What You Should Know

You'd spot this chilled in the refrigerated kombucha/functional beverages section or in an organic aisle, often grabbed as a grab-and-go fizzy refreshment. It reads as a healthy, trendy, probiotic pick-me-up—lightly sweet and effervescent with a clean, natural-fruit vibe. The short organic ingredient list and cold-pressed apple juice point to few added ingredients, but the canned, shelf-ready format and commercial production signal industrial processing consistent with a processed beverage.

Common Questions about Organic Pink Lady Apple Kombucha 4 Pack Cans, 46 FZ

It really depends on what you mean by 'healthy'! This kombucha is low in calories and made from organic ingredients, which is a great start. However, it does have 12 grams of sugar per can, so if you're watching your sugar intake, you might want to enjoy it in moderation.
