The innovative product, named Majlis, is crafted by Midtown Factory using a proprietary brewing technique that ensures it remains completely alcohol-free while capturing the authentic taste and complexity of traditional brews.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Igor Sergunin, the mastermind behind Majlis Premium Arabian Ale and CEO of Midtown Factory, shared the historical significance of the drink: \u201cOur journey began with a desire to revive a beverage that has deep roots in the Arabian Peninsula. Thousands of years ago, people brewed a non-alcoholic drink believed to aid digestion, which travelers relied on for sustained energy during their journeys. The brewing process took two to three days.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Majlis adheres to the same traditional brewing methods but incorporates controlled yeast to maintain its halal status. \u201cWe use the same ingredients\u2014malt, water, yeast, and hops\u2014which together produce essential vitamins like B1, B6, B15, C, and D. With our advanced technology, we ensure that all our products are halal,\u201d Sergunin explained.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After undergoing rigorous testing, the company proudly received Halal certification from UAE authorities. \u201cWe have successfully passed the Halal certification process, confirming the integrity of our product,\u201d Sergunin stated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What sets Majlis apart from conventional brewing methods is its unique approach that keeps the beverage alcohol-free from the very beginning. \u201cCrafted with care and adhering to halal guidelines, Majlis employs proprietary technology that guarantees the process remains alcohol-free throughout. This method preserves the essence of halal principles while delivering the authentic taste of a brewed beverage,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sergunin\u2019s motivation for creating Majlis stemmed from a desire to provide healthier options for his children. \u201cWhile shopping for drinks, I noticed that many were heavily processed and unhealthy. I wanted to create beverages that would be beneficial for everyone,\u201d he remarked, emphasizing their collaboration with nutritionists to perfect the recipe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Notably, Majlis drinks contain no processed sugars, deriving their sweetness from natural sources. \u201cThe sugars in our drinks come from nature,\u201d he noted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Available in five unique varieties, Sergunin prefers not to label them as \u201cflavors.\u201d He explained the rationale behind reviving this ancient recipe: \u201cThese drinks originated in this region, and the UAE is the ideal place to introduce them to a global audience, given its diverse population.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Positioned as a healthier alternative to traditional energy drinks, Majlis offers sustained energy without the crash. \u201cOur drinks provide long-lasting energy,\u201d Sergunin affirmed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The brand name, Majlis, embodies the spirit of gathering rather than partying. \u201cMajlis means \u2018gathering.\u2019 It\u2019s about coming together and enjoying our halal-brewed beverages,\u201d he concluded.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Original Article:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Halal Weekly.
