Fiji Beverage Base
Finish & Garnish
Method
Fiji Beverage Base
Combine liquids
In a clean measuring pitcher or shaker, pour 400 ml filtered still water, 50 ml unsweetened coconut water, 30 ml pineapple juice and 10 ml freshly squeezed lime juice.
Sweeten
Add 10 ml simple syrup (adjust up to 15 ml if you prefer sweeter). Stir or gently roll the pitcher to combine—do not vigorously shake (want clarity and a smooth texture).
Taste and adjust
Taste the mix and adjust balance: add another 5–10 ml simple syrup if too tart, or 5–10 ml lime juice if it needs brightness. If coconut presence is weak, increase coconut water by 10 ml.
Finish & Garnish
Prepare glass
Fill a 500 ml serving glass (or similar) about three-quarters full with cracked ice (approximately 0.5 cups).
Pour
Gently pour the prepared Fiji beverage base over the ice, aiming to fill the glass to about 500 ml total volume. Pour slowly to preserve gentle layering of flavors.
Garnish and serve
Thread a pineapple wedge and lime wheel on the rim or place them on top of the ice. Add a mini edible orchid or a mint sprig if using. Serve immediately with a straw.
