Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Spread a layer of salt in a shallow dish. Run a lime wedge around the rims of 4 highball glasses to moisten them, then dip each rim into the salt to coat.
-
Step 2.
In a blender, combine the frozen orange juice concentrate, orange juice, tequila, Cointreau or triple sec, and lime juice. Add the crushed ice and pulse until smooth. Divide the margarita evenly among the 4 salt-rimmed glasses.
-
Step 3.
Tilt each glass slightly and slowly pour 1 tablespoon of grenadine down the inside edge of the glass; the grenadine will sink to the bottom, creating a sunrise effect. Garnish each drink with an orange slice and a maraschino cherry, then serve immediately.
