Sunrise Fruit Mocktail

Kitchen Princess is a manga by Natsumi Ando and Miyuki Kobayashi in which every chapter is named after a dish. This is our own quick, family-friendly version of that dish, not the recipe from the book.

Mocktails are drinks made to look fancy, with no alcohol at all. This one shows off layers without any special skill.

Make it a learning moment: the red syrup sinks because it is heavier (denser) than juice, since it has much more sugar in it. Stir it and watch the layers mix.
