An alcoholic drink made by drinking half of a 40oz bottle of malt liquor (typically Old English 800) then topping off the bottle with Sunny Delight. (Some use Orange juice, but Sunny D or Orange Drank keep truer to the "Ghetto" origins of the drink)
1. When i woke up, I found half a left over 40 from last night, so I topped that off with some sunny D and started the day with a ghetto sunrise.

2. Person 1: "Yo what you doin to that 40"
Person 2: "Chill, I'm maikin myself a ghetto sunrise."

Get the Ghetto Sunrise mug.
The time when the unemployed, dealers, or other hood folks wake up, typically between 11am-12pm.
It’s almost noon, they aren’t they answering the phone? Well it’s barely past ghetto sunrise, what do you expect?
