Notes
To make perfect layers, pour each liquid slowly over the back of a spoon. This minimizes mixing and keeps the colors distinct. For an extra touch of fun, try rimming the glasses with orange sugar before you start.
Customize your mocktail by adding edible glitter to the whipped cream for sparkle, using coconut whipped cream for a vegan alternative, or adding a splash of lime juice for a tangy twist.
