POG juice is a tropical juice drink made from a blend of three fruit juices: passionfruit, orange, and guava. The name "POG" is an acronym derived from these three fruits. It was created in 1971 by Mary Soon, a food product consultant working for Haleakala Dairy on Maui, Hawaii
. The drink is known for its sweet, mellow flavor, which is less tart than pure orange juice due to the addition of passionfruit and guava juices. POG juice is popular in Hawaii and is often consumed as a refreshing beverage, sometimes used as a base for cocktails. It is commonly made with equal parts of passionfruit juice, orange juice, and guava juice, though the ratio can be adjusted to taste
. Additionally, the cardboard caps from the milk bottles of POG juice inspired the 1990s game called "Pogs," which became a widespread fad. The juice's mascot is called a "Poglodyte," a fuzzy yellow creature often depicted with surfboards
. In summary, POG juice is a sweet, tropical fruit juice blend from Hawaii consisting of passionfruit, orange, and guava juices, celebrated both for its flavor and cultural significance
