Frequent Asked Questions – Nèkter and Vegan Drinks
Before I continue let’s answer a few niggling questions about vegan drinks at Nèkter.
Is Nèkter Protein Powder Vegan?
The vanilla protein powder used in smoothies at Nèkter is whey powder. Whey is derived from milk and so is not vegan. Nèkter does however have a plant-based protein alternative. Depending on the location, Nèkter Juice Bar stores have either vanilla pea or hemp protein as a vegan protein alternative.
Also, the sweetener used at Nèkter is agave syrup. This is great to know as agave syrup is vegan (as opposed to honey or bone char processed cane sugar which is not vegan).
10 Best Vegan Drinks at Nèkter
In this section, I will share 10 of the best vegan drinks and smoothies available from Nèkter Juice Bar.
1. Pineapple Matcha
*Substitute vanilla whey protein for plant-based protein*
What’s not to love about the pineapple matcha smoothie at Nèkter Juice Bar? After all, it combines two of the best drinks – pineapple juice and matcha. It also contains house-made cashew milk and is sweetened with agave nectar.
Just make sure to substitute the vanilla protein for a plant-based protein to ensure your delicious Nèkter Pineapple Matcha drink is vegan.
2. Cold Brew
*Substitute vanilla whey protein for plant-based protein*
If you are visiting Nèkter Juice Bar looking for a delicious vegan smoothie that also provides some caffeine, then the cold brew smoothie (with vegan protein instead of whey protein) is the smoothie for you. Made with cold brew, house-made cashew milk, banana, vanilla protein, and agave nectar.
3. PB Mocha
*Substitute vanilla whey protein for plant-based protein*
If that peanut butter, chocolate & coffee combo has you drooling at the mouth (and let’s face it why wouldn’t it) then definitely order a PB mocha smoothie (with vegan protein) next time you are at Nèkter Juice Bar.
The PB mocha is made of peanut butter, cold brew, house-made cashew milk, vanilla protein, banana, cocoa nibs, and agave nectar. Just wow.
4. Health Nut
*Substitute vanilla whey protein for plant-based protein*
The three vegan Nèkter smoothies on this list so far have all contained caffeine. But how about if you are visiting Nèkter Juice Bar and don’t want any caffeine – you just want a super healthy un-caffeinated smoothie? In this situation, you will want to order the Health Nut smoothie.
Made from peanut butter, banana, dates, house-made cashew milk, vanilla protein, and agave nectar. If peanut butter isn’t your thing, you can even substitute peanut butter for almond butter at a $1 surcharge.
5. Popeye’s Acai
If you love acai but aren’t in the mood for an acai bowl, then perhaps try Nekter’s Popeye Acai smoothie.
This smoothie is vegan as-is (no substitutions needed). The ingredients are acaí, banana, blueberry, spinach, house-made cashew milk, and agave nectar.
6. Tropical Cooler
The final smoothie on this list is the Tropical Cooler. If you fancy a coconutty tropical vegan smoothie from Nèkter Juice Bar, then the Tropical Cooler is the one.
Made from spinach, kale, pineapple, banana, coconut flakes, and coconut water. This smoothie is vegan as is.
7. The Greenie
How about if you are visiting Nèkter Juice Bar and wanted fresh vegan juice rather than a smoothie? Well, you can’t go wrong with green juice right?
The Greenie juice at Nèkter is made from kale, spinach, parsley, celery, cucumber, lemon, and red apple. This green goodness juice is vegan as-is.
8. Watermelon Cooler
The next juice on this list is only available in the Summertime. But it is so good it had to make it onto this list.
The Watermelon Cooler is made from watermelon and mint. GET IT WHILE YOU CAN.
9. The Buzz
Next up – the Buzz juice. This juice is perfect for when you are craving that lemon gingery vibe or want a vitamin C hit. This juice is made from carrot, orange, lemon, and ginger.
The Buzz juice is vegan as-is.
10. Toxin Flush
The final vegan juice on this list is the Toxin Flush. This is the perfect vegan as-is juice for when you are visiting Nèkter in need of a mini detox.
