Peach Ginger Sunrise Mocktail (Refreshing & Easy) - Bright Flavor, No Alcohol

Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings 2 servings

Ingredients
  

  • For the peach-ginger base: 2 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced (or 1 cup frozen peaches, thawed)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely grated (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (more or less to taste)
  • 1/3 cup water
  • Pinch of salt (optional, boosts flavor)
  • For the mocktail: 2 tablespoons grenadine (for the “sunrise” effect)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (or lemon)
  • Ice cubes
  • 3/4 to 1 cup chilled ginger ale or sparkling water (ginger ale = sweeter, sparkling = lighter)
  • Peach slices and lime wheel, for garnish
  • Fresh mint, optional

Instructions
 

  • Make the peach-ginger base: In a blender, combine peaches, grated ginger, honey, water, and a pinch of salt. Blend until very smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness or ginger.
  • Strain (optional): For a silkier drink, strain the puree through a fine mesh sieve, pressing with a spoon. If you like pulp, skip this step.
  • Prepare the glass: Fill a tall glass with ice. Add 1–2 tablespoons lime juice, depending on how tangy you like it.
  • Add the base: Pour in 1/3 to 1/2 cup of the peach-ginger puree.
  • Top with bubbles: Gently add ginger ale or sparkling water, leaving some room at the top. Stir once to combine.
  • Create the sunrise: Slowly pour grenadine down the inside of the glass. It will sink and create a red-to-gold gradient.
  • Garnish and serve: Add a peach slice, a lime wheel, and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately while it’s cold and sparkling.
