Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by preparing your champagne flutes. Make sure they are clean and dry.
  2. Pour equal amounts of orange juice and non-alcoholic sparkling wine into the flute. A good measure to start with is about four ounces of each.
  3. Gently pour in the grenadine to let it settle at the bottom and create a layered effect.
  4. Garnish your mocktail with your choice of fruit like slices of fresh orange, a few berries, or a sprig of mint.
  5. Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing drink!

Notes

This mocktail is best served fresh. Prepare orange juice a day in advance for convenience, but add sparkling wine and grenadine just before serving to maintain fizz. Pair with healthy snacks or meals for a complete experience.
