Myrtle Sunrise - Summary

The Myrtle Sunrise is a vibrant and refreshing cocktail that captures the essence of tropical relaxation with a hint of playful sophistication. This drink combines the exotic flavors of Captain Morgan Parrot Bay Mango Rum with the sweet, berry-like allure of strawberry liqueur, creating a harmonious blend that is both fruity and slightly tangy. The addition of orange soda not only adds a fizzy, refreshing element but also infuses the cocktail with a citrusy brightness that enhances the overall tropical feel. The result is a colorful, layered drink reminiscent of a breathtaking sunrise, perfect for sipping on a warm day or at a lively gathering.

The origins of the Myrtle Sunrise are somewhat obscure, as many cocktails are born from experimentation and creativity rather than a singular point in history. Its name likely draws inspiration from the vibrant colors of a sunrise and the myrtle plant, which is often associated with love and immortality in various cultures. The use of mango rum and strawberry liqueur reflects modern mixology trends that favor bold, fruit-forward flavors. This drink has become a favorite among those who appreciate the balance of sweet and citrus notes with a touch of tropical flair, making it a delightful choice for casual social settings and beachside parties alike.

This drink style is classified as a Cocktail and is Alcoholic, so drink responsibly! The recommended glass type for this drink is a Highball Glass. We say, feel free to serve it in whatever you have available; it will still taste the same :)

You may also use different variations of the same ingredient. For example, you could change up fruit types or sugar substitutes. Other substitutions would include different brands of liquor. For example, if your drink calls for a specific type of whiskey, you could try using bourbon instead of Irish.

Crafting cocktails should be fun, so get creative and make it your own. Who knows, you might find your next favorite!
