Ingredients

 

2 cups orange juice (chilled)

 

2 cups pineapple juice

 

1 cup mango juice or tropical fruit juice

 

2 cups soda (Sprite, 7UP, or sparkling water)

 

1 cup mixed fruit cocktail (drained)

 

1 cup small fruit jelly cubes or agar jelly (assorted colors)

 

2 tablespoons honey or sugar (optional, adjust to taste)

 

Ice cubes as needed

 

Instructions

 

Prepare jelly cubes in advance (using agar or flavored jelly) and chill until firm.

 

In a large mixing bowl or jug, combine orange juice, pineapple juice, and mango juice.

 

Add fruit cocktail and jelly cubes into the juice mixture.

 

Stir gently so the jelly and fruit are evenly distributed.

 

Just before serving, add soda for fizz and freshness.

 

Pour into bottles or glasses over ice and serve chilled.

 

Notes

 

Jelly cubes create the “floating colorful pieces” effect seen in the drink.

 

Soda should be added last to keep it fizzy.

 

Use chilled juices for best refreshing taste.

 

Tips

 

Freeze fruit juice into ice cubes for extra flavor.

 

Add basil seeds or chia seeds for a trendy variation.

 

Use clear bottles to show off the colorful layers.
