Lemon and lime slices, optional
Pineapple wedge or fronds, optional

Combine the juices in a large pitcher or punch bowl and stir. Add thin slices of lemon and lime for extra flavor and appearance if desired. Serve in glasses over ice, leaving enough room to top with club soda and garnish with pineapple fronds or a thin wedge of pineapple.

Tip: When using lemon and lime slices as garnishes, cut thin slices instead of thick slices. The thinner they are, the better they float. The trick to getting thin slices is to cut straight down on the fruit.
