Pink Drink Recipe Notes
- Tea: I used Tazo brand ready to drink hibiscus tea for this mocktail recipe. Instead of ready to drink tea, you can also steep your own. Combine 1 tea bag and ½ cup of very hot water and set it aside to steep for 15 minutes. Let it cool to room temperature before continuing with the recipe.
- Grape Juice: White grape juice adds welcome sweetness and fruit flavor to this drink. White cranberry juice is also a delicious choice!
- Coconut Milk: Before adding, stir the coconut milk really well. I used full-fat unsweetened coconut milk in this recipe.
- Strawberries: While optional, fresh strawberries are a beautiful garnish!
For best taste and texture, fresh strawberries are best in this drink.
Use your favorite kind of white grape juice for this Pink Drink recipe.
For a truly copycat Starbucks Pink Drink, coconut is a must. It adds a wonderful creaminess and unique flavor. Instead of coconut milk, use your favorite dairy or non-dairy milk.
I recommend the ready to drink Tazo brand hibiscus tea.
Absolutely! Simply double the ingredients, follow the recipe steps as written, and divide it into 2 glasses.
Easy to make and even easier to sip, you’ll love this homemade Pink Drink!
Tips!
- Before you take that first sip, be sure to give the coconut milk a good stir in the glass.
- Instead of white grape juice, white cranberry juice is a delicious alternative.
- Try adding fresh raspberries or blackberries in place of strawberries.
When you are craving a sweet, refreshing drink, this flavorful Pink Drink is a must!

HI,
I have a question. Do I need to use grape juice? What else can I use?
Thanks!
I think white grape juice gives it the best, most authentic flavor, but you could try apple juice instead!
Tried multiple variations using 3 different recipes on my 12 year old who is crazy about pinkity drinks. Had to use Passion Tazo tea (which has hibiscus, passion fruit and orange) because I didn’t have hibiscus tea, plus added some sugar, and it was her absolute favorite even though not exactly like the Starbucks version It was the perfect pink color too! Thank you so very much for an easy recipe that turned out so well!!
Aw, I’m so glad she liked it!
I made enough to fill a gallon pitcher and added extra grape juice and more coconut milk and a lil sugar to help sweeten it and its quite nice!
Love the suggestions!
I tried to make it at home and mine came out purple not pink but my daughter loves it anyway. It’s just turns oddly purple and I brew fresh tea. Thank you for sharing
Purple works too!
Tastes nothing like a Starbucks pink drink. Save your money and order a real one from Starbucks.
I am sorry this didn’t work out for you, Gloria.
You are absolutely right
This is more the purple drink they have then the pink drink
Hibiscus will curdle dairy because of its acidity!
Coconut milk is non- dairy!
Can’t wait to make for my granddaughter she loves this at Starbucks. Thank you and love the recipes!
Enjoy!!
