Nutrition Facts : Calories 192 g

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the tequila sunrise surprise will taste. This is especially true for the orange juice and lime juice.
  • Chill the ingredients: Chilling the ingredients will help to create a more refreshing drink. You can chill the tequila, orange juice, and lime juice in advance.
  • Use a good quality tequila: The tequila is the star of the show in this drink, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a tequila that is 100% agave and has a smooth, mellow flavor.
  • Don't over-mix the drink: Over-mixing the drink will make it watery and dilute the flavors. Stir the drink gently until the ingredients are combined.
  • Garnish the drink with a lime wedge: A lime wedge is the perfect garnish for a tequila sunrise surprise. It adds a pop of color and flavor to the drink.

Conclusion:

The tequila sunrise surprise is a delicious and refreshing cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you're looking for a fun and festive drink, give the tequila sunrise surprise a try!
