Health-Ade

We tried quite a bit of kombucha and truthfully this might have been my least favourite one. It’s not that it was bad, but it just didn’t feel like the taste was accurate to the name or product description to me. They describe it as very rosy and floral, but I thought the taste was honestly pretty sour and tart and the strongest flavour for me was easily the hawthorn in the mix. I drank it, but I felt let down a bit by it and I don’t think I’d purchase again.

Opened this up on Christmas Eve to drink and I ended up dumping it down the sink after trying it. Cheerful this was not. It tasted like straight-up apple cider vinegar and while I love a vinegary kombucha this was not for me. I also could taste cloves but nothing else flavor-wise stuck out. I need to remember next year not to buy this one…

Tastes like crisp, sweet, cinnamon-y apple cider, with a bite of that delightfully piquant fermentation that’s characteristic of kombucha. It’s expensive to buy, but way too high maintenance to get a piece of a SCOBY and make it myself… so it’s definitely a treat, but I do love a nice midafternoon ’bucha to pick me up and carry me through the rest of the work day!

#tiffanys2021sipdown Tea #134 overall / Tea #5 for April

Monday 04/05/21 — Health-Ade Pink Lady Apple. My boyfriend has been loving the homemade kombucha after one of his relatives gave him a starter jar + SCOBY + etc. for the holidays. Anyway, I’ve done a few Instacart orders to get some different flavors to try out (and then reuse the glass bottles). I had this one at work this afternoon with 6 or so hours of sleep (after a 12 hour shift last night then on an 8-hour shift). I have a headache which I don’t get often so maybe this wasn’t a great idea to drink. It was fine but nothing special that I’d want to repeat. I think I would like to try more unique flavors either form the packaged drinks or even cafes that have their own on tap/bottled.
