Directions

  1. Make the Pineapple-Mango Base: In a blender, combine 2½ cups coconut water, 1 cup cut pineapple (fresh or frozen, thawed), ½ cup cut mango (fresh or frozen, thawed), juice of ½ lime, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1–2 tablespoons honey, maple syrup, or sugar-free sweetener of choice. Blend on high for 30 seconds until completely smooth and the mixture is a **thick, opaque vibrant golden-yellow** color.
  2. Assemble: Fill two glasses with ice. Pour ¼–½ cup pomegranate juice into the bottom of each glass.
  3. Slowly strain the pineapple-mango mixture over the pomegranate juice to create a stunning layered effect—the golden-yellow layer will float perfectly on top of the deep ruby-red pomegranate.
  4. Garnish with frozen or fresh pomegranate arils and an orange wedge.
  5. Stir before drinking or serve as-is to show off the beautiful layers. Enjoy!
