From our friend @little_cantina:
"This libation is a riff on the classic Tequila Sunrise. Instead of using Grenadine I used some raspberry simple syrup I had on hand. The raspberry SS has more sugar content so when you pour it on top, along the side of your glass, it will float to the bottom. This makes for a great visual of course, but right before drinking, I like to give it a quick stir so the syrup is combined with the OJ and I can really taste the raspberry throughout instead of getting nothing but sugar at the bottom of my drink."
