  • 3 cups of orange juice (freshly squeezed or store-bought)
  • 1 cup of pineapple juice
  • 1/2 cup of lemon juice (freshly squeezed for extra zest)

  • Optional add-ins:
    • A few drops of orange food coloring to enhance the vibrant look
    • Candy corn or gummy worms for a spooky garnish

Instructions

Preparation

Here are the steps to make Jack-O-Lantern Juice:

Step 1: In a large pitcher, combine the orange juicepineapple juice, and lemon juice. Stir well to mix the flavors.

Step 2: If you like your drink sweeter, add 1 tablespoon of honey and stir until it dissolves completely.

Step 3: Slowly pour in the club soda, giving the juice a light fizz. Stir gently to maintain the carbonation.

Step 4: Add a few drops of orange food coloring if desired to make the juice more vibrant.

Step 5: Fill glasses with ice cubes, then pour the Jack-O-Lantern Juice over the ice.

Step 6: Garnish each glass with an orange slice and a few mint leaves. For an extra Halloween touch, you can hang candy corn or a gummy worm off the side of the glass.

Notes

  • Adjust the sweetness of the juice based on your preference. If the orange and pineapple juices are naturally sweet, you may not need to add honey.
  • For a stronger citrus flavor, use freshly squeezed juices instead of store-bought options.
  • The club soda should be added just before serving to keep the drink fizzy.
