10 Best Kombucha Drinks | UK Nutritionist Reviewed

An accessible kombucha that's easy to like, No.1 Living is made from pure, ethically sourced premium teas, and is a great entryway into the world of kombucha. This range has been created by the hugely successful rugby player Jonny Wilkinson, and each particular flavour profile comes from simple and deliciously natural ingredients.

All the flavours are blended with a base of organic sencha tea, so even if you're not the biggest fan of pure kombucha, we're sure you'll find a can of this that you like. It pairs well with all sorts of meals, but we’re told it goes down a treat when paired with your favourite Indian curry. In our opinion, this kombucha is number 1 by name and number 1 by nature!

If you're a fizzy pop addict looking to curb your soda addiction, Remedy’s Raw Kombucha Tea is definitely your pick! Naturally sugar-free, the raw sugar used in the fermentation process is eaten up by the live cultures by the time it’s ready for consumption. 

Carefully sourced, vegan ingredients are used to create four refreshing flavours, available in 250 ml cans. They're both ideal for the fridge and convenient to carry with you on the go, ready for when you fancy a quick sip.

Attention designated drivers and non-drinkers! Are you fed up with the same old soft drinks and non-alcoholic beers? With less than 0.35% ABV per bottle, Real Kombucha offers a great alcohol-free alternative to some UK pub favourites.

Like a good IPA? Try Dry Dragon for its full-bodied yeasty flavour or, if you'd prefer something champagne-like, give the Royal Flush flavour a go. This one is a fruity and floral drink for all of life’s little celebrations.

Winner of the 2019 Great Taste Award, Hip Pop's vegan kombucha is brewed at a state-of-the-art microbrewery in Cheshire. A family run business, their small batch kombucha is fermented for up to three weeks and flavoured with organic fruits and herbs for an authentic taste.

Packaged in beautiful glass bottles, Hip Pop's kombucha not only looks great but tastes delicious and is low in sugar. Available in unique flavours such as strawberry pineapple and ginger yuzu, this is one you definitely need to try!

Got a sweet tooth? Lo Bros Kombucha can help you cut back on your sugar intake without cutting back on flavour! With a meagre 4 g of sugar per 250 ml bottle, it pales in comparison to the whopping 35 g found in your average cola. 

Lo Bros have opted for a base of single-estate, organic green and oolong tea. Decidedly more mellow than the classic green and black combo, oolong tea is partially-oxidised, making it a little maltier than green but with less astringency than black varieties.

Legend has it, Genie Kombucha was born out of an interest in probiotics for gut health and a recipe for delicious homemade fruit sodas. Not only are their brews packed full of live cultures, but each drink contains a dose of immune-boosting vitamin C.

Though undeniably delicious on its own, Kombucha can also make an excellent mixer for alcoholic drinks and cocktails. Providing you are of the legal drinking age, of course, next time you fancy a gin and tonic give the slimline a miss and opt for Genie’s Crisp Citrus instead!

Loving Food Kombucha comes in some pretty unusual and inventive flavours, such as Blueberry and Lavender, which is a sweet herbal blend that pairs very well with hearty casseroles and stews. 

Or, if cold, wet days have you feeling a bit under the weather, try their lemon and ginger kombucha - it may just help clear a stuffy head and get you back up and running. These are on the fizzier side, so might not be as easy to drink or as refreshing as some other kombuchas, but a bit of fizz might be just what you're looking for. 

As well as a blend of green and black tea, Biona Organic Kombucha contains mate leaves. Known as chimarrão or cimarrón, mate tea is a traditional South American drink that’s high in caffeine. 

While it won’t replace your morning cup of coffee, it does have a bit of a kick when compared to other kombucha drinks, so watch out if you're sensitive to caffeine! For the perfect mix of sweet and sour, we recommend the Sour Cherry and Mint, although the other flavours are equally as delicious.

Equinox Organic Kombucha is craft brewed using spring water and Chun-Mee green tea, a variety of leaves that originate from the Jiangxi province of China. Chun-Mee is generally more acidic than other green teas, giving the resultant kombucha a distinct tartness that's quite divisive. 

You can enjoy the full complexity of Equinox’s Chun-Mee kombucha by sampling their original unflavoured beverage, but if bitter flavours aren’t your thing, you may wish to try this berry flavoured option instead!

For a happy gut and happy mind, try this naturally fermented and unpasteurised kombucha from Europe's biggest kombucha brand, Gutsy Captain. Made with high quality ingredients such as bio certified green tea, this drink is not only organic but also has a number of nutritional benefits. 

Delicious and bubbly, this drink is available in a variety of flavours ranging from raspberry, to ginger and lemon. That said, some have noted that some of these flavours are very sweet. Regardless, Gutsy Captain has created a great health drink, full of antioxidants and enzymes, for you to enjoy!
