Scale
The Flavor Base
- 2 1/2 tsp freeze-dried strawberry powder (intense berry flavor & color)
- 1 tsp freeze-dried acai powder (subtle tartness & antioxidants)
- 3/4 tsp green coffee bean extract powder (omit for caffeine-free)
- 2 tsp passion fruit puree (add more to taste)
The Liquid Foundation
- 2 1/2 cups white grape juice (sweet, fruity backbone)
- 3 cups cold water (reserve 2 Tbsp to make slurry)
For Serving
- ice & strawberry slices (fresh, frozen, or freeze-dried; as needed)
Instructions
- Make the slurry: In a small bowl, whisk strawberry powder, acai powder, and green coffee extract with 2 Tbsp cold water using a milk frother or mini whisk until perfectly smooth.
- Combine liquids: Scrape the slurry into a large pitcher. Stir in remaining cold water and white grape juice until fully mixed.
- Add tropical tang: Stir in passion fruit puree. Taste and adjust with an extra 1/4 tsp at a time for more tang if desired.
- Chill, shake & serve: Refrigerate. Before pouring, stir or gently shake to redistribute. Serve over ice and garnish with strawberry slices.
Notes
Cost-saver: A 48-oz pitcher equals about three Grandes and can cut per-serving cost by 65%+ compared to store-bought. Storage: Keep concentrate chilled up to 4 days; shake before serving. Make it lighter: Swap part of the juice with more water or sparkling water.
