Tequila Tuesday!

Hey there!

I just got home from a long day at my internship and what wore me out even more was when I realized it's only Tuesday! But preppies...

"Keep calm and have a cocktail"

It's 5 o'clock by me so it's officially happy hour! 

During the summer months I love fruity drinks. Usually my go to is a Malibu Bay Breeze but lately I've been on a tequila kick! I've been trying new recipes, experimenting with tequila. The other day my sister made me a Tequila Sunrise and it was delish! So, I thought I would share a Tequila Sunrise recipe with you!

Ingredients

• 1 (1.5 fluid ounce) jigger tequila
• 3/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
• ice cubes
• 1/2 (1.5 fluid ounce) jigger grenadine syrup
• 1 slice orange, for garnish
• 1 maraschino cherry for garnish

Directions

1. Stir or shake together tequila and orange juice. Fill a chilled 12 ounce glass with ice cubes; pour in orange juice mixture. Slowly pour in the grenadine, and allow it to settle to the bottom of the glass (be patient). Garnish with a slice of orange, and a maraschino cherry.

See, the coloration makes the drink look like a sunrise (hence the name)!

While you're sipping on your lovely Tequila Sunrise, enjoy a little Kenny live from Red Rock...

ahhh time to relax!

Preppily yours,
