Ingredients:
1 teaspoon dragon fruit powder
1 cup white grape juice
½ cup mango juice or mango puree
1 cup lemonade
Ice
Instructions:
Add dragon fruit powder, white grape juice, and mango juice, to a pitcher or bowl
Whisk to combine. (If some of the dragon fruit powder clings to the whisk, that is normal as the fruit powder gets sticky when liquids are added. You can also use a blender for convenience.)
Fill your serving glass with ice
Pour the mango dragon fruit mixture over the ice
Add your lemonade, and stir to combine
Notes:
If you would rather eyeball this recipe (our preference for a quick morning ritual) after you add your ice: Fill about 1/3 with the mango dragon fruit mixture, and then top off the remainder of the glass with lemonade.
If you like less sweet, add some fresh lemon juice or a less sweet lemonade. If you like it on the sweeter side use more of the mango dragon fruit mixture.
If you are having trouble mixing the powders, try using a blender instead of hand mixing. Or, pour your mixture through a fine mesh strainer to remove any un-dissolved powder before serving.
