The Tequila Sunrise 

No cocktail exudes aesthetic credentials in quite the way this summer classic does. Yet the drink, much like the spirit it's based on, is simplicity itself – tequila, grenadine (a pomegranate-based liqueur) and orange juice. Created in the 1930s, the drink originally used crème de cassis, lime and soda water up until the 1970s, when the present-day libation was reborn. Concocting the vivid layers of colour in the glass, which resemble the summer sunrise, is more than enough to whet the appetite; it's Instagram in a glass.
