Ingredients
Scale
Main Alcohol-Free Ingredients:
- 4 ounces (118 milliliters) orange pineapple juice
Sweeteners and Syrups:
- 0.5 ounces (15 milliliters) grenadine syrup
Garnish and Flavor Enhancers:
- 2–3 dashes orange bitters
- Ice
- 1 slice grapefruit, orange, or pineapple
Instructions
- Chill a highball glass by filling it completely with ice cubes, ensuring the glass is cold and ready for the vibrant mocktail.
- Pour 2 to 3 dashes of aromatic orange bitters into the ice-filled glass, creating a subtle citrusy foundation.
- Carefully pour orange pineapple juice over the ice and bitters, filling the glass approximately 3/4 full and creating a golden liquid base.
- Slowly drizzle grenadine syrup along the inner edge of the glass, allowing it to naturally cascade and create a stunning layered effect with the juice.
- Watch as the grenadine gradually sinks and then elegantly rises through the juice, forming a beautiful gradient of deep red and bright orange colors.
- Select a fresh citrus garnish – choose either a grapefruit, orange, or pineapple slice – and delicately place it on the rim of the glass for a decorative touch.
- Serve the mocktail immediately while the ice is still cold and the layers are visibly distinct, ensuring maximum visual appeal and refreshing taste.
Notes
- Creates a stunning layered effect with vibrant colors that transition from bottom to top.
- Use fresh, high-quality orange pineapple juice for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
- Grenadine adds a beautiful ruby-red gradient and subtle pomegranate-like sweetness to the drink.
- Chill the glass beforehand to keep the mocktail cooler and more refreshing for longer.
- Experiment with different citrus garnishes to personalize the visual appeal and add a zesty touch.
- Ideal for summer parties, brunches, or as a non-alcoholic alternative for all ages.
