​NEW FLAVOUR! PEAR'LICIOUS is heeeeeere!! 🍐

From our "create a flave" contest, the winning flavour combo created by Liz Baltazar is now on tap at The Olive Tree in Deep River, Blendz Smoothie Shop in Pembroke, and The Nickel Refillery Inc. in Sudbury!!

Featuring fresh organic pear, smooooooth vanilla, and a wee bit of ginger, this flavour is juicy, sweeter than usual and soft on the bubbly. 

Think: refreshing, upbeat vibes, chillin' in the sun.

Fill up on tap for a limited time!!

We've tried something new! CRABAPPLE SUMAC!
Another locally harvested flavour made with ingredients from the beautiful Ottawa Valley.
We've hand-picked lots of crabapples in the area (thanks to friends and family!) and we're loving the fruity taste of this one!

A delicious brew that's not tot too tart, naturally sweet, and flush with flavour. Think freshly juiced apples with a hint of wild berries (and that's exactly what it is!). 
Sumac berries are anti-inflammatory and a powerful antioxidant. Combined with Vitamin C from the crabapples, and the usual benefits of raw kombucha, this is the perfect beverage for this time of year.
Aaaaand Crabapple GINGER has returned!
We had to make use of every last drop of juiced crabapple, so back by popular demand is our Crabapple Ginger. Made with hand-picked local crabapples and freshly juiced organic ginger, this seasonal flavour is sure to please the palate (and help give your immune system a boost!).
Pour yourself a tall glass!
On tap at The Olive Tree in Deep River and Blendz Smoothie Shop in Pembroke.

Pour yourself a cold glass of Very Cherry kombucha!

This refreshingly simple booch made with organic Ontario cherries is sure to please the palate on a hot Summer's day.

Fill up on tap at The Olive Tree in Deep River, and Blendz Smoothie Shop in Pembroke. 

Just in time for the long weekend, our limited edition seasonal flavour Strawberry Rhubarb is here!

We infused our raw kombucha with organic Ontario strawberries and fresh, locally harvested rhubarb to create this refreshing flavour. It doesn't get much better than enjoying the fruit of our own backyard! Best served chilled over ice and enjoyed on a hot Summer day, this brew is sweetly satisfying and full of healthy benefits.

Fill up on tap at Blendz Smoothie Shop and The Olive Tree in Deep River. PLUS for a limited time, you can purchase a 1L booch refill AND a Strawberry Rhubarb Pie made fresh from B & R Bakery for only $20!!

Cheers to local goodness!

​Wishing you a happy Canada Day long weekend!

Our Seasonal flavour Maple Rose is back, only this time it's a little different. 

Made using maple sap and wood-fired maple syrup in place of water and cane sugar to start the batch, this brew has a smoky, mild syrup taste and a slight hint of rose. Sourced from our friends in Chalk River, Bagg's Road Maple Syrup was boiled down over a wood fire, giving it a more earthy, camp fire taste, prompting us to rename the batch Wood-fired Maple. Thoughts of camping and cooking over the fire came through over the first few sips, and we're feeling the first Summer vibes around here. Let's hope the bugs stay away (we can dream, right!?). 

Try Wood-fired Maple on tap now at The Olive Tree in Deep River and on deck for next week at Blendz Smoothie Shop in Pembroke. Let us know what you think of this unique brew!

​We've created a special Pride edition kombucha to show our support for the LGBTQ community!

Introducing PRIDE and EQUALI-TEA Kombucha.

Developed to stand out from the rest, this booch made its debut on tap today featuring a fun, bolder, appearance, symbolizing uniqueness, inclusion, and flare.

As a kombucha brewery, an exciting part of our work is flavour development and taste-testing. Originally we had thought of formulating a kombucha combining a fruit from every colour in the rainbow, but the end result would have had less effect and visual appeal. Pride and Equali-Tea is much more simple in flavour, yet loud and proud in its striking colour.

Infused with organic whole pineapple, stevia leaf, and blue algae powder, this vibrant brew is anything but ordinary. Known in colour psychology as the colour of the evolved soul, Turquoise not only helps evoke peace, happiness, and creativity, but it is said to help open communication, build self-esteem and self-love, which in turn supports our ability to love others unconditionally.

As a proud sponsor for the Pembroke Pride Festival, we also wanted to take the opportunity to use our kombucha for the cause.
$1 from every 1L Pride and Equali-Tea bottle sold will be donated to supporting Pride initiatives in our community.
Booch lovers can fill up on tap in Pembroke at Blendz Smoothie Shop and in Deep River at The Olive Tree, knowing their purchase contributes to making a difference. 

Although the brew is seriously delicious as is, we thought a signature Pride and Equali-Tea kombucha cocktail recipe would take it to the next level. 

- Pride and Equali-Tea Cocktail -

4 oz Pride and Equali-Tea Kombucha
3 oz Pineapple Juice
1 oz Blue Curaçao 
0.5 oz Vodka
Pour over ice or combine ingredients in a shaker, serve in a tall glass and garnish with a pineapple, strawberry or whatever suits your fancy.
Make it colourful, just like you!
*Opt out of the alcohol and it's just as delicious as a virgin cocktail!

Other cocktail recipes like Electric Lemonade, Smurf, or Blue Margarita can be made by using half juice, half kombucha or by fully replacing the pop with kombucha.

June is Pride month. We stand proud alongside our LGBTQ family members, peers, those in our community and across the globe. Together we unite, not only this week, this month, but always, making our voices heard and understood, moving forward in alignment so that we never have to be afraid to wave our flag and show off our brilliant true colours. 

Join in the many fun and exciting activities throughout Pembroke Pride Week from June 7th to 15th and for a full day of celebration at the Pembroke Pride Festival on June 15th. A huge thank you to the Pembroke Pride volunteers and organizers!

We haven't had this flavour on tap since our first Farmers' Market days and it couldn't come back at a more opportune time! Known as one of the top most potent anti-viral herbs, elderberry is a major cold and flu buster. If you've had that bug that's been going around (or have been one of the lucky ones who hasn't) this is the booch for you!

Made with organic elderberry and elderflower, this kombucha is seriously delicious (if I do say so myself!), lightly fruity, and ever-so-slightly floral. Described by Hippocrates (the "Father of Medicine") as his "medicine chest", elderberry has a wide array of benefits and uses including help with sinuses, allergies, and blood sugar stabilization, but is most known for its effectiveness at mitigating cold and flu symptoms. 

And if you're already healthy as a horse, well just try it for the refreshing taste. ;)

Our new seasonal flavour, Crabapple Ginger is now on tap at The Olive Tree in Deep River!

We freshly juiced both local crabapples and organic raw ginger to bring you this delightfully refreshing kombucha combo. Who knew juicing crabapples was so delicious!? 
​
Rumour has it there's an end of Summer cold going around. Raw crabapple juice contains a high dose of Vitamin C and raw ginger is anti-inflammatory and contains loads of antioxidants. Kick that cold to the curb while making your belly (and taste buds) happy.

Welcome back Maple Rose Kombucha!

We're pleased to tell you that after a long wait, our Spring seasonal kombucha has returned. New and (nutritionally) improved, this batch of Maple Rose was made using local maple sap instead of water, local maple syrup (we boiled ourselves) instead of cane sugar (typically used in the fermentation process), and organic rose petals.

The taste is subtle, not very sweet, more like a fermented sap than a sugary maple syrup addition. Be prepared for a different tasting Maple Rose from last year's sweeter variety.

Using local maple sap and syrup provides additional benefits to the kombucha given that maple syrup contains nutrients and minerals like zinc and manganese, antioxidants and phytochemicals. We suspect there is also beneficial bacteria present in the sap as this brew took almost a month to ferment, perhaps the sap bacteria was in competition with the kombucha bacteria. Lots of good stuff for your digestion!

We hope you enjoy a different take on our Maple Rose. Let us know what you think when you fill your 1L glass bottles at The Olive Tree!

Cheers!

Hey Honey! Check out our latest beverage, Jun.

What is Jun, you ask? Jun is a fermented tea very similar to kombucha but instead it uses honey as the nutrient rather than cane sugar. A traditional kombucha SCOBY (A.K.A. the culture) cannot use honey for a nutrient source as the naturally-occurring antibacterial properties of the honey will damage the beneficial bacteria of the kombucha culture. Jun SCOBYs have adapted over time to be able to use real honey as its food source, creating a sweet, distinct honey flavoured drink with the same probiotic and beneficial acids as kombucha. 

In addition to the health advantages of kombucha, consuming jun will expose you to the numerous benefits of honey. Raw honey contains amino acids, enzymes and polyphenols, which are powerful antioxidants that reduce free-radical damage and may help reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer. Consuming honey native to your area will also boost your immune system, can alleviate symptoms of a cough and sore throat, and may help decrease seasonal allergies. 

We use a premium raw Canadian honey that is 100% pure, natural, Kosher, and unpasteurized, providing you with the full benefits of a true honey. Our Nude Jun is unflavoured, keeping the brew traditional and simple to let the subtle sweetness of the honey shine through. 

Try our Nude Jun on tap at the Olive Tree in Deep River with our environmentally-friendly 1L refill program. 

We've teamed up with Engine House Coffee to bring you the perfect combination of cold brewed coffee and raw kombucha. 

Using their Still Standing medium roasted coffee beans, this cold brew infusion is bound to wake you up and keep you chugging along. Coffee lovers will delight in the full flavour and dark chocolate notes of Still Standing and kombucha fans will enjoy the sweet tang of the raw kombucha.

Engine House Coffee roast their fair trade organic coffee beans in Eganville, Ontario and offer a wide selection of coffee varieties roasted fresh in small fresh batches. You may have seen owners, Dan and Genevieve at the Carp Farmers Market or sipped on a delicious cup of Engine House jo somewhere throughout the Valley. Their freshly roasted beans are available for purchase online or in a number of stores in and around the area. 

For a full list of stores carrying Engine House Coffee, visit www.enginehousecoffee.com. 

Our Engine House Coffee Kombucha is available on tap at The Olive Tree in Deep River and LEAP Health Hub in Pembroke. 

Please note that due to the caffeine of the coffee, this flavour will be much more caffeinated than any other flavour. 

Cheers!

Pumpkin Spice and everything nice. Well, we weren't going to jump on the bandwagon, but we had a lot of pumpkin spice kickin' around... so Pumpkin Spice lovers; this one's for you!

Introducing our latest Fall Seasonal Flavour...

Pumpkin Spiced Apple

On tap at The Olive Tree in Deep River and LEAP Health Hub in Pembroke for the month of October. 

New flavour alert! We're launching our latest kombucha LEMONLESS LEMON!

Subtle in its herbal taste, the name says it all. Made with organic lemongrass, lemon verbena, and lemon balm, this new flavour enhances the natural citrus-like taste of raw kombucha without any actual citrus. 

Available on tap at LEAP Health Hub in Pembroke and The Olive Tree in Deep River while quantities last.

EXTRA! EXTRA! Read all about it! We've changed our 1L bottles!
We've swapped out the flip-top bottles for these Boston Rounds and hope you'll be as happy with them as we are. We know you might have a wonderful, loving relationship with your Ikea flip-top, but let's be honest, it just wasn't going to last. The old bottles served us well and we loved the 'pop' when you opened them but we had to travel to get them, some seals weren't locking properly, the bottles were actually 1.1L and we weren't able to recoup the true cost of everything. Sooooooooo.. here we are, with an awesome new bottle that we've had our eye on for quite some time. A true 1 litre bottle, sleek and simple with a twist-off cap to keep a better seal. This also means you will pay less with a lower cost bottle. Really a big win all 'round. We hope you like them and would love to hear your opinion. You are welcome to keep your old bottles, but our Big Booch Refill Program is still in place. 
Thanks for being awesome!

**Spoiler alert! Our location pictured below is our brewing location only. Our booch is on tap at The Olive Tree! Open Monday to Saturday ;)

From sunny and warm one day, to cold and blustery the next, it looks like Winter is now here to stay. We've enjoyed having people stop in to see our brewing location and we regret that we've missed some of you. As the brewery is for the production of our kombucha (mostly done after our daytime jobs) we aren't there on a regular basis. The Olive Tree health food store beside the LCBO in Deep River carries our kombucha on tap and is open Monday to Friday 9:00-6:00 and Saturday 10:00-5:00. At The Olive Tree you can buy 1L bottles, 12oz cups, and bring in your empties for our Big Booch refill program. Bonus: you can check out so many other great local products and health food options while you're there!

At long last! Our kombucha is now available ON TAP at The Olive Tree in Deep River beside the LCBO! With a choice of two flavours, you can fill up with our 1L bottles or 12oz cups at your convenience. We are also offering our Big Booch program for refills. This is what we've been waiting for. Thanks to Olivier for being our very first customer ever and now our first retailer! Soooooo excited!!
