Tasting Notes
The Pineapple Blueberry Margarita Mocktail is a vibrant, fruity twist on the classic margarita—completely alcohol-free and refreshingly bright. Tart lime juice lays the zesty foundation, while pineapple juice brings tropical sweetness and blueberry syrup adds rich berry depth and a gorgeous hue. Sparkling water finishes the drink with light effervescence, making it crisp and refreshing. The salted rim offers a savory contrast to the sweet-and-sour mix, and the blueberry and pineapple garnishes make it just as beautiful as it is flavorful.
