While traditional carbonated beverages have been pizza's typical drink sidekick, those who love juice know that a good juice blend can lift the pizza experience even higher. At MutedSphere, in collaboration with local connoisseurs, we've crafted suggestions for juice combinations that flawlessly enhance our menu. Whether you're enjoying a restaurant meal or a takeaway at home, these tips will help guide you to the ideal juice option for whichever style of pizza you prefer.
Timeless Margherita: Tomato Basil Blend or Pomegranate Mix
The classic Margherita pizza, adorned with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil, demands a juice that doesn't overshadow its mild flavors. A handcrafted tomato basil juice brings a lively acidity that resonates with the tomatoes and is robust enough to match the cheese. A pomegranate mixture, lighter in body, introduces refined red fruit notes that sweeten the tomatoes' flavor and pair well with the basil aroma.
Our top pick: Our Margherita goes well with either the house specialty Tomato Basil Cooler or, if you want something sweeter, a regionally-sourced Pomegranate Blueberry mix.
Pepperoni and Meat Lover‘s Selection: Spicy Cherry or Blackcurrant
For pizza heaped with cured meats like pepperoni or sausage, juices with sufficient depth and a hint of spice are necessary to balance the strong flavors. A Spicy Cherry Juice, with its rich fruit taste and a kick of pepper, pairs perfectly with the savory and spicy toppings. Alternatively, Blackcurrant Juice provides deep, rustic fruit tones and a tart finish that perfectly cuts through the meats' richness.
Our top pick: Patrons especially favor our in-house Spiced Cherry Elixir or Organic Blackcurrant Supreme with our protein-rich Meat Feast pizza.
Mushroom and Truffle: Beetroot or Forest Berry
Pizzas with mushrooms and truffles, rich in earthy umami, call for juices that echo those flavors. The subtle earthiness of Beetroot Juice pairs exquisitely with mushroom and truffle, with its natural sweetness providing balance. Meanwhile, a Forest Berry Mixture can be a wonderful addition with its dense berry tones that match the earthy taste of the pizza.
Our top pick: Our Wild Mushroom pizza with Cold-Pressed Beetroot Juice or Wild Forest Berry Medley is a match for those who relish earthy flavors.
Seafood Pizza: Citrus Fusion or Sea Buckthorn
Pizzas topped with seafood like shrimp or clams are best accompanied by crisp, mineral-accented juices. A Citrus Fusion awakens the palette with refreshing zestiness that complements seafood, while Sea Buckthorn Juice provides tangy acidity, tropical flair, and a hint of tartness without overshadowing the delicate seafood flavor.
Our top pick: Our Mediterranean Seafood pizza beautifully blends with either our Citrus Fusion or Organic Sea Buckthorn Nectar.
Vegetarian Supreme: Green Cleanse or Cucumber Melon
Veggie pizzas, with a variety of flavors, harmonize with versatile, herby juices. A Green Cleanse juice, crafted from spinach, celery, and apple, echoes and boosts the taste of peppers, artichokes, and other vegetables. On the other hand, a Cucumber Melon beverage provides cool understatement and lightness that stands up to an assortment of vegetable tastes without being overpowering.
Our top pick: Our Garden Harvest pizza pairs immaculately with either the Daily Green Cleanse or Chilled Cucumber Melon Refresher.
Quatro Formaggi: Smooth Almond or Fizzy Apple
A rich Four Cheese pizza requires a drink that can either complement or contrast its flavors. An Almond Milk blend delivers nutty undertones that resonate with the savory cheeses. Conversely, a Sparkling Apple Juice clears the palate with its bubbles and acidity, providing a delightful fruit note against the savory cheese mixture.
Our top pick: Our Quattro Formaggi marries wonderfully with the taste of Vanilla Almond Milk or Sparkling Apple Crisp.
Spice-Infused Pizzas: Mango Lassi or Ginger Turmeric
Pizzas with a hint of heat, such as those with chili flakes or spicy toppings, benefit from creamy or gently zesty juices. A Mango Lassi calms the tongue while the smooth texture comforts after each spicy mouthful. Ginger Turmeric Juice stands up well to strong flavors and offers a fascinating taste contrast along with health-giving properties.
Our top pick: Spice lovers will find solace in our Homemade Mango Lassi or Firefly Ginger Turmeric Boost, especially when served with our Spicy Diavola pizza.
Sweet Pizza Creations: Berry Smoothie or Choco Almond
For the culinary explorers venturing into sweet pizzas like those with Nutella and fruit, flavorful juices are key. Berry Smoothies complement fruit-topped versions by enhancing the flavors, while a Chocolate Almond beverage provides a luxurious complement to chocolate and hazelnut combinations. The sweetness of the drink should match or exceed that of the pizza to balance the flavors harmoniously.
Our top pick: Our Nutella and Strawberry Dessert Pizza is heavenly when enjoyed with either the Triple Berry Blast or Dark Chocolate Almond Milk.
Pizza and Juice Combination Advice
- Consider focusing on the most prominent flavor on the pizza, rather than just the type of crust or sauce.
- Acidic juices are generally successful choices for tomato-based pizzas because of the natural acidity found in tomatoes.
- Fizzy juices are flexible options that typically accommodate a wide range of pizza choices.
- Don't hesitate to try new combinations—unexpected pairings can result in the most delightful food experiences.
At MutedSphere, our extended juice selections now include many of these recommended combinations. Our team is always prepared to recommend the ideal juice to accompany your pizza. We also offer sampling opportunities, allowing you to taste a selection of three distinct juices with your meal.
It's worth noting that while these guidelines are meant to guide you towards perfect pairings, your personal taste is paramount. The finest juice to couple with your pizza is, without a doubt, one that you find most enjoyable.
