Singapore's Halal Kombucha

What Is Kombucha?

A fermented drink filled with a variety of nature probiotics, beneficial acids, anti-oxidants and organic enzymes, many celebrate Kombucha for its health benefits. Made from fermented black tea, it's a powerful tool for detoxification and weight loss. It's also known to help strengthen your immune system, aid digestion, boost energy levels and aid allergy relief!

This is because Kombucha targets the gut - and since 80% of our immune system is affected by the gut, it's important to ensure our gut is strong at working at optimum levels!

And they claim to be halal! There's a very small amount of alcohol in Yocha kombucha - only 0.2%. That's because any trace of alcohol that can be found in their kombucha is a result of natural fermentation. Similar to the way yoghurt, tempeh and kimchi are good to eat despite the fermentation process that occurs, kombucha could be good to consume!
