Sunrise Mocktail (2 Ingredients!)
This easy virgin sunrise mocktail is the perfect sweet and tasty drink! Easy to make with only 2 ingredients, your guests will love this beautiful, eye-catching mocktail!
Ingredients
- 3 oz ice, (optional, if desired)
- 4 oz orange juice
- 1 oz grenadine syrup, (approximate, use as little or as much syrup as desired for look/taste)
- orange wedge, (optional garnish)
Instructions
- If using ice, add the ice to a cup.
- First, pour in the orange juice, filling the glass about 3/4 full.
- Next, pour in the grenadine. Option 1: For a more layered look, tip the glass and pour the syrup directly down the side of the glass. This will result in a more distinct red "layer" at the bottom. Option 2: Pour the grenadine all over the top of the orange juice and it will gradually sink to the bottom. This will result in a more "mixed" look of orange and red.
- Serve immediately with an orange wedge if desired.
