Spicy Pomegranate Tequila Sunrise

I watched the Pioneer Woman this morning, like I do every Saturday, and she made a Tequila Sunrise and it looked so delicious! So, I had to make it on this crazy hot spring day. Only problem, grenadine is bad for you and maraschino cherries… don’t get me started.

So Google was kind enough to tell me that a great replacement for grenadine is pomegranate juice.

Oh, and I know the Pioneer Woman lives on a cattle ranch, but number one ☝ I am from Texas and grew up on beef (even though I don’t agree with any form of eating animals anymore). Number 2 I CAN MAKE IT VEGAN. Number 3, I’ve had two of these so far. 😘😘😘

Spicy Pomegranate Tequila Sunrise
(No formal measuring on this one)

Ice
Tequila (I used agave Tequila)
Pomegranate juice
Orange juice
Jalapeño juice
Jalapeño slices

In a mason har, or any cup, fill to the top with ice. Fill mason jar with 3/4 orange juice.

Here’s where it gets fun!

Add as much Tequila as you’d like. Add a generous splash of Pomegranate juice. 3 to 4 tablespoons of jalapeño juice from the jar (or more) and throw in a few jalapeño slice.

Bam! Enjoy 🥃🌅🌞
