Time 15m

Yield 4 drinks

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 navel oranges (make sure 1 of them fits in the rim of a lowball or rocks glass)
1 cup silver tequila
1 cup limeade
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon blue curacao
1/4 cup grenadine

Steps:

  • Slice the orange that fits in the rim of a lowball or rocks glass into four 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Use your thumb or the tip of a paring knife to create a small whole in the center of each orange round.
  • Cut the second orange to create 4 thick wedges. These represent shark fins. Push each shark fin wedge into the center of an orange round.
  • In a large cocktail shaker filled with ice, add the tequila, limeade, lime juice and blue curacao. Shake vigorously and strain into 4 serving glasses.
  • Place a shark fin orange garnish into each serving glass, making sure the orange round rests on the surface of the drink.
  • Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the grenadine over each shark fin garnish. As it drips into the blue cocktail, it represents the blood of a shark attack. Serve immediately.
