Reviewed ingredient substitutions

Pineapple Juice3.0 oz

Orange JuiceWorks, but changes the drink

How much to use: Use the same amount first; add a little sweetener only if the drink tastes thin.
What changes: Orange juice can replace pineapple juice when a less tropical drink is acceptable.

Passion Fruit JuiceWorks, but changes the drink

How much to use: Use slightly less at first and add sweetener only if needed.
What changes: Passion fruit juice can replace pineapple juice when a sharper tropical flavor is welcome.

Simple Syrup0.5 oz

SugarWorks, with a noticeable change

How much to use: Dissolve well before serving or muddle/shake hard; start with about 1 teaspoon sugar per 1/4 oz syrup.
What changes: Sugar can replace simple syrup if it fully dissolves, but it adds less water.

Agave SyrupWorks, but changes the drink

How much to use: Use slightly less at first, then adjust to taste.
What changes: Agave syrup can replace simple syrup, especially in tequila or mezcal drinks, but it adds an earthy agave note.

Demerara SyrupWorks, but changes the drink

How much to use: Use the same amount, but avoid in very delicate drinks unless you want the darker flavor.
What changes: Demerara syrup can replace simple syrup when a richer, darker sugar note is welcome.

Honey SyrupWorks, but changes the drink

How much to use: Use slightly less at first; honey syrup can dominate delicate drinks.
What changes: Honey syrup can replace simple syrup when a richer, floral sweetness is acceptable.

Maple SyrupNot a neutral swap

How much to use: Use less at first and avoid in delicate citrus or clear drinks unless you want maple flavor.
What changes: Maple syrup can replace simple syrup in darker or whiskey-style drinks, but it is not a neutral swap.
