FAQs
Can I use other types of juice instead of Ocean Spray White Cran Strawberry?
Yes, you can substitute with other fruity juices like regular cranberry, strawberry lemonade, or even a berry blend, but the flavor balance and color may change.
Is coconut milk the best milk option for this drink?
Coconut milk gives the Pink Drink its signature creamy texture and subtle tropical flavor, but you can try almond or oat milk for a different twist, keeping in mind it will alter the taste and texture slightly.
