Notes

Store extra pineapple juice in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Fresh sage leaves work best – dried sage won’t give the same bright flavor.
For a sweeter drink, add more honey. For less sweetness, reduce the honey or skip it.
Make a big batch by multiplying the recipe. Mix everything except the sparkling water, then add it just before serving.

Tasting Notes

The Pineapple Sage Sparkler offers bright, fresh flavors that dance on the tongue. Sweet pineapple notes blend smoothly with the herbal essence of fresh sage leaves.

A gentle fizz from the sparkling water creates a light, refreshing mouthfeel. The bubbles help carry the aromatic sage scent to enhance each sip.

The natural sweetness comes through without being overpowering. This balance makes it perfect for warm afternoons or as an alcohol-free dinner companion.

Key Flavor Elements:

  • Sweet tropical pineapple
  • Fresh garden sage
  • Crisp bubbles
  • Clean finish

The drink starts with a burst of pineapple followed by subtle sage undertones. These flavors fade into a clean, crisp finish that leaves you ready for the next sip.

At room temperature, the sage becomes more pronounced. Serving over ice helps maintain the ideal balance between fruit and herb notes.

Must Have Ingredients

Substitute

No fresh herbs at all? Try these alternatives:

These options work great to replace the sparkling water:

Note: When using dried herbs instead of fresh, start with a small amount and adjust to taste. Dried herbs have a stronger flavor than fresh ones.
