Ingredients

Scale

Mocktail Base

  • 1/4 cup strawberry lemonade
  • 1/4 cup tropical fruit punch
  • 1/4 cup orange juice (no pulp)
  • 1 tbsp mango syrup or peach syrup (optional, for extra candy kick)
  • Splash of lemon-lime soda or sparkling water
  • Ice cubes

Optional Creamy Drip

  • 1 tbsp sweetened condensed milk (for a creamy Starburst swirl)

Decoration and Garnishes

  • Edible glitter or neon food coloring (optional for visual drip effect)
  • Mini skewers of Starburst candies
  • Sugar or colored sugar for rim
  • Colorful rock candy stick or straw (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Glass: Rim the edge of a tall glass by dipping it into lemon juice and then into colored sugar or crushed candy for a sweet, sparkling border. For an eye-catching candy drip effect, optionally drip sweetened condensed milk tinted with neon pink or orange down the inside walls of the glass.
  2. Mix the Mocktail: In a shaker filled with ice, combine the strawberry lemonade, tropical fruit punch, orange juice, and optional mango or peach syrup. Shake gently to chill and blend the flavors without diluting too much.
  3. Pour & Fizz: Fill the prepared glass with fresh ice cubes, then pour the chilled juice mixture over the ice. Top off the mocktail with a splash of lemon-lime soda or sparkling water to add refreshing fizz and lightness.
  4. Garnish & Serve: Finish by garnishing the drink with mini skewers of Starburst candies or a colorful rock candy stick for a fun presentation. Optionally sprinkle edible glitter or add a drop of neon food coloring to intensify the vibrant candy-inspired colors. Serve immediately for the best visual and taste experience.

Notes

  • Use fruit juices with no pulp to ensure a smooth pour and clear presentation.
  • Adjust the amount of mango syrup to increase or decrease sweetness and candy flavor intensity.
  • The sweetened condensed milk drip is optional but adds a creamy texture and visual appeal reminiscent of melting candy.
  • Edible glitter and neon food coloring are purely decorative and safe for consumption.
  • For a vegan version, omit the sweetened condensed milk or use a plant-based alternative.
  • Serve immediately after preparation to preserve the fizz and vibrant appearance.
