Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh pineapple juice
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon agave syrup or honey (optional, adjust to taste)
- Club soda or sparkling water
- Ice cubes
- Fresh pineapple wedges for garnish
- Mint leaves or edible flowers for garnish
Instructions
- Blend the Juices: In a mixing glass, combine the pineapple juice, orange juice, and lime juice. If you prefer a sweeter taste, add agave syrup or honey to your liking. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are fully mixed.
- Chill: Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes. Pour the juice mixture over the ice and shake well for about 10-15 seconds to chill the mocktail.
- Prepare the Glass: Fill a tall glass with ice cubes to keep your drink cool and refreshing.
- Pour and Fizz: Strain the chilled juice mixture into the prepared glass, filling it about three-quarters of the way. Top up with club soda or sparkling water to add fizz and make your mocktail even more refreshing.
- Garnish: Add a wedge of fresh pineapple on the rim of the glass and a sprig of mint or a few edible flowers for a festive and spring-like appearance.
- Serve: Enjoy your Tropical Easter Breeze immediately, ideally accompanied by Easter treats and the company of loved ones.
Tips:
- For an extra Easter touch, serve the mocktail in glasses decorated with Easter-themed drink stirrers or ribbons.
- Consider adding a splash of grenadine for a lovely gradient effect and an extra hint of sweetness.
- This recipe can easily be multiplied to serve a crowd, making it perfect for larger Easter gatherings.
