Tequila Sunrise Pitcher

Name: Tequila Sunrise Pitcher
Prep time: 10 min
Total time: 10 min
Yield: 8 drinks
Ingredients: 1.5 cups tequila (360 ml); 4 cups orange juice (960 ml); 0.5 cup grenadine (120 ml); orange slices, cherries, ice

A drink whose looks are its charm: pour the grenadine last and it sinks to the bottom in a red cloud. It is just tequila and orange juice with a little syrup, which is why it goes so well with salty, spicy tacos. Make the pitcher without the grenadine and add it in the glass.
