Nékter Opens Encinitas Location

Nékter, a wellness and healthy living brand, continues its expansion in San Diego county with a new location at 127 North El Camino Real in Encinitas Village.

Nékter Encinitas offers a newly expanded menu of delicious cold-pressed juice blends,  smoothies, vegan snacks, and popular cleanse packages. In addition to tasty, vitamin-rich selections such as ‘The Sublime,’ ‘Toxin Flush,’ ‘Popeye’s Acai’ and ‘Chocolate Dream,’ people can customize their juice orders and enjoy antioxidant-packed acai bowls in a number of varieties, including Acai Banana Berry and Pitaya. A collection of Grab ‘n Go bottled juices (including the newly released “Skinny” line), energy and immunity shots, artisan salads and quinoa varieties provide quick options for people on the go, while cold-pressed Nékter ‘On the Rocks’ cocktail mixers are perfect options for holiday entertaining.

In the spirit of the upcoming holiday season, Nékter has introduced the Sweetie Pie, a blend that tastes like pumpkin pie in a bottle: sweet potatoes, apples, pear, ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg, with a detoxifying dose of turmeric root. A calming blend loaded with vitamins, it will help bring balance to hectic holiday schedules.

Nékter is also known for its two-, three-, and five-day Cleanse programs designed to increase energy and aid in the release of toxins.

“San Diego has been great to us and we’re very happy to now have two locations open here,” Nékter co-founder Steve Schulze said. “We are confident that Encinitas residents will embrace the Nekter lifestyle and appreciate the friendly atmosphere of our juice bar, and look forward to supporting the community in a variety of ways.”

Since 2010, Nékter has grown to 425 employees and supported more than 50 communities, local farms, neighboring businesses and philanthropic initiatives. Another enhancement this fall will be an updated Web site, complete with new customized features that will easily allow visitors to navigate and order product from anywhere in the U.S. With a dedicated following in Southern California and Dallas, Texas, more Nékter juice bars are set to open through the fall months in Huntington Beach, The University of Southern California (USC), Northern California and the Phoenix, Arizona market. An additional 70 cafes are slated to open in 2014 and 2015, including more expansion to the Midwest and East Coast.

In addition to the Encinitas and La Jolla bars, Nékter has plans for additional openings in the San Diego market, including Point Loma in the coming months.
