While carbonated drinks are often the go-to match for a slice of pizza, those passionate about juice understand that a cleverly chosen juice can take a pizza meal from good to great. At RowanMeadow, in collaboration with culinary experts, we've meticulously crafted juice combinations that are the perfect match for our diverse pizza selection. Whether you're enjoying our creations in-house or in the comfort of your own abode, these pairings will guide you to the ideal juice selection for your preferred type of pizza.
The Quintessential Margherita: Tomato Basil Juice or Pomegranate Concoction
A classic Margherita pizza, with its harmonious blend of fresh tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil, pairs best with a juice that won't overshadow its subtle flavors. A handcrafted tomato basil juice provides a complementary tangy pop which melds seamlessly with the tomato layers, whereas a pomegranate mixture imparts a light and sweet touch that brings out the flavors in both the tomatoes and basil.
Our top choice: Our in-house Tomato Basil Cooler or a Pomegranate Blueberry Juice sourced from local producers are simply divine with our Margherita pizza.
For the Meat Enthusiast: Cherry with a Spice Kick or Blackcurrant Juice
Pizzas laden with heavy meats such as pepperoni and sausage require a juice that brings both body and zest to the table. A spiced-up cherry juice offers a perfect balance of fruit-forward notes and a spicy edge that pairs brilliantly with hearty meat toppings. As an alternative, blackcurrant juice provides deep berry flavors with a tart kick that cuts through and balances the meat's richness.
Our top choice: Patrons rave about our special Spiced Cherry Elixir or our Organic Blackcurrant Supreme when paired with our carnivorous pizzas.
Mushroom and Truffle Delight: Beetroot or Mixed Forest Berry
Pizzas featuring the earthy depth of mushrooms and truffles are complemented ideally by juices that echo this character. Beetroot juice with subtle sweet and earthly notes is exquisite with such toppings, while a mixed berry juice introduces a complexity that plays well with the savory pizza profile.
Our top choice: Enjoy our Wild Mushroom pizza with an invigorating Beetroot Juice or a refreshing Wild Forest Berry Mix.
Seafood Specialty: Citrus Fusion or Sea Buckthorn Juice
For those who favor a pizza topped with sea delights such as shrimp or clams, a juice with bright and mineral characteristics stands as an ideal pairing. Citrus blends bring a zesty lift to seafood toppings, and sea buckthorn juice offers up a high-acid, tropical counterbalance with just the right amount of tartness for these light pizza flavors.
Our top choice: Combine our rich Mediterranean Seafood pizza with the zing of our Citrus Fusion or enjoy it with an Organic Sea Buckthorn Juice.
Verdant Vegetable Supreme: Green Power Juice or Cucumber Melon
Pizzas crowned with an assortment of vegetables welcome the adaptable and fresh notes of well-chosen juices. A detoxifying green juice brings layers of flavor that resonate with vegetables like bell peppers and artichokes, while cucumber melon juice provides an understated sweetness and lightness that complements without overpowering.
Our top choice: The symbiotic relationship between our Garden Fresh pizza and a glass of our Rejuvenating Green Detox or our Revitalizing Cucumber Melon Juice is unmatched.
Decadent Four Cheese: Creamy Almond or Effervescent Apple
Choosing a juice to pair with a four-cheese pizza invites either a harmonious or contrasting approach. Velvety almond milk echoes the creamy and nutty flavors within the cheese mix, whereas a fizzy apple juice with its tartness can cut through the cheese's creaminess, providing a refreshingly crisp counterbalance.
Our top choice: Our Four Cheeses pizza goes excellently with a Vanilla Almond Juice or a bubbly Apple Cider.
For Fiery Pizzas: Mango Lassi or Ginger Turmeric
Spicy pizza options with ingredients like hot peppers or piquant sauces find their match in cooling or aromatic juices. A creamy mango lassi offers respite from the heat, with its soothing texture offering relief between spicy mouthfuls, while a ginger turmeric juice presents a feisty yet complimentary flavor profile and the added benefit of anti-inflammatory properties.
Our top choice: Quench the spice of our Chili Blaze pizza with our velvety Homemade Mango Lassi or our invigorating Ginger Turmeric Infusion.
Sweet Delight Dessert Pizza: Berry Fusion Smoothie or Chocolate Almond Bliss
For the dessert pizza aficionado, especially one involving sweet spreads like Nutella, a fruity or chocolaty juice is the order of the day. Berry smoothies play nicely with the fruit toppings typical of dessert pizzas, and chocolate almond milk is simply divine when paired with chocolatey pizza options. The secret is ensuring the drink's sweetness matches or surpasses that of the dessert pizza.
Our top choice: Savor our Berry Nutella pizza with a matching Triple Berry Smoothie or a luscious Dark Chocolate Almond Juice.
