A large glass pitcher filled with a deep red blood orange and pineapple punch, garnished with floating citrus wheels and fresh mint, set on a wooden table.

Ingredients

3 cups blood orange juice, chilled
2 cups pineapple juice, chilled
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon orange blossom water
3 cups ginger ale, chilled
Garnish: 1 blood orange, thinly sliced into wheels
Garnish: 1 lemon, thinly sliced into wheels
Garnish: 4-5 fresh mint sprigs

Instructions

Combine the blood orange juice, pineapple juice, and fresh lemon juice in a large 2-quart glass pitcher.
Add the orange blossom water and stir thoroughly with a long-handled spoon to ensure even distribution.
Slowly pour the chilled ginger ale down the side of the pitcher to maintain maximum carbonation.
Give the mixture one gentle stir to integrate the bubbles with the fruit juices.
Add the blood orange and lemon slices directly to the pitcher for visual appeal and a hint of zest.
Pour into ice-filled glasses and finish each with a fresh mint sprig.
