Tahiti Drink Explained
Tahiti Drink is an alcoholic mixed-drink cocktail that has been made by Manutea Tahiti S.A.[1] [2] since 1984. It is manufactured on the island of Moorea and is sold in distinctively colored cartons.[3] The drink, used as both a cocktail and a mixer, is a combination of pineapple, passion fruit and orange juices, to which vanilla and cane spirit are added.[4] [5] [6] [7]
Manutea Tahiti is owned by Jus de Fruits de Moorea S.A.,[8] [9] the largest juice and exotic fruit liquor manufacturer in the South Pacific.[10]
