Serving Size

Equipment

Large clear glass or mason jar
Measuring cups
Bar spoon or long-handled spoon
Ice cube tray
Jigger or small measuring cup
Small funnel (optional)
Decorative straws
Cutting board and knife (for fruit garnishes)

Ingredients

1 oz grenadine syrup
1 oz orange juice
1 oz pineapple juice
1 oz blue curaçao syrup non-alcoholic
Club soda or lemon-lime soda
Ice cubes
Fresh fruit for garnish orange slices, pineapple chunks, maraschino cherries
1 tablespoon sugar optional, for rimming the glass

All juices should be chilled beforehand for best results.

Instructions

Prepare the glass: If desired, rim your glass with sugar by wetting the rim and dipping it in sugar.
Create the bottom layer: Pour the grenadine into the bottom of the glass.
Add the second layer: Using the back of a spoon, slowly pour the orange juice over the grenadine. Pour gently so the layers don’t mix.

Add the third layer: Using the same technique, slowly add the pineapple juice.
Add the fourth layer: Again with the back of the spoon, slowly pour the blue curaçao syrup.
Finish with bubbles: Top with club soda or lemon-lime soda.

Garnish: Add fresh fruit to the rim of the glass and a decorative straw.

For best results, pour each layer very slowly. The different densities of the juices help them stay separate.

Notes

This mocktail can be adjusted based on preferences. For a less sweet version, use sparkling water instead of lemon-lime soda.

The mocktail is best served immediately after making, as the layers will eventually mix together.

For a party, prepare the juice layers in advance but add the soda just before serving.

Kids love this colorful drink for birthday parties. Meanwhile, adults can turn this into a cocktail by adding 1 oz of vodka or white rum to the top layer.

For a frozen version, blend each colored juice with ice separately, then layer in the glass for a rainbow slushy effect.

Tasting Notes

The Fruity Rainbow Fizz Mocktail offers a bright, refreshing flavor profile that balances sweetness with a pleasant tang. Each sip delivers a different taste sensation as the layers blend together.

The base layer provides a strong berry foundation with notes of strawberry and raspberry. These fruits create a sweet yet slightly tart undertone that forms the backbone of the drink.

The middle citrus layer adds a zesty punch with orange and lemon flavors. This section brightens the drink and cuts through the sweetness of the berries below.

The top blue layer contributes a mild blueberry taste with hints of coconut from the cream of coconut ingredient. This layer is the most subtle but adds visual appeal and a smooth finish.

The carbonation from club soda provides a pleasant fizz that tickles the palate and helps blend the flavors together when stirred.

Children particularly enjoy the changing flavors as they drink through the layers, while adults appreciate the complex flavor profile without the alcohol content.

The mocktail pairs well with light appetizers and desserts. Its tropical fruit notes make it perfect for summer gatherings or themed parties.

Substitutes

Can’t find some ingredients for the Fruity Rainbow Fizz Mocktail? Don’t worry! Many simple swaps work well.

No fresh fruit? Frozen fruits work just as well. They can even help keep your drink cold longer.

For the base juice, feel free to switch things up.

Apple juice can replace pineapple juice. Cranberry juice works instead of raspberry.

Common Substitutions:

Soda water → Tonic water or ginger ale
Pineapple juice → Apple juice or white grape juice
Raspberry syrup → Strawberry syrup or grenadine
Fresh berries → Frozen berries or berry puree

For a less sweet version, try using coconut water instead of fruit juice. This makes a lighter drink with fewer calories.

No fancy glasses? Any clear glass will show off the pretty layers. Mason jars or water glasses work perfectly.

If you need a non-carbonated option, use fruit tea instead of soda water.

Brew it ahead of time and chill before using.
