Good Morning Asif,

I can confirm that No Fear is suitable for vegetarians.
Please be advised that No Fear is not Halal certified, the flavouring used in the drink uses alcohol as a carrier. The actual amount of alcohol in the finished drink is less than 0.05%.

If you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact me.

Kind Regards, Heena

Hi,

Many of the flavourings used in the food industry use alcohol as a solvent or carrier for the flavouring.
The No Fear flavouring uses ethanol as a carrier and the finished drink contains less than 0.05%.
There are many articles on the internet that discuss whether flavourings which use alcohol as carriers are permissible in a Muslim diet.
There are arguments for and against consumption. It would be up to the individual to decide if suitable.

Kind Regards, Heena
