Chill a martini glass in advance to prepare for serving.

Add the rye whiskey, freshly squeezed lemon juice, orange juice, and grenadine syrup to a cocktail shaker.

Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously until well chilled.

Strain the mixture into the chilled martini glass.

Drop in an ice cube and top with a splash of sparkling water for a refreshing finish.

Garnish with a twist of orange zest to enhance the aroma and flavor.
