MANGO-CHILE SUNRISE

Steps:

• Combine the sugar, chopped chiles and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved. Transfer to a small bowl and refrigerate until cold, at least 1 hour.
• Combine the rum, mango nectar and yuzu juice in a pitcher. Strain the chile syrup into the pitcher; stir until incorporated. Divide among ice-filled glasses. Add a few drops of grenadine to each drink and top with a splash of seltzer. Garnish with a halved chile.

SAN DIEGO SUNRISE

Steps:

• Put ice cubes in a martini shaker. Pour in the tequila, the orange juice and a splash of pineapple juice. Shake and pour into a martini glass. Pour small amount of grenadine down the side of the glass so that it settles to the bottom. Garnish with an orange slice and serve.

MEZCAL SUNRISE

Steps:

• Combine 1 cup mezcal and 3 cups orange juice in a pitcher; pour into 4 tall ice-filled glasses. Add a dash of grenadine to each glass and garnish with orange slices and maraschino cherries.

POLENTA SUNRISE

Steps:

• Brush an 8-by-8-2 1/2-inch glass baking dish with oil. Bring the water and kosher salt to a boil in a heavy, medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the polenta using a whisk to incorporate. Reduce the heat. Let simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the cream, using a whisk to incorporate. Cook until the consistency is soft and thick, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the Parmesan cheese, using a whisk to incorporate. Pour the polenta into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly into the dish using a large spatula or the back of a large spoon. Refrigerate until chilled. To make the salsa: Mix the sun-dried tomatoes, basil, balsamic vinegar, garlic and pepper together in a small bowl.
• To Assemble: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Trim the edges of the polenta and cut into 36 squares. Top each square with 1/2 teaspoon of the salsa. Place on a foil- or parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake until slightly warm, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve warm.
