Add simple syrup gradually, tasting as you go. Remember, pineapple sweetness varies, so adjust to your preference and your guests' tastes.

Fill tall glasses with generous amounts of ice, then pour the blue mixture about 3/4 full. Top with sparkling water just before serving and stir gently to maintain those precious bubbles.
06 -
Top each glass with a pineapple wedge, lime wheel, and fresh mint sprig. Add a cherry for that extra pop of color, and don't forget those fun paper umbrellas for the full tropical experience!
