MOTUS Twilight Nocturne Lounge #5: Then The Morning Comes!

Welcome to another evening at MOTUS’ Twilight Nocturne Lounge. If you’re a regular you know how it works. If you’re new here grab a seat and just nod at Little Mo – he’s the bartender - when you need a drink; he always knows what you want.

Our featured cocktail this evening is a  Tequila Sunrise, straight up or on the rocks:

Ice cubes,

1 ½ ounces tequila,

4 ½ ounces orange juice,

1 ½ teaspoons grenadine syrup.

 

Pour the tequila and orange juice into the glass, with or without ice. Slowly pour grenadine over a bar spoon into the center of the drink. Garnish with a lime slice, or an orange slice, and a maraschino cherry.

 

Done; let the morning come.

We’re changing the tempo up a bit tonight, with a little Rock & Roll.  First on stage, the Millennial sensation, Smash Mouth, with their hit “Then The Morning Comes” because it seems somehow appropriate:

"Then The Morning Comes": Smash Mouth

Paint the town
Take a bow

Thank everybody
You're gonna’ do it again
You are the few, the proud
You are the antibody
Mind soul, and zen

And the world's a stage

 
And the world's a faze
And the end is near

So push rewind

 
Just in time
Thank anybody
You're gonna’ do it again

The way the you walk

It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing

 
And every single day is just a fling

Then the morning comes

Take your knocks
Shake them off
Duck everybody
You're gonna’ take them again

You are your foe
Your friend
You are the paparazzi
You are the tragedian

And the world's a craze
And the world's a faze
And the end is near

So push rewind
Just in time
Thank anybody
You're gonna’ do it again

The way the you walk
It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing

And every single day is just a fling
And when it comes it moves so slow

 
Kinda’ like it's saying I told you so
Looking back before she goes
Tomorrow's gonna’ hurt

And the world's a stage

And the world's a faze
And the end is near

 

So push rewind
Just in time
Thank anybody
It's just the way that you walk

It's just the way that you talk
Like it ain't no thing

 

And every single day is just a fling

Then the morning comes!

 

 

Unfortunately we’ll be the ones with the hangover. Butt it will be worth it he’s “Gone, Girl” and we get a new dawn.

 

So then, to close out the evening and officially start the weekend, we’re gonna’ mellow down easy with another Tequila Sunrise. Little Mo’s mixing yours right now. If you need another, well, you know, just nod.

“Tequila Sunrise”: The Eagles

PS: did I mention that you can order your Tequila Sunrises as Jello shots? Supplies are limited, so place your orders early.
