"Lakini's Juice" is a song by alternative rock group Live, which was released as the first single from their 1997 album, Secret Samadhi.

The song was not released as a single in the United States, but it reached #35 on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay music chart, #1 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart and #2 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks charts.[1] The song reached #29 on the UK Singles Chart, the band's highest UK Singles Chart position.[2]

The song opens with some abrasive staccato guitar and features an orchestra towards the end. There is a constant dissonance running throughout the track. The previously unreleased B-side track "Supernatural" is a live recording, made at "The Academy" in New York City on November 19, 1994. The music video for the song was directed by Gavin Bowden.[3]
