Though soda is traditionally seen as the go-to drink for pizza, those with a passion for juice understand that a thoughtfully chosen juice can profoundly enhance the pizza dining experience. At KindleGrainHub, we've worked with culinary experts to craft a collection of juice pairings that are a perfect match for our selection of pizzas. Whether you're enjoying a meal at our eatery or savoring your pizza at home, these pairing suggestions will assist you in selecting the ideal juice for your preferred type of pizza.
Traditional Margherita: Tomato Basil Beverage or Pomegranate Mix
The basic yet delightful flavors of fresh tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil on a Margherita pizza are best accompanied by a drink that does not overwhelm these tastes. A house-made tomato basil beverage can provide just the right amount of acidity to echo the tomatoes, while supporting the mozzarella’s presence. Alternatively, a subtle pomegranate concoction can introduce lush fruitiness, enhancing the tomatoes' sweetness and echoing the basil's green notes.
Our top choice: We recommend our signature Tomato Basil Chiller or, for a hint of sweetness, our locally produced Pomegranate Blueberry fusion.
Pepperoni and Meat Lovers: Spicy Cherry or Blackcurrant
Heavy on cured meats like pepperoni, sausages, or prosciutto, such pizzas need robust, spiced beverages to match their intense tastes. A Spicy Cherry juice provides a deep fruit taste with a hint of peppery zest that holds up against the strong meats. Blackcurrant juice, known for its deep berry flavors and tangy finish, slices through the meat's richness beautifully.
Our top choice: Our patrons are particularly fond of our home-crafted Spicy Cherry Concoction or our Organic Blackcurrant Delight paired with our Meat Lovers Pizza.
Mushroom and Truffle: Beet or Berry Forest Mix
Mushrooms and truffles with their deep umami flavors pair well with juices that have earthy notes. Beet juice, with its subtle ground-like taste, is an exquisite match for mushroom and truffle flavors, while also adding just enough sweetness to counterbalance the savoriness. The Berry Forest blend complements the earthy tones with complex berry flavors that pair nicely with the pizza.
Our top choice: Our Wild Mushroom pizza goes hand in hand with our Cold-Pressed Beet Nectar or Berry Forest Medley.
Seafood Pizza: Citrus Splash or Sea Buckthorn
Sea buckthorn juice, known for its sharpness, tropical essence, and a touch of tartness, matches wonderfully with subdued seafood flavors, and a citrus fizz provides brisk, refreshing qualities that bolster the taste of the seafood.
Our top choice: Our Coastal Seafood pizza is a natural partner for our Citrus Splash or Organic Sea Buckthorn Elixir.
Vegetable Supreme: Green Cleanse or Cucumber Melon
Pizzas draped in vegetables taste best with flexible, herby juices. Green Cleanse juice syncs with the pizza's veggie flavors with ingredients like spinach, celery, and apple. Cucumber melon juice offers a delicate, refreshing taste that stands up to the veggies without overshadowing them.
Our top choice: Fresh with our Garden Delight pizza is our Green Cleanse or a cool Cucumber Melon Mixer.
Four Cheese Pizza: Nutty Almond or Bubbly Apple
The decadence of a four-cheese pizza necessitates a drink that either complements or contrasts the sumptuousness. Rich almond milk adds complementary nut notes, while a fizzy apple beverage creates contrast with its freshness and tartness, countering the savory cheese.
Our top choice: Our Four Cheese pizza is ideally paired with our Smooth Almond Milk or our Bubbly Apple Twist.
Spicy Pizza Options: Mango Lassi or Ginger Turmeric Fusion
Sweet and creamy juices like Mango Lassi bring relief to your palate when biting into a spicy slice, while Ginger Turmeric Fusion withstands heat and offers a tantalizing flavor contrast, plus wellness benefits.
Our top choice: Our Fiery Diavola pizza is the ideal match for our house Mango Lassi or invigorating Firefly Ginger Turmeric Elixir.
Dessert Pizza: Berry Blend Smoothie or Almond Chocolate
Sweet beverages are crucial companions for dessert pizzas, whether topped with fruit or a chocolate-hazelnut spread. A mixed berry smoothie enhances the sweetness of fruit toppings, while almond chocolate milk pairs superbly with chocolatey flavors.
Our top choice: Our Nutella and Strawberry Dessert Pizza is heavenly with our Triple Berry Smoothie or Luxurious Almond Chocolate Milk.
