Ingredients

  • 2 ounces Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey
  • 4 ounces Orange Juice
  • 1/2 ounce Grenadine:
  • Orange Slice for garnish
  • Maraschino Cherry for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the Glass:

  • Fill a highball glass with ice cubes to chill the glass.

Mix the Drink:

  • Pour the Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey over the ice.
  • Add the orange juice gently on top of the whiskey. The idea is to maintain distinct layers before adding the grenadine.

Add the Grenadine:

  • Slowly pour the grenadine into the drink. It should sink and then gradually rise to mix with the other ingredients, creating a “sunrise” effect—gradual shading from red at the bottom to orange above.

Garnish and Serve:

  • Garnish with a slice of orange and a maraschino cherry on the rim of the glass or dropped into the drink.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Tips:

  • Layering: To enhance the layered effect, pour the orange juice over the back of a spoon to distribute it more evenly and prevent it from mixing too quickly with the whiskey.
  • Adjusting Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter drink, you can increase the amount of grenadine slightly.
