Ingredients

Instructions

  • Fill your glass with ice.
  • Pour mezcal, Cointreau, and juice directly into the glass. Stir gently.
  • Slowly pour the grenadine down the side of the glass or over the back of a spoon it should settle at the bottom.
  • Garnish with an orange wedge and serve without stirring to maintain the layered look.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • Use fresh-squeezed juice for better balance and a cleaner finish.
  • Want a less smoky version? Swap half the mezcal for tequila.
  • Chill the grenadine slightly to help it settle more cleanly for that sunset effect.
