The Tequila Sunrise - which one is better?

[@AndersErickson]

DISCLAIMER: Typically I like to test and adjust the recipes I post to the channel, but for this comparison, I wanted to get as close to the original recipes as I could - including using store bought grenadine, which is something I never use. Stick around to the end to see my "doctored up" version of the 1930s/'40s sunrise - and join me over on Instagram as I tweak the 1970s version more to my liking. Cheers, everyone! 🍹 😊

[@drthmik]

Take inspiration from the 1970s version and use orange bitters?

[@brennanault4777]

I joined you on the gram

[@paulklemencic6132]

See my comment below on how to drink a layered drink like the Tequila Sunrise. Anders, you need a class on how to drink a cocktail... hint, real men (and women) don't drink a cocktail with a straw, unless its a whipped drink like a daiquiri.

Hey Anders, cheers for making all these superb videos. I wonder how come you don't have Sex on the Beach recipe yet? :-) keep doing the great work!

[@buzzardscry1383]

My dad from the 70s restaurant days, said there was a half orange with holes poked holes and the orange was the sun. I don't know how else to explain it. Can't ask him, hes gone now

[@marclemieux2207]

Always wanted a home bar, but was never motivated to to make one until Anders & Az showed up on my feed. Cheers guys! Great cocktail selection so far. The modified sunrise is best IMO, that dash of AB is beautiful 🌅

[@atrain84]

I’m so glad to have a huge counter and pantry in my kitchen so the home bar can become a big party. Next is getting a house with a basement and all it is is a big bar and lounge!

[@ignatiuszoo]

1970s Tequila Sunrise: You really do have to drink the whole thing to see why it's loved. The first sip (with a straw) is too sweet, lulling the tongue into putting down its defenses, until the final sips, now rich in tequila, go down more smoothly. Alternatively, without a straw, you get something simple and hard-hitting, gradually mitigated with grenadine. It's the change in character from start to end that defines this cocktail.

[@paulklemencic6132]

NO Kidding. No one drinks a Tequila Sunrise with a straw!! Any real bartender should know that a layered drink, like a Tequila Sunrise or a Pousse-Cafe, must be sipped, from the top down! The heavily sugared liquor settles to the bottom, so drinking with a straw is ignorant and idiotic. I lived in the Bay Area starting in 77, and frequented the Trident. Made properly, and sipped in the sun as the ice melts, the Tequila Sunrise is a decent drink, dominated by the tequila. It has a place. In fact, skip the grenadine, and use straight up concentrated pomegranate juice, and it is really good. Just adjust the pomegranate juice to taste, and use fresh squeezed OJ. I have been a fan of this channel, but this is the first time you really missed a drink. Remember the early 70s was still rock and roll, and the daiquiri craze in The City didn't start until the late 70s... remember the fern bars, and Henry Africa one block off Lombard and Van Ness. The owner ran three fern bars on the same city block.

[@jimb-dallas4349]

70’s Tequila Sunrise - I was very surprised to see you taste a Sunrise with a straw on the bottom. You would only get straight Grenadine. A Tequila Sunrise is sipped over the rim, toss the straw. And as observed above the drink gradually changes as you drink it. The first sip and the final are VERY different things. Love your videos, but tryi it correctly before you declare it a loser. And I am going to have to shop for the 30’s ingredients and try the original, thanks for the intro to something new.

[@adde9506]

I think no matter whether you like it or not, the 70s version is the definitive owner of the name. Call the original the Tequila Li-lo. Aside from the sipping instructions above, in the 70s this would have been made with "bar orange juice" not sweet freshly squeezed oj. I could explain bar orange juice long-form, but siffice to say it would be alin to using white grapefruit juice vs ruby red.

[@phillefever1934]

It’s probably better once the insulin kicks in… I do like the flavor of Tequila and OJ but the OJ should be cut about 50/50 with soda water

[@eeedee1298]

I too have a problem with the sweetness of the 70"s version, so i use grapefruit juice instead. Works great and super simple!

[@saint2241]

That is more like a sea breeze, also a great drink

[@eflores8289]

Just add more tequila

[@azusainaba258]

[@cas9065]

Great to see you get more involved. You are a great team.

[@AndersErickson]

🥃 🎥

[@marctestarossa]

on the modern tequila sunrise you even can amplify the 'sunrise' effect: fill the glass with orange juice, put in the grenadine (home made of course), let it sink to the bottom and then float the tequila on top, so you have a colour change from red to dark orange to light orange to very light yellow on top. But you absolutely have to stir it before drinking, it's for presentation only.

[@AndersErickson]

I like the idea of a float of tequila on top for presentation 👍

[@CoachVinoLLC]

I agree, Orange Juice is easily my least favorite juice for cocktails. It's really hard to balance without some sort of chemical modifier. Great comparison Anders!

[@AndersErickson]

Thanks, Vino! Yeah a chemical modifier would make all the difference. I think my preferred way to drink orange juice is just on its own 😂

[@SaroShow]

@@AndersErickson orange juice is good for Bronx cocktail I like mixed to other juice like cranberry or pineapple.

[@LuizGuilherme5]

I like screwdriver! Just ice and vodka

[@Googahgee]

I usually prefer pineapple juice in a tequila sunrise! If I want that orange flavor I add some orange liqueur

[@vinspad3]

Ahhh! This is the first time I've seen Az make the drink! Glad to see you're both enjoying yourselves! I'll have to give the Ango Sunrise a try!

[@riccardobua2331]

I would add a dash of bitter, just to keep playing with the sour taste

[@Barprints]

Ok, never knew there was another Tequila Sunrise other than the one with OJ and grenadine. Great video Anders!

Thank you so much! It was a fun comparison - happy to have tried the original version. Cheers!

You know, I've always been curious about how to "properly" make cocktails, but no one else does it like you. I love that you explain more than just 'this is the recipe' like most and never fail to make me laugh. Thank you!

[@pappamack6113]

I always considered the Tequila Sunrise a layered drink, first ice, then pour the heavier specific gravity beverages in, Creme de cassis, grenadine, orange juice, then tequila. It's beautiful because it looks like a sunrise. The drink mixes as you drink it, especially if you stir it occasionally with your straw. I garnish with an orange slice, maybe with a cherry on the bottom for effect.

[@AM-hf9kk]

"What does it need?" LOL I've been watching for a few days and knew immediately that the answer was Angostura.

[@marctestarossa]

recommendation for everybody: make your own grenadine syrup, this will change the way you look at this ingredient

[@AndersErickson]

Homemade makes all the difference - cheers!

[@marctestarossa]

@@AndersErickson Homemade = Love so you're absolutely right

[@trzynasty909]

It is definitely the way to go for any grenadine cocktail, but the issue with TSunrise really isn't using store grenadine. The drink is just one of the most disappointing things one can mix in my experience.

[@marctestarossa]

@@trzynasty909 The Tequila Sunrise disappointed me all my life. Then I made one with fresh orange juice, Sangre de Vida Blanco Tequila (expensive, but it was a gift of my brother) and my homemade grenadine. And it was amazing.

[@amartinez97]

@@marctestarossa $40 is pretty average for decent tequilla, you can buy 3 of those for the price of 1942 don Julio.

[@sztuka_mieszania]

If Orange juice is to sweet I just add 10 ml of lime. In my country(Poland) oranges are from abroad so often more sour than sweet. In that case with just splash of hm grenadine this drink is all right. But still one or two is enough :) cheers , I love your style Anders! 😎

[@AndersErickson]

😂 Thanks, Mark! The Rolling Stones graphic was my favorite part too!

[@KSICZEK2]

The original tequila sunrise is a great template to mix with. I agree with the adjustments you made, even without tasting it myself I think it's just way more balanced. I often make a fizzy drink on a similar template: 2 parts gin, 1 part creme de cassis, 1 part lemon, shake and top with good quality tonic water. Great for the summer. :) Amazing video and I love when you guys do tasting together! 🔥

[@AndersErickson]

Thank you so much! That gin cocktail sounds perfect for the warmer weather - I'll be sure to give it a try. Thanks for sharing! Cheers!

[@The1DUIGuy]

Not an “insta” guy, but I wanted to toast your “improved” 30’s version. Made it last weekend when our best friends were in town. It was a hit. Haven’t made my own grenadine yet, but did get some good stuff (Libor & Co.). What a world of difference…. Cheers!

[@merryme931]

I wonder if the 70's tequila sunrise used boxed orange juice rather than fresh? I know nothing about the bar the rolling stones were in, but in my mind I think of gritty bars across the US who only had access to minute maid boxed orange juice. That particular brand is much more bitter than fresh orange juice and would probably make a more balance drink.

[@nathanhowe3553]

Tried your modified original version. Yum. Thanks for sharing.

[@AndersErickson]

Glad you liked it, Nathan! Cheers!

[@laurenreynolds9833]

I like to cut OJ with Regan's Orange bitters, and club. Now I gotta try angostura. It's a LOT of sweetness to compensate for, so true. I love it though! When the oranges are ripe and sweet you don't have to use much.

[@boozeontherocks]

Great comparison, You could the 70's version is for that crowd that will drink anything. It looks great but is lacking. Maybe not drinking one would be the best thing ?? But I do love what you did to the original. It looks really good.

hmm I always loved the 70s version... though that's maybe because I love orange juice in and of itself (and I also like grenadine so yeah).

[@chickenpotpie4045]

When you were making the original version, I kept thinking, it could do with a dash of Bitters. I dunno if you have, but when we're allowed to travel again, you should take a trip to Trinidad, my home country, and take a tour of the Angostura factory, it actually is pretty cool. They have a butterfly museum in there lol and a sampling room where you can try a few of Angostura's rums, there's only one Angostura rum that I've never tried, and it's only because it's literally the most expensive rum on the planet, Legacy by Angostura, still on my bucket list.

[@ceemills]

My favourite new Mezcal cocktail at the moment is a 'Guava Mezcal Mule.', 60mm Mezcal, 60mm Guava juice, 30mm Lime juice, dash Agave syrup, pinch of salt.. shaken then double strained over ice, then top with 60mm ginger beer..Yum!

[@williamvangundy3358]

Didn't have any Creme d' Cassis, but google says raspberry syrup is a substitute. I muddled some raspberries with 3/4oz rich simple syrup. Love how the updated cocktail came together.

[@censusgary]

I remember Tequila Sunrise from the 1970s and 80s (my high school and college years, roughly). I haven’t heard of the drink for decades. Now I want one, though. But the Sunrise of the 70s was a layered drink, as I remember it. You pour in grenadine syrup, orange juice, and tequila, in that order. You serve it without stirring or shaking any of the ingredients. That’s how you get the “sunrise” effect. (The drinker can stir it or not before downing it, but the layered colors are important to the presentation.) I’d like to try the creme de cassis version, too. The drink I remember having with cassis is kir (if I’m remembering the name right). You put some creme de cassis in the bottom of a wine glass, and then fill it up with white wine. This, too, was a layered drink. It was originally French. Or at least, I was introduced to it by French people.

[@johnbelew4313]

Thanks for another great video! It was also a lot of fun watching you and Az make a cocktail together. I'm excited to give your version a try.

[@1xayekim]

I like to make my Tequila Sunrises - 2 oz Reposado Tequila (Blanco works just fine but I just prefer Reposado) 3 oz Orange Juice 1 oz Lemon Juice Home Made Grenadine For me its a completely different drink but it looks like a typical Tequila Sunrise but the lemon juice fights off the sweetness of the Grenadine and OJ. Its really close to Margarita territory.

[@MisadelphiaSAR]

Funny enough, Trader Vic printed a version of the classic tequila sunrise in the 1972 version of his Bartender's Guide (must've been right before the newer one took off), which also used a split of cassis and grenadine!

[@diemutha666]

The bars I used to work in back in the 90's just poured a little granadine(with speed pourer on), along the inside of the glass at the last stage of building the drink. It was never measured, we eye-balled the drizzle as it was for the "sunrise" effect because we knew that grenadine was overly sweet and would've killed the drink if too much was poured. You may want to do that instead of measuring the grenadine.

[@jeffreymiller9438]

I tried the 1970s version, but I shaked the OJ and Tequila in ice, then strained into a highball glass that I filled with only a quarter ounce of grenadine then ice. a slight stir with the stir spoon gives a nice look. That seems to balance it well.

Yay to the original and the 2.0 version of this lovely cocktail!! I love the fresh lime juice and Angostura Bitters addition to the 2.0 version!! Great idea!! OJ is definitely my least favorite flavour/modifier to add to a cocktail. Overpowering. It ruins any cocktail IMO. I love the Creme de Cassis that you are using, Anders - Cassis de Dijon. Beautiful texture and flavour! I had no idea this original version of the Tequila Sunrise even existed. It's wonderful to learn!! And of course, it goes without saying, I love making my own Grenadine! Love the Tequilas that you chose!! Fabulous as usual!! Great video Anders!! :-) Have a fabulous weekend!! :-)

I'm preparing my cocktail menu for tomorrow's Superbowl LVIII party, SF v. KC repeat of LIV. I select drinks to represent each teams colors. I was reviewing the Tequila Sunrise and the Mexican Firing Squad when I came across your video comparing your El Diablo recipe to the original. Your and Az' improved original Biltmore AZ Tequila Sunrise is almost El Diablo (club soda instead of ginger beer). I plan to try it another time, since I have been drinking cocktails in preparation for tomorrow. Btw, your home made grenadine is much tastier than store bought, but I'm using the latter for the color effect. I always enjoy your videos. They are very clear, with the right amount of backstory, and not too long like some other shows.

[@williammullen7504]

For a better looking sunrise effect use cold grenadine. Tequila, Oj, and pour the grenadine in a slow circle around the glass rim. It will slowly drop down. Voila sunrise effect!!! It really doesn't change the taste at all. Just nice visual.

[@johanribaeus]

Thanks Anders! Gonna try your twist on the original one ASAP. I made me and my wife a Lucien Gaudin this evening ... Again. It's like a Negroni and a Dry Martini with a sweet orange twist all mixed up in one. I like it a lot. Take care and have a brilliant Friday!

from an amateur opinion. I use the 1970 recipe but with some changes. I use 1 ounce of tequila, 1 ounce of peach liqueur, up to the top of the glass with orange juice and a *dash* of grenadine. The worst idea was ½ oz of grenadine, it's too sweet 😖

[@cameronw981]

The sweetness of the 1970's Tequila sunrise is exactly why I add lime juice as well. The lime will complement the Tequila and not get drowned by the OJ and Grenadine. I also shake the Tequila and lime together before I add the oj.
