colorful straws and fun umbrellas. Kids LOVE to garnish their own drinks!
