The Bianconeri went ahead as early as the ninth minute when Arturo Vidal shot home after picking up a pass from Sebastian Giovinco.
Fabio Quagliarella made it 2-0 to Juve in the 22nd minute after being set up by Mauricio Isla.
Pescara were unlucky not to score in the 24th minute when Juan Quintero's free kick rattled the post, but moments later Emmanuel Cascione headed home to halve the deficit.
However, that goal did not spark the comeback that the hosts would have hoped for, as Juve only increased their domination over the match.
Kwadwo Asamoah made it 3-1 to Antonio Conte's side with a low overhead kick from close range, and Giovinco volleyed home on 37 minutes.
Quagliarella netted Juventus's fifth goal of the evening on the stroke of half-time with another well-placed shot from just inside the Pescara penalty box.
The Italian striker completed his hat-trick in the early minutes of the second half with an overhead kick.
