Tips
- The photo above shows how much you need to remove from the bottle to ensure all the good stuff fits in!
- Don’t shake the bottle to mix. The Corona is carbonated so it will explode everywhere if you try and shake it.
- Any lager would work, despite the recipe name (Corona Sunrise).
- Scale up and make a “party punch”. Just add all the ingredients into a large pitcher and serve when ready to party! As the Corona is carbonated, and can go flat, don’t make it too far in advance.
- Use fresh squeezed orange juice for the best quality.
Recipe Variations
Mix it up with these easy recipe variations.
- Change Up The Juice – replace the orange juice with pineapple juice, guava juice, passion fruit juice, etc. for an extra tropical flavor.
- Change Up the Liquor – White rum or vodka would be killer in this drink. We love it with pineapple rum!
- Replace the Grenadine with Cranberry Simple Syrup!
