Orangeade Mocktail
The Orangeade mocktail is a vibrant non-alcoholic beverage that is citrus-forward. It focuses on the sweet-tart flavour of freshly squeezed orange juice as its primary ingredient, and assembled directly over ice in a tall glass. The approachable characteristic of the concoction makes it extremely easy to recreate; its citrus and fizzy nature being a suitable option for summer months.

Tips & Suggestions
Preparation Tip 1
Prepare the simple syrup by steeping a few dried hibiscus petals in hot water, then strain and chill; this provides a lovely, delicate floral fragrance and a touch of scarlet hue.
Preparation Tip 2
Freeze tiny orange segments or thin lemon slices into some ice cubes. As they melt, they produce more fresh fruit flavour and visual appeal.
