L.A. Sunrise is a cocktail made with vodka, creme de banana, pineapple juice and orange juice. The history of this cocktail is not very well-known, but it is believed that it was first invented during Prohibition in Los Angeles and with this prohibition came new drinking habits and trends which made the cocktail an icon of its time, an era where it became all too easy to find drinking establishments serving alcohol beverages at any hour of the day or night.
