Firecracker Fizz mocktail with red pomegranate, white coconut, and blue butterfly pea flower layers in a tall glass

Ingredients

2 oz pomegranate juice
0.5 oz grenadine
1.5 oz coconut cream
0.5 oz simple syrup
2 oz butterfly pea flower sparkling water (or blue-tinted sparkling water)
Ice cubes
Red, white, and blue star sprinkles for garnish
Maraschino cherry and blueberries for garnish

Instructions

Fill a tall highball glass with ice cubes.
Combine pomegranate juice and grenadine. Pour slowly over the ice — this is your red layer.
In a small bowl, mix coconut cream and simple syrup until smooth. Using the back of a spoon held just above the red layer, slowly pour the coconut cream to create the white middle layer.
Slowly pour the butterfly pea flower sparkling water over the back of a spoon to create the blue top layer.
Garnish with a cherry, a few blueberries on a pick, and a sprinkle of star-shaped sprinkles on top.
Serve immediately — do not stir. Let your guests admire the layers before drinking.
