Ingredients
Scale
Fruits
- 1 cup Fresh Pineapple Chunks
- 1 cup Mango Cubes
- 1 Orange, sliced into thin rounds
- 1 Lime, cut into wedges
Liquid Base
- 2 cups Grape Juice (natural)
- 2 tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar (natural)
- 1 cup Club Soda, chilled
Additional Ingredients
- Fresh Mint Leaves, for garnish
- 1 teaspoon Natural Gelling Agent (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Fruit: Wash all the fruits thoroughly. Peel and chop pineapple and mango into bite-sized chunks. Slice the orange into thin rounds and cut the lime into wedges. This ensures each glass contains juicy bursts of refreshing sweetness.
- Mix the Base: In a large pitcher, combine the grape juice and apple cider vinegar. Stir gently to blend the sweet and tangy flavors, creating the inviting base for your Tropical Fruit Sangria Mocktail.
- Add Fruit and Natural Gelling Agent: Drop the prepared fruits into the liquid base. If using, dissolve the natural gelling agent separately and add it to the mixture while stirring well to achieve a playful, slightly thickened texture.
- Chill and Infuse: Place the pitcher in the refrigerator and allow the flavors to mingle for at least 2 hours. This resting time lets the fruits infuse their sweetness and aroma into the liquid, balancing the flavors perfectly.
- Add Fizz and Garnish: Just before serving, stir in the chilled club soda for a refreshing fizzy lift. Garnish each glass with fresh mint leaves and a few extra fruit slices for a vibrant, aromatic presentation.
Notes
- Use perfectly ripe pineapple and mango to enhance natural sweetness.
- Chill all liquid ingredients beforehand to keep the drink refreshingly cold without diluting flavors.
- Stir gently before serving, especially if using a natural gelling agent.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more grape juice or a touch of natural syrup if desired.
- Freeze some fruit chunks separately to use as flavorful ice cubes that keep the drink cold longer.
