Gone are the days when soda was the go-to drink for pizza meals. Juice connoisseurs understand that the right fruit or vegetable juice can enhance one's pizza dining experience. At VistaPineDune, in collaboration with local connoisseurs, we have tailored a list of juice recommendations that ideally suit our pizza menu. Enjoy these pairings in our eatery or in the comfort of your home to discover the ideal juice for your preferred pizza variant.

Traditional Margherita: Tomato Basil Juice or Pomegranate Fusion

Given the Margherita's simple blend of fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil, a juice that won't overshadow these subtle tastes is ideal. Home-prepared tomato basil juice can provide a zesty kick aligning with the tomato whilst being robust enough for the cheese. Conversely, a light pomegranate mix offers a sophisticated berry essence that amplifies the tomatoes' sweetness and meshes well with the aromatic basil.

Our top picks: We suggest accompanying our Margherita with our exclusive Tomato Basil Cooler or, if you prefer a sweeter touch, our Pomegranate Blueberry mix sourced from local producers.

Meaty Selections like Pepperoni: Spicy Cherry or Blackcurrant

Pizzas that come loaded with meats such as pepperoni and sausage require juices robust and spiced to match their pronounced flavors. A Spicy cherry juice adds a fruity and spicy character that pairs well with the meats' saltiness and zest. As an alternative, blackcurrant juice provides deep rustic berry flavor profiles with a tart aftertaste that offsets the richness of the meats.

Our top picks: Patrons particularly rave about our in-house Spiced Cherry Elixir or Organic Blackcurrant Supreme when enjoying our Meat Feast pizza.

Fungi and Truffle Varieties: Beetroot or Berries of the Forest

Mushrooms and truffles with their rich umami qualities need juices that can provide a grounding taste. Beetroot juice has subtle earthiness which pairs seamlessly with mushrooms, and its natural sweetness counters the savoriness. A forest berry blend works wonders as well, by introducing complex berry notes that reflect the earthy character of the pizza.

Our top picks: Pair our Wild Mushroom pizza with a glass of Cold-Pressed Beetroot Juice or a Wild Forest Berry Medley.

Seafood Pizzas: Citrus Blend or Sea Buckthorn Elixir

Pizzas adorned with seafood like prawns and clams benefit from crisp juices imbued with mineral nuances. A citrus blend rejuvenates the palate, complementing the seafood, and its liveliness lightens the dining experience. Sea buckthorn juice is also a stellar option, brandishing high acidity, a breezy tropical note, and just enough sharpness without overshadowing the delicate seafood.

Our top picks: Our Mediterranean Seafood pizza goes hand-in-hand with our Citrus Splash or Organic Sea Buckthorn Nectar.

Veggie Supreme: Green Detox or Cucumber Melon

Pizzas topped with a variety of vegetables sync well with adaptable, herb-like juices. A green detox juice composed of spinach, celery, and apple harmonizes with and accentuates the flavors of bell peppers, artichokes, and more. On the other hand, Cucumber melon juice provides a delicate freshness and maintains a consistency that complements without overwhelming the various vegetable textures.

Our top picks: Our Garden Harvest pizza is perfectly complemented by the Daily Green Detox or a Chilled Cucumber Melon Refresher.

Quartet of Cheeses: Creamy Almond or Fizzy Apple

The decadence of a four-cheese pizza requires either a concordant or divergent drink. Creamy almond milk offers a nutty flavor that aligns with the cheesy taste profile. For a contrast, a fizzy apple juice provides a tingly acidity that slices through the cheese’s creaminess, and its sweet fruitiness acts as an appealing contrast to the savory cheeses.

Our top picks: Our Quattro Formaggi is superbly matched with Vanilla Almond Milk or a Sparkling Apple Crisp.

For the Spice Aficionados: Mango Lassi or Ginger Turmeric

Pizzas featuring elements like chili flakes and spicy sausage benefit from creamy or zestful juices. A mango lassi cools the tongue with its creaminess softening each bite. Ginger turmeric juice stands up to the spice while providing an interesting flavor counterbalance and holistic health benefits.

Our top picks: Our Spicy Diavola pizza is well-suited to a Homemade Mango Lassi or the invigorating Firefly Ginger Turmeric Boost.

Sweet Pizzas: Berry Smoothie or Chocolate Almond

For the daring souls sampling our Nutella and fruit dessert pizzas, indulgent juices are key. Berry smoothies pair nicely with fruit toppings, while chocolate almond milk makes an exquisite partner for chocolate-hazelnut spreads. Importantly, the beverage should be as sweet as or sweeter than the dessert itself.

Our top picks: Divine pairing for our Nutella and Strawberry Dessert Pizza includes a Triple Berry Blast or a Rich Chocolate Almond Milk.

Guidance on Pizza and Juice Pairing

  • Focus on the primary flavor of the pizza rather than just the crust or sauce variety
  • Juices with higher acidity typically pair well with tomato-based pizzas due to the inherent acidity of tomatoes
  • Fizzy juices serve as flexible options and can accommodate almost any pizza
  • Embrace experimentation, as the most unusual combinations can offer unforgettable flavor experiences

At VistaPineDune, we've curated a collection of juices that includes many of these recommended pairings. Our staff is ever willing to recommend an optimal juice for your pizza choice. We also offer juice flights that let you sample a trio of different juices with your meal.
