Recipe Tips

Feijoa nectar is available online from New Zealand specialty stores.
If you can't find feijoa, guava nectar with extra lime juice is the closest substitute.
Leave the kiwi seeds in for a fun texture, or strain them out for a smoother drink.

Make It Your Own

For a crowd: Batch the main flavor base by country, keep carbonation separate, and label pitchers so guests can sample more than one team drink.

Easy swaps: Use a fruit or tea in the same color family when a regional ingredient is unavailable. Use lemon or lime based on what best fits the drink's flavor direction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I serve several team drinks at one party?

Yes. Use smaller glasses or tasting portions so guests can try multiple countries.

How do I make colors more vivid?

Use clear ice, transparent glassware, and garnish that reinforces the team's palette.
