How to Make ACAPULCO SUNRISE (SALLYE)

Step-by-Step

Note: Fresh squeezed orange is best, but if you don't have that available, use Minute Maid no pulp pure orange juice (not frozen).
Fill margarita or 8 ounce wine glass with crushed ice.
Pour tequila and orange juice over ice; then gently stir to blend
Very slowly and carefully dribble the grenadine on top of the mixture ****

DO NOT STIR!!
As the heavier grenadine begins to settle to the bottom, it will create streaks that simulate an Acapulco sunrise.
