How do you make a true tequila sunrise?

Question

My Dad used to make a tequila sunrise where the grenadine would form into a ball at the bottom and then rise up to the top of the glass, making what I would believe to be a "true" tequila sunrise. Anybody know exactly how this is done? what is the order of ingredient placement and what size glass is needed?

Answer 1

2 msr tequila
orange juice
2 dashes grenadine syrup

Pour tequila in a highball glass with ice, and top with orange juice. Stir. Add grenadine by tilting glass and pouring grenadine down side by flipping the bottle vertically very quickly. The grenadine should go straight to the bottom and then rise up slowly through the drink. Garnish stirrer, straw and cherry-orange.

I am not giving you the site I got this off of because it flooded me with popups even through 2 popup blockers *LOL* but I have seen it done this way many times before- I used to be a cocktail/dining room waitress
