Traditionally, soda has been pizza’s go-to beverage, but juice enthusiasts know the right pairing can lift the dining experience. At ParapetAccessPoint, we’ve partnered with local experts to craft juice suggestions that complement our menu precisely. Whether you’re eating in our restaurant or grabbing takeaway, these ideas will help you discover the ideal juice for your favorite pizza style.
Classic Margherita: Tomato Basil Juice or Pomegranate Blend
The Margherita’s simple combination of tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil calls for a juice that won’t overwhelm the delicate flavors. A homemade tomato basil juice introduces bright acidity that aligns with the tomatoes while providing enough structure to support the cheese. Alternatively, a light pomegranate blend introduces red fruit notes that enhance the tomatoes’ sweetness and complement the basil’s freshness.
Our specific recommendation: We enjoy pairing Margherita with our signature Tomato Basil Cooler or, for something sweeter, a locally-sourced Pomegranate Blueberry blend.
Pepperoni and Meat Lovers: Spiced Cherry or Blackcurrant
Pizzas loaded with cured meats benefit from juices with body and spice to match bold flavors. Spiced cherry juice, with its jammy fruit character and peppery finish, pairs nicely with the saltiness and heat of meat toppings. As an alternative, try blackcurrant juice, which offers rustic dark fruit notes and a tart finish that cuts through the meats’ richness.
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 notes from mushrooms and truffles call for juices with similar character. Beetroot juice provides gentle earthy aromas that pair well with fungi flavors. Its natural sweetness helps balance the richness. A forest berry blend also works well, developing complex berry notes that reflect the earthiness of the pizza.
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 brings refreshing qualities that enhance seafood flavors and brighten the overall experience. Sea buckthorn juice is another strong choice, with high acidity, tropical character, and a subtle tartness 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 offers subtle freshness and light body that stands up to various vegetable textures without overpowering them.
Our specific recommendation: Our Garden Harvest pizza finds perfect harmony with Daily Green Detox or Chilled Cucumber Melon Refresh.
Four Cheese Pizza: Creamy Almond or Sparkling Apple
The richness of a four-cheese pizza can be addressed in two ways. A creamy almond milk adds complementary nutty notes that echo the cheese blend. For contrast, try sparkling apple juice—its effervescence and acidity cut through the richness 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 flakes, spicy sausage, or hot honey, creamy or bold juices offer welcome relief. Mango lassi cools the palate with its creamy texture between bites. Ginger turmeric juice also stands up to heat while delivering an intriguing flavor contrast and anti-inflammatory 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 Nutella and fruit dessert pizzas pair with sweet juices. Mixed berry smoothies complement fruit-topped desserts, while chocolate almond milk makes a delicious match with chocolate-hazelnut variants. The key is ensuring the drink is as sweet as the dessert.
Our specific recommendation: Our Nutella and Strawberry Dessert Pizza pairs perfectly with Triple Berry Blast or Dark Chocolate Almond Milk.
Tips for Pizza and Juice Pairing

- High-acid juices generally pair well with tomato-based pizzas due to tomatoes’ natural acidity
- Sparkling juices are versatile choices that work with almost any pizza
- Don’t be afraid to experiment—unexpected pairings can create the most memorable moments
