Diwali 2019- Keep Yourself Fresh With Pineapple Mocktail

Fruit juices and many soft drinks keep us cool and hydrated. They have high nutrition value, provided they are not artificially flavored, sugar loaded, commercially made cold drinks. For this pineapple mocktail I have used fresh pineapple juice, though you can use canned juice as well. To that I have added Sprite (cold drink) and rose syrup. Since, both Sprite and rose syrup are sweet, there is no need to add extra sugar.

Ingredients

1 cup pineapple juice
2 cups lime lemon soda such as Sprite
2 tablespoons rose syrup I used Roohafza
1 cup crushed ice
2 pineapple wedges for decoration (optional)
2 small sprigs mint leaves for decoration (optional)

Method

* Take two tall glasses. In order to get nice color gradient, first put crushed ice in the glasses.

* Pour pineapple juice on ice. Then add Sprite.

* Over this add rose syrup. Being the heaviest it will settle down at the bottom.

* Stir the mixture a little bit so that the contents get slightly mixed, but still they can be seen separately.

* Decorate the glass with pineapple wedges and mint leaves, or with decorative straw of your choice.

* Serve chilled.
