Square Enix shared a recipe for the Final Fantasy VII inspired Mako’s Eye drink. The company had previously featured this drink at a temporary-themed cafe in 2022. But with this recipe, people residing anywhere worldwide will be able to replicate the drink if they have the specified ingredients.
The base drink consists of the following ingredients:
- Blue Hawaii Syrup – 20cc
- Ice – adequate amount
- Carbonated Water – 140cc
The recipe also includes a separate syrup made by mixing 10cc of Pineapple Syrup with 0.1g of Yellow Food Coloring. When people pour this syrup into the drink, it will glow similarly to the Mako reflected on characters’ pupils in Final Fantasy VII entries. An optional pineapple cut on the glass can complete the drink’s presentation.
The drink recipe video is also available to watch on the Japanese official X account for the Final Fantasy VII Remake series:
Mako’s Eye was one of the exclusive drinks available at the Final Fantasy 25th Anniversary Cafe. Square Enix ran the temporary theme at two of its cafes in Tokyo from June 2022 to July 2022. The drink was available to order for both dine-in and take-out at 880 yen.
People can check the Mako glow on characters’ pupils in Final Fantasy VII works with highly detailed CG processing, such as the Advent Children film and the Final Fantasy VII Remake game series. The first remake entry is immediately available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC. The second game Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will appear first on PlayStation 5 on February 29, 2024.
