Natural ingredients.
Naturally uplifting.
Who we are
Our journey begins (like all great journeys), at home. In fact, in our kitchen! Wanting your loved ones to enjoy good wholesome food is something most people aspire to. So, to give our family and friends a naturally sweet, refreshing treat, we’d take fresh milk and dates, blend the two together and serve chilled. It became a firm favourite, which gave us an idea. Why not share the love? Five years later, Neqta was born!
Neqta® is a naturally uplifting milk drink, made with nothing more than semi-skimmed milk, dates and one other whole food ingredient. Light, naturally sweet and refreshing, Neqta is the perfect pick-me-up for when you need a lift during your day.
So, let us introduce you to our range of great flavours…
Our Range
It takes two as the song goes, and just two ingredients for our original flavour. With nothing more than semi-skimmed milk and dates, this is perfect pick-me-up for any time you fancy.
Ingredients: (allergens in bold) Semi skimmed milk 92%, dates 8%, and that’s it!
The perfect balance to that natural sweetness is a little natural spiciness. With nothing more than semi-skimmed milk, dates and a hint of cinnamon, for those wanting their Neqta with a little kick.
Ingredients: (allergens in bold) Semi skimmed milk 91%, dates 8%, cinnamon 1% and that’s it!

For all you coffee-lovers out there, we’ve added a dash to Neqta for when you need that little extra lift early morning or late afternoon (or whenever for that matter!)
Ingredients: (allergens in bold) Semi skimmed milk 90%, dates 8%, coffee 2% and that’s it!
Like most people, we love chocolate, particularly that rich taste of cacao that makes for a memorable indulgent moment. So we’ve added a touch to Neqta for that extra rich taste and a spot of indulgence.

Why Dates?
Dates have been used as a source of nutrition throughout the ages. They are also high in fibre, a good source of vitamins, minerals and contain powerful antioxidants. Dates are a great tasting way to replace refined sugar in your diet. As carbohydrates, they have the ability to boost energy levels. Since dates only contain simple sugars, those are converted to glucose for cells to use as energy. And this is not even the best part…
Slow release energy
Dates have low GI (glycemic index), which means they will be digested slowly by our bodies, keeping energy levels even throughout the day. Slow release of energy ensures athletes have got enough strength to perform well during their activity. Slow release energy is of great importance for sports nutrition, and we cannot recommend dates enough.
Sports Nutrition par excellence
Yes, you’ve read it right – dates contain protein, too! They’re not known as a ‘Superfruit’ for nothing. Although fruits in general are not famous for their protein content, dates are among the fruits with highest amount of protein. 100g of dates have about 2.5g of protein, which might not sound much as compared to meat, but considering you get the proteins from a fruit, dates do indeed make the case for sports nutrition.
That’s why Neqta loves dates!
FAQs
Do Neqta drinks contain any bad stuff?
No. None whatsoever. In fact, our drinks contain no artificial colours, preservatives, e-numbers or anything for that matter that has a name you can’t pronounce! Only whole-food natural ingredients in Neqta drinks and we’re going to keep it that way.
Are Neqta drinks suitable for vegetarians?
Yes. We’re also working on making our drinks Vegan approved. Look out for further updates.
Why do you use dates instead of sugar?
Raw unrefined sugar (like the stuff in soft drinks), can be damaging to your health. We wanted to ensure any sweetness in our drinks only comes from a natural source. Dates are a natural source of sugar. Not only do they provide natural energy, but taste great and give you the added benefits of vitamins, minerals and fibre.
Do you have any Dairy-free drinks?
Not at the moment, but watch this space. We’re working on exactly that!
