Notes

For best results, use chilled ingredients to keep your mocktail colder for longer and prevent the ice from melting too quickly. Pour each ingredient slowly and gently to create distinct layers. Avoid stirring the mocktail after adding the grenadine to maintain the layering effect. Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more or less grenadine. You can also add a squeeze of fresh lime or lemon juice to balance the sweetness. Get creative with your garnishes to personalize your Tropical Sunrise Mocktail. You can juice your oranges and pineapple a day or two in advance and store them in the refrigerator. Chop your fruit and prepare your garnishes ahead of time to save time on the day of. This drink is best enjoyed fresh, avoid storing the fully assembled Sunrise Mocktail for an extended period, as the ice will melt and dilute the flavors.
