Rose Sunrise is a summer mocktail recipe with fruity floral notes inspired by the famous ‘Tequila Sunrise Cocktail’. This sunrise mocktail recipe is made without any alcohol & is great to serve in parties or can be enjoyed just like that on any hot day.
The original Sunrise cocktail drink is made using grenadine syrup, orange juice, tequila and is served unmixed in tall glasses. Grenadine syrup is traditionally made from pomegranate and is deep red in colour. The drink is served with a orange slice or maraschino cherry.
In this mocktail recipe, instead of grenadine syrup I have used rose syrup and skipped tequila altogether. I would suggest using freshly squeezed orange juice but you can use packaged ones too.
This sunrise cooler drink is an absolute head turner with its gorgeous florid orange red colour blend. The fruity orange flavour combines really well with subtle rose aroma. It is so easy to make, perfect for house parties. brunch, pool party, holi party & even for kids’ birthday party.
It is summer time, when sun is blazing at its peak and you cannot even imagine stepping out of your house in this sweltering heat. On the positive side, it is also time for long summer vacations, visiting grandparent’s house, enjoying ice-creams. sorbets, sherbets and slushies without the fear of being scolded upon.
Little bit of lime juice balances the sweetness from orange juice & rose syrup. However if you are using fresh orange juice & it is already sour in taste, then skip lime juice and add some sugar syrup to balance the sweet-sour notes.
If you want to make alcoholic version for adults, add a shot of tequila or vodka in each glass.
A glass of chilled rose sunrise drink on one of these hot sultry day is surely going to refresh the senses. More summer cooler recipes you might like:
