For this cocktail, I was inspired by the tequila sunrise cocktail and beautiful Hawaiian sunsets :) I also wanted to creat a nice refreshing drink for the summer months. ...............................................................

  • I prefer to use 7-Up, for the lemon lime soda, but you can use any brand you want.
  • I prefer Corazon Blanco tequila.
