Beraka Juice
About
Beraka Juice is an organic juice business serving the Boston area, with spots in Winthrop and at Kendall in Cambridge and appearances at farmers’ markets and events. The menu centers on cold-pressed juices and shots, along with smoothies, açaí bowls, toast, nut milks and lattes, and grab-and-go eats. Owners Vanessa and Sylvestre describe their food as purposefully created to nourish body and soul, using high-quality organic ingredients.
The story began in 2016, when Vanessa, then an engineer, stopped drinking store-bought juice and later left her job on faith. Juicing apples at home one morning, she was struck by how much better fresh juice tasted, and a friend asked why she didn’t provide it to her community, since there were no juice bars nearby. Recipe development and business workshops followed. The name, pronounced ber-aw-kaw, comes from the Hebrew word for blessing used in Genesis.
