Traditionally, pizza has been accompanied by soda, but those who have a penchant for juices understand that the right juice pairing can take the enjoyment of pizza to the next level. At MirrorPathTrail, we've cooperated with local connoisseurs to curate juice combinations that are the perfect complement to our selection. No matter if you're savoring our pizzas on-site or at your place, this guide will assist in selecting the perfect juice to go along with your preferred pizza type.
Traditional Margherita: Tomato Basil Beverage or Pomegranate Fusion
A classic Margherita pizza, with its light flavors of fresh tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil, pairs well with a beverage that won't dominate these flavors. A self-made tomato basil drink provides a lively tartness that aligns with the tomatoes and possesses enough body to counterbalance the cheese. On the other hand, a delicate pomegranate fusion introduces refined red fruit notes that amplify the tomato's sweetness and pair well with the herbal basil.
Our select suggestion: We favor combining our Margherita with our signature Tomato Basil Chiller or, if you have a sweet tooth, a locally procured Pomegranate Blueberry concoction.
Pepperoni Feast: Spicy Cherry or Blackcurrant Refreshment
Top-heavy pizzas with cured meats like pepperoni or sausage require beverages with sufficient robustness and a bit of zest to contend with the strong tastes. A Spicy Cherry beverage, with its sweet fruitiness and zesty endnote, meets the challenge of the meats' saltiness and spiciness. Alternatively, a ripe blackcurrant drink offers deep, dark fruit flavors with a tart edge that slices through the meat's sumptuousness.
Our select suggestion: Customers show a particular preference for our in-house Spiced Cherry Potion or the Organic Blackcurrant Delight with our meat-loaded pizzas.
Forest Mushroom and Truffle: Beet Infusion or Berry Forest Mixture
For pizzas adorned with earthy mushrooms and truffle flavors, juices that bring forth similar undertones are recommended. Beet beverage delivers fine earthy scents that synergize nicely with mushroom flavors, its innate sweetness neutralizing the heaviness. The berry forest blend is also a fitting choice, producing complex berry attributes that reflect the pie’s sylvan essence.
Our select suggestion: Pair our Wild Mushroom pizza with a Beetroot Extract or Berry Forest Elixir.
Ocean Harvest Pizza: Zesty Citrus Fusion or Sea Buckthorn Elixir
For pizzas with marine offerings such as shrimp or clams, brisk juices with stone-like notes are the ideal match. A citrus medley brings a refreshing taste that elevates the seafood's flavor, while a Sea Buckthorn beverage is another exceptional match with its bright acidity, exotic flair, and light tartness that favor the seafood without masking it.
Our select suggestion: Our pizza featuring ocean delights works magnificently with a Citrus Wave or the Organic Sea Buckthorn Syrup.
Garden Veggie Delight: Herbal Elixir or Cucumber Melon Quencher
Pizzas with an array of veggies benefit from versatile, herb-like juices. An herbal elixir brimming with ingredients like spinach, celery, and apple reciprocates and enhances the flavors of offerings like bell peppers and artichokes. A cucumber melon beverage provides a gentle crispness and is not overpowering, complementing the different textures of the veggies.
Our select suggestion: Our Garden Veggie pizza aligns perfectly with our Rejuvenating Green Elixir or the Cool Cucumber Melon Drink.
Quartet of Cheese Pizza: Almond Smoothie or Sparkling Apple Elixir
A pizza brimming with a variety of cheeses might call for a drink that employs either a complementary or contrasting profile. An almond-based smoothie with smooth vanilla nuances echoes the cheese’s nuttiness, while a sparkling apple beverage cuts through the luxuriance with its fizz and tanginess, providing a sweet alternative.
Our select suggestion: Our Quattro Formaggi or “Four Cheese Pizza” is a perfect match with a Creamy Almond Beverage or a Bubbling Apple Tonic.
Fiery Pizza Varieties: Cooling Mango Lassi or Zesty Ginger Turmeric Infusion
Pizzas laced with hot components like chili peppers require juices that can provide a soothing effect. A Mango Lassi with its creamy nature mellows the palate, while a Ginger Turmeric drink boldly complements the spice with its lively flavor profile and health-boosting qualities.
Our select suggestion: Our Spicy Diavola pie finds its ideal companion in our Handcrafted Mango Lassi or the invigorating Ginger Turmeric Stimulant.
Sweet Pizza Dessert: Mixed Berry Smoothie or Chocolate Almond Beverage
Those daring to sample our dessert pizzas, such as fruit and Nutella varieties, will find that sweet beverages are crucial. A blend of mixed berries works wonders with fruit-adorned dessert pizzas, while a chocolate almond drink is a heavenly match with chocolate-hazelnut combinations. The crucial factor is making sure the drink has a comparable sweetness level to the dessert.
Our select suggestion: Our Nutella and Strawberry Dessert Pizza is divinely paired with a Berry Fusion Smoothie or a Rich Chocolate Almond Drink.
