Gently pour in the sparkling water, stirring lightly to keep the bubbles intact.

Fun Variations & Customizations
🍍 Extra Pineapple Punch: Muddle fresh pineapple chunks in the glass before adding the liquid.

How to Give Your Glass a Sugar Coating
Want to give your Pineapple Coconut Sparkler a little extra touch of sweetness? Here’s how:
1️⃣ Prepare Your Glass Coating
Pour a little pineapple juice, honey, or simple syrup onto a small plate.
2️⃣ Dip the Glass
Turn your glass upside down and gently dip the rim into the liquid, making sure it’s evenly coated.
3️⃣ Coat with Sugar
On a separate plate, spread out granulated sugar (or coconut sugar for a caramelized touch). Roll the sticky edge of the glass into the sugar, pressing lightly so it sticks.
4️⃣ Let It Set
Allow it to dry for about a minute before pouring in your drink.
For an extra tropical touch, try mixing in a little lime zest or toasted coconut flakes into the sugar before coating.
