Tequila Sunrise

This pretty drink with layers of orange juice and grenadine is delicious on a hot day. The fact that the ratio of juice to tequila is high makes it a good choice for a brunch cocktail.

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:
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.
