Trust me you’ll never go back to making a basic mocktail after this guide. Learn some rules to live by for the perfect mocktail, including basing your drink off seasonal fruits, creating ombre effects, and focusing on a great garnish.
Begin by taking your oranges, dipping them in your sugar, and setting aside. Next, thinly slice your oranges and lemon and set aside. Add ice 3/4th the way up the pitcher and top with your sliced fruit. Lastly, add your juice blend according to sugar content to create an ombre effect. Start with the highest sugar content juice then top with the other, top with sparkling water, and mix when ready to serve.
