Pineapple Grapefruit Sparkler
Pour equal parts pineapple juice and chilled Hansen’s Sparkling Cranberry Grapefruit in a wine glass. Garnish with a pineapple wedge, and done!
This concept works well with “Mimosa Mocktails," too. Simply top the O.J. with Sparkling Valencia Orange instead of champagne and serve in champagne flutes garnished with a slice of orange.

Tantric Kiss
Splash of orange blossom water
3 1/2 ounces vodka
1 1/2 ounces fresh pineapple juice
1 ounce cranberry juice
Splash of peach schnapps
1 pansy blossom, for garnish
Pour a splash of orange blossom water into a chilled martini glass and swirl it around to coat the glass with essence of orange blossom.
Add vodka to an ice-filled shaker. (Use vodka that is highly distilled with a pure flavor that won’t take away from the freshness of the fruits.)
Add pineapple juice to the shaker. If possible, use fresh juice, or a brand of juice that has no added sugar. Just before shaking, add cranberry juice to the shaker. Shake vigorously - these juices won’t bruise. The colder the juices, the better.
Strain mixture into martini glass, making sure to pour "around the glass" to catch all the drippings of orange blossom water.
