Coconut Campari Tequila Sunrise

This tropical tequila sunrise riff is much more interesting (and less sugary) than the classic. Ditch the grenadine in favor of Campari and add some coconut rum to create the perfect brunch cocktail.

Ingredients

  • Honey and shredded coconut for preparing the glass (optional)
  • 0.5 oz Campari
  • 1 oz blanco tequila
  • 0.5 oz 80-proof coconut rum
  • 3 oz fresh-squeezed orange juice
  • Orange wheel for garnish

Instructions

  1. Brush a rocks glass with honey and then roll it in shredded coconut (optional).
  2. Fill the prepared glass with ice and add the Campari directly to the glass.
  3. Add the tequila, rum, and orange juice to a cocktail shaker and shake with ice.
  4. Gently pour the rum and orange juice mixture into the serving glass using a fine-mesh strainer, allowing it to mix partially but not completely with the Campari layer.
  5. Garnish with an orange wheel.
