Nekter Juice Bar’s Secret Weapon: New Super(food)-Protein Offerings Nekter Juice Bar has also introduced two new, delicious and satisfying, “ultra-protein” menu items to help guests pump up their new year. According to Schulze, “A diet high in protein can help promote recovery after exercise, reduce muscle loss while building lean muscle plus it can help curb appetite to help keep you from reaching for ‘empty calories’ or highly processed foods. As many of us start the New Year with renewed plans to optimize health, protein can be a secret weapon in helping us achieve and maintain our goals.”

The new protein-rich menu items will be available beginning January 19 at participating locations for a limited time and include:

• Peanut Butter Cup Protein Smoothie: made with peanut butter, housemade cashew milk, cocoa, dates, cacao nibs, agave, banana, and protein powder (whey or pea) -- with 22 grams of protein

• Strawberry Banana Protein Smoothie: a blend of housemade strawberry chia jam, housemade cashew milk, strawberry, agave, banana, and protein powder (whey or pea) -- with 11 grams of protein

They join another protein powerhouse offering that has become one of Nekter’s most popular menu items, the Protein Power Bowl, which contains 33 grams of protein and is a rich fusion of strawberry, blueberry, protein powder (whey or pea), banana, cocoa nibs, coconut, peanut butter, peanut butter granola, housemade cashew milk, and a superfood blend.
