In case you’re new here, you should know two things about me – I come from a Cuban family, I live in Miami, and I love guava. Ha! I have a slew of recipes made with guava and now we’re adding one more to the list.

After weeks of hearing about it, I finally tried the new Starbucks Guava Passionfruit Drink and it was a tropical paradise in my mouth!

Think refreshingly sweet, tart, and creamy. It kind of reminded me of my sweet mimosa cocktail with guava nectar and my guava nectar margarita recipe. They’re perfect for a hot day and SO GOOD!

I decided I had to try to recreate it for you and honestly it was pretty damn close to the real thing.

What is this Guava Passionfruit Drink?

In case you’ve never heard of this particular pink Starbucks drink, it’s called Iced Guava Passionfruit Drink.

It’s an iced drink made with the creamy, sweet flavors of guava nectar and coconut milk with passionfruit juice and subtle notes of pineapple and ginger.

To me, I taste guava juice more than anything else. Of course, right? Ha!

Either way, it’s a delicious, caffeine-free, dairy-free, vegan drink that is super easy to make at home.

Here’s a DIY Starbucks guava passionfruit drink recipe!

Ingredients You’ll Need

• Pineapple juice, granulated sugar, fresh ginger. This is what you need for the pineapple-ginger simple syrup. You only need 2 tablespoons of grated fresh ginger. Just grab a 1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peel it, and grate it using a microplane grater.

• Unsweetened coconut milk. Don’t use the canned version for this recipe.

• Guava nectar. This is the sweet and creamy guava nectar I use.

• Passionfruit juice. You can use a homemade version or buy store-bought passionfruit juice.

• Ice.

How To Make Iced Guava Passionfruit Drink

• Make the pineapple-ginger syrup. In a saucepan, heat pineapple juice, sugar, and grated fresh ginger over medium heat until the sugar has completely dissolved, about 5 minutes. Strain the syrup through a sieve to remove any pieces of ginger. Set aside to cool.

• Combine all the ingredients. In a large pitcher, add the coconut milk, guava nectar, passionfruit juice, and a few tablespoons of the pineapple-ginger syrup to taste. Stir to combine.

• Serve over ice in tall glasses. Enjoy!
