Tasting Notes

To make Giggle Juice, you’ll need a large pitcher for mixing, a sharp knife and cutting board for fruit prep, and a stirring spoon. For serving, stemless wine glasses work best, especially with a sugared rim for extra flair. A plate for sugaring the rims and optional garnish tools complete the setup.

Equipment and Glassware

To craft the perfect batch of Giggle Juice, you’ll need a large pitcher to mix and infuse the flavors. A sharp knife and cutting board are essential for prepping fresh fruit. For serving, stemless wine glasses work best, especially with a sugared rim. A bar spoon ensures smooth mixing, and fresh mint adds a refreshing garnish.

Ingredients

• 2 cups strawberries
• 1 lemon
• 750 mL Moscato wine
• 3 cups pink lemonade
• 12 ounces lemon-lime soda
• 1 cup vodka or citrus vodka
• Granulated sugar for glasses optional
• Fresh mint for garnish

Instructions

Step 1: Prep the Fruit

• Rinse and Dry: Start by rinsing the strawberries and lemon. Dry them thoroughly.
• Slice: Slice the strawberries, discarding the stems. Cut the lemon in half and then slice it into half-moons.
• Combine: Place the sliced fruit into the bottom of a large pitcher.

Step 2: Mix the Drink

• Pour: Add the Moscato wine, pink lemonade, lemon-lime soda, and vodka into the pitcher with the fruit.
• Stir: Stir everything together until well mixed.
• Chill: You can serve it immediately or chill it in the fridge until you’re ready to enjoy.

Step 3: Prepare the Glasses

• Sugar Rim (Optional): Dip the rim of each stemless wine glass into water, then into a plate of granulated sugar to create a sugared rim.
• Serve: Carefully fill each glass with Giggle Juice, making sure to include some of the fruit.
• Garnish: Add a sprig of fresh mint to each glass for a final touch.

Pro Tips

For the best flavor, let the drink chill for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the fruit to infuse. Use frozen strawberries instead of ice cubes to keep it cold without diluting. Adjust the sweetness by using dry Moscato or reducing the lemonade. A splash of prosecco adds extra fizz.

When to Serve

Giggle Juice is the ultimate party punch, ideal for summer barbecues, brunches, bridal showers, and girls’ nights. Its light and bubbly nature makes it perfect for warm-weather entertaining, poolside lounging, and festive gatherings where you want a fun, Instagram-worthy cocktail to impress guests.

Which Liquor Brands to Choose

For the best taste, choose a fruity Moscato like Barefoot or Stella Rosa. When selecting vodka, citrus-flavored brands like Absolut Citron or Deep Eddy Lemon enhance the bright flavors. If you prefer classic vodka, go for Tito’s or Grey Goose for a smooth finish.
