Tori Holmes, co-owner of Nectar Juicery, says the store has developed a cult-like following in the last two years since its launch.
Co-founder Lara Kozan, who runs YYoga, has been helping Holmes nurture clients with three lines of juices: alchemy, cleanse and organic juice.

In Holmes’ words, Nectar’s juices stand out because of the alchemy used to produce them, i.e., a carefully selected array of ingredients based on the wellness outcome desired by the consumer.
Energizer, for example, is a vibrant orange-coloured juice made with carrot, orange, Hawaiian turmeric, ginger, lemon, and black pepper, and is can help fight the urge to snack on unhealthy food options.
Holmes bases her recipes on her deep understanding of holistic nutrition and helps devise products that create fuel for the body. Moreover, the store offers smoothies as well.
The store has been designed keeping in mind a contemporary clientele. It sports copper stools facing a window looking out on to the street on a floor lined with hand-painted Moroccan tiles.
