# Ingredient List:

→ Pineapple-Ginger Syrup

01 - 1/2 cup pineapple juice

02 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar

03 - 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger

→ Drink Base

04 - 1 cup guava nectar, chilled

05 - 1/2 cup passionfruit juice, chilled

06 - 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk, chilled

07 - 1/4 cup pineapple-ginger syrup

08 - 1 cup ice cubes

→ Garnish

09 - Pineapple wedges, optional

# How to Make:

01 - In a small saucepan, combine pineapple juice, sugar, and grated ginger. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly to dissolve the sugar. Simmer for 5 to 7 minutes until slightly thickened. Strain through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl and allow to cool completely before use.

02 - In a shaker or large jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine chilled guava nectar, passionfruit juice, coconut milk, and 1/4 cup of the cooled pineapple-ginger syrup. Add ice cubes and seal the container. Shake vigorously for 30 seconds until well combined and frothy.

03 - Divide the mixture evenly between two tall glasses filled with fresh ice cubes. Pour slowly to maintain the frothy texture.

04 - Top each glass with pineapple wedges or edible flowers if desired. Serve immediately while cold and effervescent.

# Expert Tips:

01 -

It tastes like a fancy café drink but costs a fraction of the price and takes less time than waiting in line.
The homemade syrup is where the magic happens—it's so versatile you'll find yourself drizzling it into sparkling water, yogurt, or just drinking it by the spoonful when no one's looking.
Completely naturally sweet from the fruit juices, so there's zero guilt in having seconds on a hot day.

02 -

Don't skip the cooling step on your syrup—pouring hot liquid into cold juice is how you end up with separated, murky-looking drinks that taste less vibrant.
The shaking isn't just for show; it's what creates that beautiful frothiness that makes this feel less like juice and more like an actual beverage event.
