The picture you have of yours looks almost like red wine – how much grenadine is in that? I made the recipe as described and mine doesn’t look anything like yours.

This is great.I didn,t have any grenadine so my sister=in law gave me some

A great variation on a tequila sunrise! This is one of my friends favorite drinks to order at the bar, but I've never tried to make it. I might try this with light rum in the future, but my roommate and I both really loved this! Thanks Mme Melissa!

I thought this was a good drink, I did sub coconut rum for the dark rum and gave it a little bit of a twist. I thought it was easy to make as well.
