Ingredients
For The Sunrise Mocktail:
Ice
4–6 oz. (1/2–3/4 cup) orange juice
1/4 cup lemon-lime soda (like Sprite or 7-UP)
1 oz. (2 tbsp) grenadine syrup
Optional Garnishes:
Slice of orange or orange wedges
Maraschino cherries
Fresh mint
Pineapple wedges
Fresh strawberries or raspberries
Instructions
-
Fill a glass with ice.
-
Pour orange juice into the glass, filling it about 3/4 of the way.
-
Slowly add lemon-lime soda on top, allowing the two liquids to mix gently.
-
Carefully pour grenadine syrup into the glass, letting it sink to the bottom to create the sunrise effect.
-
Garnish with a slice of orange, maraschino cherry, fresh mint, pineapple wedges, or any other optional garnishes.
-
Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
Add a splash of pineapple juice for a tropical twist.
For a frozen version, blend the ingredients with ice for a slushy texture.
Reduce the amount of grenadine for a less sweet version, or swap with agave syrup.
If you want to change up the fruit base, try cranberry juice instead of orange juice for a new twist.
