The Detroit Roar mocktail — bold tiger-orange drink with black sugar rim and orange wheel garnish

Ingredients

2 oz fresh orange juice
1.5 oz mango puree (fresh or frozen mango blended smooth)
0.5 oz fresh lime juice
0.5 oz simple syrup
1 oz sparkling water
Black sugar, for rim

Instructions

Rim a highball glass with black sugar: wet the rim with lime juice and dip into black sugar.
Fill the glass with ice.
In a shaker, combine orange juice, mango puree, lime juice, and simple syrup with ice.
Shake vigorously for 15 seconds — the mango needs to fully incorporate.
Strain over the ice in the prepared glass.
