I absolutely love pineapple juice – I’d have to get extra pineapple juice because I’d drink half of it before it made it into the mocktail! But this does sound like such an easy and fun drink for hot summer days. Also, I had no idea you could make your own grenadine syrup at home!!
David, it sure does hit the spot on a hot summer day. And yes, being able to easily make your own grenadine syrup is quite handy, as not all stores carry it!
We made these to sip on while poolside over the weekend and let me just say WOW!! I am terrible at creating fun, refreshing drinks and these directions were so easy to follow. Thanks so much for this recipe!
Sipping on this poolside sounds absolutely heavenly. I am so glad you liked it Cheri!
Who knew 3 easy to find ingredients can make sure a tropical virgin drink for a party! With all the fun garnishes this sparkling pineapple mocktail was a hit.
I am so glad you liked it. It really is such an easy way to stay refreshed!
