Instructions
Step 1: Prepare your glassware
Choose tall, clear glasses to showcase the vibrant layers or colors. Fill glasses with ice cubes to keep the potion cold and help maintain color separation if layering.
Step 2: Mix the juices
In a pitcher or shaker, combine orange juice, cranberry/pomegranate juice, lemon juice, and pineapple juice. Stir gently but thoroughly to blend.
Step 3: Add sparkling water
Just before serving, gently pour in the chilled sparkling water or club soda to add fizz. Stir lightly to avoid losing bubbles.
Step 4: Add alcohol (optional)
For the cocktail version, stir in your choice of vodka, rum, or gin, along with a splash of triple sec or blue curaçao for an extra citrus kick and color.
Step 5: Garnish and serve
Garnish with maraschino cherries, lemon and lime wheels, and a sprig of fresh mint. Add colorful straws or edible glitter for an extra magical touch.

-
Use fresh juices whenever possible for the brightest flavors.
