Saudi Arabia has introduced Milaf Cola, the world’s first soft drink made from dates, at the Riyadh Date Festival. This unique drink, created by Thurath Al-Madina, uses dates instead of traditional sweeteners like corn syrup, making it both healthier and more nutritious.
Dates are packed with fiber, antioxidants, and essential minerals, and Milaf Cola contains no added sugar, offering a tasty and healthier alternative to regular soft drinks.
This launch is part of Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, which aims to promote locally made and sustainable products. By using dates as the main ingredient, the country highlights the versatility of this traditional fruit while encouraging healthier consumption habits.
Milaf Cola meets international food safety standards and is expected to gain popularity not just in Saudi Arabia but around the world. The brand plans to expand globally, showcasing dates in a modern and innovative way, moving beyond their usual role as a simple snack.
This milestone reflects Saudi Arabia’s commitment to innovation and sustainability in the food and beverage industry. By introducing a soft drink that combines health benefits with great taste, Milaf Cola sets a new trend in the market and redefines how dates can be enjoyed.
The global expansion of Milaf Cola could change how people perceive dates, making them an essential part of modern diets while supporting local agriculture and sustainable practices.
