The legendary Arizona Biltmore, the "Jewel of the Desert," is
renowned for its Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired design and luxurious
facilities. The resort’s sleek Wright Bar with its majestic panorama
of Squaw Peak is the right place to find trend-setting martinis and
the original Tequila Sunrise, famous in songs,
movies and pop culture. The cocktail was created at the Arizona Biltmore
Resort & Spa circa late 1930s-early 1940s. A frequent guest
who loved tequila asked the bartender, Gene Sulit, to
surprise him with a refreshing drink he could enjoy
poolside. The iconic Tequila Sunrise--blending soda and
tequila with Crème de Cassis and fresh lime juice--was born.
