You’re going to absolutely love this delicious and refreshing Calico Sunrise Cocktail!
Why did I name this drink after a sunrise? Because the colors of it remind me of the sunrise over the creek that I live on… yes, it’s called Calico Creek. I did my darndest to get a picture of the sunrise this morning and guess what? It was just as hazy and cloudy as could be. The one time I am prepared with all my camera gear and tripod at the crack of dawn. Oh well, maybe I’ll get it another morning {sigh}.
This recipe has coconut juice in it that you buy in a can. I found it in the juice section of my local grocery store.
What I enjoyed about this cocktail is that it was sweet and little tart, and well, just different. A nice change from the typical fruity rum cocktail.
You’ll need your favorite rum, pineapple juice, coconut juice, amaretto and grenadine. Shake all the ingredients except the grenadine in a shaker with ice. Pour into a glass, then add a little grenadine on top to give it the sunrise look. Enjoy!
