White tequila

Mexican Sunset recipe

Invented by H.B. Stone in California on Cinco de Mayo. Important to serve with a straw so that the Kahlua and grenadine (both very sweet) aren't left for last.

options
1 1/2 100% agave white tequila
1 1/2 orange juice
3/4 Kahlua® coffee liqueur
1 grenadine syrup

Pour Kahlua coffee liqueur into a thoroughly chilled cocktail glass. Shake tequila and orange juice well with cracked ice and strain carefully into the glass, layering it atop the Kahlua. Pour a tiny dash of grenadine into the glass; it will sink and mix with the Kahlua. Serve with a short straw.
