The flavor is reminiscent of the classic painkiller tiki cocktail but with a slightly darker twist. Each sip is a burst of fruity, tropical flavors in perfect balance with the subtle spice of warming nutmeg. This was my favorite out of the four flavors included in this sampler pack. Nutrition: Calories 149, Sugars 3.8g, Carbs 6.8g Ingredients: Coconut, Pineapple, Orange, Nutmeg, Green Tea, Jun Kombucha Let's take a look at these hard kombucha flavors. So, without further ado, cheers to the freakin' weekend. Now, I'm a bit of a lightweight, so I waited until the weekend to taste the flavors. It also improves digestion, detoxifies, strengthens the immune system, and can help reduce blood pressure. The results are a healthful beverage, rich in beneficial probiotics and antioxidants that can help kill harmful bacteria and fight off disease. For those who don't know, kombucha is a fermented, sweetened black or green tea made by pouring the tea in with a SCOBY ('symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast') in a glass container and fermenting it in a dark, temperature-controlled room for anywhere between six to ten days. So I had fresh, homemade kombucha most of my life, which definitely turned me into a bit of a kombucha elitist. Growing up, my mom had a serious kombucha brewing system set up in our basement. I'm personally a huge fan of kombucha in general, but I hadn't heard of or ever tried a 'hard' (or alcoholic) kombucha. The subscription is customizable, with delivery options for every week, every two weeks, or every four weeks. You can also subscribe to one single flavor in either a 12, 24, or 36-pack. The JuneShine subscription is available for the sampler pack that features four different flavors and 24 cans of hard kombucha. JuneShine has several other flavors currently available on their site, and they seem to keep things fresh, swapping out flavors and/or adding new flavors consistently, such as Grapefruit Paloma, Chili Mango (which sounds absolutely amazing), and Acai Berry. Let's talk kombucha! I was sent the sampler pack that consisted of four different six-packs of hard kombucha flavors: Midnight Painkiller, Blood Orange Mint, Hopical Citrus, and Honey Ginger Lemon. The flavors are smooth, earning the brand the title “the champagne of kombuchas." Classier than White Claw and healthier than beer. With no artificial colors, GMOs, pesticides, or processed corn or rice syrup, these alcoholic beverages are less toxic for not just your body but also the environment. Well, actually, each JuneShine can is brewed with real, organic ingredients, including green tea, fruit juice, honey, spices, and their very own jun kombucha base (also called ‘SCOBY’). I like to lead a fairly healthful lifestyle, but I also enjoy socializing and having fun on the weekends, and having an alcoholic beverage that supports my goals, or at the very least doesn’t hurt them, would be great! Most alcohol products don’t even have an ingredient list printed on the packaging. I had never thought about what was in the adult beverages I consume. Why do we know so much about the food we eat, but almost nothing about the alcohol we drink? That question was the inspiration behind JuneShine, a sustainably brewed, transparent, and wildly delicious hard kombucha.
