Sure, it’s like anything else: The healthy properties attributed to fermented tea drink known as Kombucha might well be malarkey. As with many old-world recipes, sources are foggy, health claims are more or less unprovable, and, frankly, it’s hard to trust anything modern hippies consume or make in their own kitchens. (And Kombucha has all three strikes against it.) But this much we know: When we woke up yesterday morning, we felt like Unholy Fresh Death. And then, around 7PM or so, Kombucha Wonder Drink came into our lives. We drank down 14 surprisingly delicious ounces of the Essence Of Lemon Blend — it kinda tastes like a more vinegar-y Arnold Palmer — and suddenly, we felt like People again. People with thoughts! And feelings! Who could move! And articulate things! So… we’re sold. It may not take much, but hey, it is what it is. Next time you wake up with your face stuck to your face and the couch feels like a magic carpet gone horribly wrong, give it a shot. It’s not like you haven’t tried everything else at this point, right?
Don’t these things explode all the time? Because it’s a fermented drink in a glass bottle that cannot expand/contract? Last time I looked, Whole Foods didn’t seem to be carrying them.
GT’s Kombucha is a much better product, better taste, less sugar.
