Instructions

For Pitcher Style:

In a large pitcher, combine pineapple juice, dragon fruit lemonade, vodka, lemon juice, and triple sec.
Stir well to mix everything evenly.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors come together.
Serve over ice in cocktail glasses and garnish with citrus slices.

For Martini Style:

Rim your martini glass with lemon juice and dip in sugar (optional, but so pretty!).

Shake well for 10–15 seconds until chilled.
Strain into the prepared martini glass and garnish with a lemon twist or slice.

Notes

Can’t find dragon fruit lemonade? Just mix pink lemonade with a splash of cranberry or acai juice for a similar look and flavor.
Want it fizzy? Add a splash of sparkling water or lemon-lime soda to each serving.
Make it non-alcoholic by swapping vodka and triple sec with coconut water and a splash of orange juice.
For a frozen twist, blend with ice for a slushie-style cocktail!

Store the pitcher version in the fridge for up to 2 days—just stir before serving.
