Hi everyone! :D I have a giveaway open to U.S. residents–15 VIP coupons for LIVE Soda Kombucha drinks, so make sure you head over to my instagram to enter!
I’m going to admit something here (please don’t stone me), but I am not the biggest fan of carbonated beverages. (It makes me all burp-y!) Usually, not liking carbonated drinks is a good thing, because it means that the last time I recall having had soda (or pop, depending on where you’re from) was probably over a decade ago.
That being said, I heard all sorts of amazing things about kombucha a while ago and have been curious about it ever since.

It comes in about a billion different flavors (alright, fine, it comes in 8, but close enough!), so there’s gotta be something that you like! :D
- Pure Doctor (I definitely got a kick outta this one…)
- Dreamy Orange
- Culture Cola
- Revive RootBeer
- Refreshing Rhuberry
- Living Limon
- Sparkling Ginger
- Pomtastic Blueberry
I’ve had the opportunity to try 5 of them (Pure Doctor, Dreamy Orange, Revive Root Beer, Sparkling Ginger, and Pomtastic Blueberry), although it’s not for lack of trying. I used to live in the middle o’ nowhere in West Virginia and the only store in my general vicinity was a Target between the two places I was staying (2 hours away), so I obtained the entire store’s worth of kombucha, and those were the flavors they had available.
Right as I was about to check em’ out at the counter, Target had a store-wide power outage. :O Twas a fun time, but I did manage to make it to my own birthday dinner/celebration almost on time?!
(The picture above only features 4 of em’ because I accidentally finished off all the root beer ones before I took the picture. Oops.)
I puzzled for a long time in regards to why they called one of em’ “Pure Doctor” until I realized…Dr. Pepper. Duh, Farrah. But I enjoyed using it as a prop anyway.
You will love Dreamy Orange if you’re at all a fan of orange cream soda and Sparkling Ginger is just like ginger ale (which somehow always more delicious when you’re on an airplane…)!
They make for a super refreshing drink, and I was honestly surprised at how much I liked them, considering how I’m usually not a fan of carbonation. That being said, one per day is generally enough for me (only because of the carbonation, because it tastes great, and seriously just like soda, but without all the sugar and terrible chemicals)!

I don’t normally like carbonated beverages either! It makes me feel bloated and eww. Hence, I rarely drink soda or any other type of carbonated drink. People at my work are in love with Topo Chico, a sparkling water, and I just can’t do it. I love water, but I like it with no bubbles please. Kombucha is good, though!

I’m glad I’m not the only one! Carbonated stuff tends to make me feel bloated too. Kombucha will probably be one of the few exceptions! :P
All of these flavours sound delicious! I don’t drink soda either (and never really have!) but I love Kombucha as a treat – ever since I tried it at the Farmer’s Market!

:O! I haven’t come across a farmer’s market with it! (Speaking of that, I need to scout out one around here! I haven’t been to one since I moved here!)
I have never had it but would love to try the orange & ginger. I do not drink soda, I hate it! But I do drink tons of seltzer! I like fizzy’s :)

haha, I’m not a fan of soda either, but I would happily drink this! :D!
I love Kombucha! Don’t drink sodas but the ‘fizz’ in this type of drink doesn’t bother me. Plus, Kombucha has digestive benefits. Ginger is my favorite flavor.

Ginger was definitely one of my favorites! :]!
I don’t drink soda, love the fizz of a little sparkling water, but keep it to a minimum. Have not had Kumbucha but your post has made me curious. Will pick up a bottle the next time I am in the market; dreamy orange and sparkling ginger sound like where I’m going to start!

I need to go restock sometime–it’d be such a refreshing drink to have after getting home from a long day :O I hope you get to try these sometime! :]
My husband actually brews kombucha for us! It’s pretty tasty. We’ve tried the one you are giving away but my kombucha loving son isn’t a fan of the flavors…

That’s so cool! :O! I’ve never tried any other brand, so I can’t really compare on the taste/differences, but I really liked the ginger and the orange one for these! :P
I have not tried this before, but I’m always looking for things that taste like soda but aren’t AS bad for you. I think I’d LOVE the Dreamy Orange.
