Traditionally, fizzy drinks have been the go-to companion for pizza, but juice lovers know the right blend can elevate the dining experience. At ParterRecommunity, we’ve teamed up with local experts to craft juice pairing ideas that align with our menu. Whether you’re dining in or grabbing takeout, these suggestions will help you discover the ideal juice for your favorite pizza style.
Classic Margherita: Tomato Basil Juice or Pomegranate Blend
The simple Margherita—tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil—benefits from a juice that won’t overpower its delicate notes. A homemade tomato basil juice offers bright acidity to mirror the tomatoes while giving enough structure to complement the cheese. Alternatively, a light pomegranate blend provides red-fruit nuances that enhance the tomatoes’ sweetness and echo the herbaceous basil.
Our specific recommendation: We enjoy pairing Margherita with our signature Tomato Basil Cooler or, for a sweeter option, a locally sourced Pomegranate Blueberry blend.
Pepperoni and Meat Lovers: Spiced Cherry or Blackcurrant
Pizzas loaded with cured meats need juices with body and spice to mirror their bold flavors. Spiced cherry juice, with jammy fruit and a peppery finish, pairs wonderfully with the saltiness and heat of meat toppings. For another option, try blackcurrant juice, which offers rustic dark fruit notes and a tangy finish that cuts through the richness of the meats.
Our specific recommendation: Our guests particularly enjoy our house-made Spiced Cherry Elixir or Organic Blackcurrant Supreme with our Meat Feast pizza.
Mushroom and Truffle: Beetroot or Forest Berry
The earthy, umami-rich flavors of mushrooms and truffles pair well with juices that carry similar notes. Beetroot juice presents gentle earthy aromas that complement fungi, with natural sweetness balancing the richness. A forest berry blend also works nicely, developing complex berry flavors that reflect the earthiness of the dish.
Our specific recommendation: Try our Wild Mushroom pizza with Cold-Pressed Beetroot Juice or Wild Forest Berry Medley.
Seafood Pizza: Citrus Splash or Sea Buckthorn
For pizzas featuring prawns, clams, or other seafood, crisp juices with mineral notes are ideal companions. A citrus blend adds refreshing brightness that enhances the seafood flavors, while Sea buckthorn juice offers high acidity, a tropical character, and a tart finish that won’t overwhelm delicate seafood.
Our specific recommendation: Our Mediterranean Seafood pizza pairs beautifully with our Citrus Splash or Organic Sea Buckthorn Nectar.
Vegetable Supreme: Green Detox or Cucumber Melon
Vegetable-topped pizzas benefit from juices with herbal notes. A green detox juice with spinach, celery, and apple echoes and enhances the flavors of peppers, artichokes, and other vegetables. Cucumber melon juice provides a refreshing touch and light body that stands up to various textures without overpowering them.
Our specific recommendation: Our Garden Harvest pizza finds harmony with Daily Green Detox or Chilled Cucumber Melon Refresh.
Four Cheese Pizza: Creamy Almond or Sparkling Apple
The richness of a four-cheese pie calls for either a complementary or contrasting pairing. A creamy almond milk offers nutty notes that align with the cheese blend, while a sparkling apple juice cuts through the richness with its effervescence and acidity, and its fruity character provides a pleasant balance to the savory cheeses.
Our specific recommendation: Our Quattro Formaggi pizza pairs wonderfully with Vanilla Almond Milk or Sparkling Apple Crisp.
Spicy Pizzas: Mango Lassi or Ginger Turmeric
For pizzas with chili, bold sausage, or hot honey, creamy or spicy juices bring welcome relief. Mango lassi cools the palate with its smooth texture, while ginger turmeric juice stands up to heat and adds an intriguing flavor contrast along with potential health benefits.
Our specific recommendation: Our Spicy Diavola pizza finds its match in Homemade Mango Lassi or Firefly Ginger Turmeric Boost.
Dessert Pizza: Berry Smoothie or Chocolate Almond
Adventurous dessert pizzas, such as Nutella with fruit, pair best with sweet drinks. Mixed berry smoothies complement fruit-topped desserts, while chocolate almond milk complements chocolate-hazelnut variations. The key is ensuring the drink is at least as sweet as the dessert.
Our specific recommendation: Our Nutella and Strawberry Dessert Pizza pairs beautifully with Triple Berry Blast or Dark Chocolate Almond Milk.
Tips for Pizza and Juice Pairing
- Consider the dominant flavor on the pizza, not just the crust or sauce
- High-acid juices generally work well with tomato-based pizzas due to tomatoes' natural acidity
- Sparkling juices are versatile options that suit almost any pizza
- Don’t be afraid to experiment—unexpected pairings can create memorable moments
