Ingredients

  • 2 oz tequila
  • 1 oz orange juice
  • 0.75 oz triple sec
  • 4 oz lager
  • 1 oz pomegranate juice
  • Sea salt and crushed chili flakes for rimming
  • Lime wedge for garnish

Instructions

  • Mix the sea salt and crushed chilis on a small plate. Rub a lime wedge around the rim of a hurricane glass to moisten, then dip into the salt mixture to coat. Set the glass aside.
  • In a cocktail shaker, combine tequila, orange juice, and triple sec with a handful of ice. Shake until well chilled.
  • Strain into the prepared hurricane glass filled with fresh ice.
  • Top with lager, then slowly pour in the pomegranate juice and let it settle for a layered effect.
  • Serve immediately with a lime wedge.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • Use a light lager for a crisp finish that doesn't overpower the citrus and pomegranate.
  • Pour the pomegranate juice slowly over the back of a spoon for a more defined sunrise effect.
  • Adjust the chili-to-salt ratio depending on your spice preference.
