Fiery Ginger Kombucha Soda

A boldly gingery canned kombucha soda made with organic ginger extract, fermented from black tea over ten days. Eight Great Taste awards to its name.

About This Drink

The Fiery Ginger is the one Genie Drinks has won the most recognition for — eight Great Taste awards, which is a notable tally for what is fundamentally a can of kombucha at two pounds. The ginger is the point here: organic extract rather than a token flavouring addition, which gives genuine heat rather than a vague warmth. The base is standard black tea kombucha, fermented over ten days, giving a properly tart foundation that works well with ginger's assertive character. Apple and lemon juice are in there too, adding brightness without tipping it into smoothie territory. There's a natural sharpness across the whole drink that suits the flavour — this isn't a sweet ginger beer with fermentation added. At 20 kcal and 3.9g sugar per 100ml, it's low-calorie without trying too hard to be. Vegan and gluten-free. The kind of drink that works as a mid-afternoon pick-up or alongside food — the ginger has enough presence to cut through.
