A big brunch on Easter morning is a long-standing family tradition. Usually simple orange juice suffices, but if you are planning something a little more fun and festive, this pineapple mocktail is delicious and unexpected. It only takes 3 easy ingredients, but the addition of pineapple juice really adds a bright, spring-like flavor. If someone in the group doesn’t drink soda, you can just leave it out, but I really like the bubbly flavor it gives to the juice.
Kids and adults will ask for seconds! If you would like to make a big batch, punch-style, you can do that too. Just add 2 parts pineapple juice to 2 parts soda to 1 part orange juice. You can top it with orange sherbet to up the fun factor and make it creamier. Enjoy, and Happy Easter!

I love this. We do sparkling cider for special occasions so the kids can have too. This looks like a wonderful kid friendly option that Mom and Dad will enjoy as well.

We love pineapple around here — we’ll probably try this with club soda to cut down on the sugar.
Thanks for sharing on The Thoughtful Spot! Always great to see you stop by!

Is there another fruit that can replace pineapple? I’m sure there is. I’m allergic to pineapple!

Thanks, Lori! I am a big fan of mocktails because I do NOT want to tempt my kids by having alcohol in my house. Sometimes, I like to pretend. LOL!
