Recipe by Yum Recipes Now

Lime juice

 Pineapple juice

Blueberry syrup

Sparkling water

Salt

 

Instructions: Start by rubbing a lime wedge around the rim of your glass. Then, dip the rim into a plate of salt to coat it evenly. In a shaker or mixing glass, combine 3/4 ounce of fresh lime juice, 1/2 ounce of pineapple juice, and 1/2 ounce of blueberry syrup. Stir or shake gently to blend the flavors without diluting the vibrant colors. Strain the chilled mixture into your salted rim glass filled halfway with fresh ice. Then, top it off with sparkling water.
