Servings: 1
- 3 oz pineapple juice
- 1.5 oz silver tequila
- 0.5 oz Amaretto
- 0.5 oz Peach Schnapps
- 0.5 oz grenadine
- 1 lime slice for garnish
- 1 maraschino cherries for garnish
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add the Amaretto, Peach Schnapps, silver tequila, and pineapple juice.
Cover the shaker with the lid and shake vigorously until the mixture is well combined and the shaker feels cold to the touch.
Fill a tall glass with ice and pour the tequila cocktail mixture into the glass, leaving just enough room for the grenadine.
Slowly pour the grenadine down the side of the glass, allowing it to settle at the bottom and create a beautiful sunset effect.
Garnish the cocktail with a slice of lime and three maraschino cherries skewered on a cocktail toothpick.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Mexican Sunset!
Pro Tips
- For a more dramatic sunset effect, pour the grenadine slowly and carefully to ensure it sinks to the bottom.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less grenadine to suit your taste.
- Serve in a chilled glass to keep the cocktail cool and refreshing for longer.
- For an extra touch of flavor, consider rimming the glass with sugar before adding the cocktail mixture.
