Where to Find the Best Fruit-Based Drinks in Egypt – A SceneEats Guide

Because sometimes you want sweetness that isn’t three spoonfuls of condensed milk or a one-way ticket to a sugar coma.

Fruit in drink form is nature’s way of saying you deserve joy without the jaw work. It’s sweet, it’s refreshing, and it lets you pass off indulgence as wellness - yes, even if there’s a triple-cheese pizza in front of you. Sometimes, you just want flavour and sweetness that isn’t courtesy of the condensed milk in your iced Spanish latte, or the kind of sugar rush that has you spiralling by 4 PM.

This summer, Cairo’s cafés have gone full technicolour - lining counters with jewel-toned smoothies, citrus-spiked teas, and matcha the shade of a new houseplant. These aren’t just drinks; they’re mood boards in liquid form, built for sipping, shooting, and surviving the city heat. Think tangy peach tea that cuts through the afternoon slump, coconut blends that channel the Red Sea, blueberry matcha that pairs meditative calm with main-character energy. Here’s where to find the city’s best fruit-flavoured drinks.

1980 | Peach Offender

Branches all over Cairo
The peach is soft, sweet, and innocent… until 1980 turns it into a drink that makes you question why you ever wasted time on boring smoothies.

Smoothie Paradise | Teen Shoki Smoothie

Branches all over Cairo
If Egyptian summer had a mascot, it would be teen shoki. Smoothie Paradise basically bottled July and put it in a cup.

Cloud Nine | Blueberry Matcha

Don Hub & Move Club & Smart Village, Sheikh Zayed 
Matcha is the overachiever, blueberry is the chill one, and together they’re the “unlikely duo” rom-com plot twist your taste buds didn’t see coming.

Saints | Mango Coconut Smoothie

Branches all over Cairo
Tastes like quitting your job and moving to an island, except you’re still stuck in Cairo traffic after.

Cuppa | Green Apple Fruit Tea

Golf Central Mall, Sheikh Zayed & Mivida, New Cairo Cuppa’s green apple fruit tea is crisp, refreshing, and just sour enough to feel like the drink is judging your life choices.

30 North | Mango Matcha

Branches all over Cairo
For people who drink matcha purely for the vibe, but need mango to swoop in and save them from the actual taste.

Lazy Lads | Cocomelon Smoothie

District 5, New Cairo
Because sometimes you can’t decide whether coconut or watermelon is the taste of summer, so you find a drink that combines them both together.

Oh Coffee | Strawberry Matcha

29 St. 232, Maadi
The kind of drink that says, “Yes, I do yoga,” even if the last time you stretched was in 2019.
