Recovering from early summer’s Great Kombucha Rapture, Vibranz kombucha is returning to stores, AP reports. And the good news is that Vibranz is raw, probiotic and under 0.5% alcohol (I was a bit worried that only pseudo-kombucha like the kind being made by Red Bull would get back into the national chains in a timely manner). GT Kombucha (the biggest kombucha purveyor, nationwide) says it will also be back in stores by the end of August.
Even in this hipster/locavore/weirdo-food haven that is North Brooklyn, the going got rough there for a moment, with kombucha briefly but conspicuously absent from the likes of Brooklyn Standard, even (thank goodness for Mombucha, who makes home deliveries!). I really need to start brewing my own soon … Help! Someone bring me a mother!
Anyway: stay tuned. I should have a nice, big article about alcohol levels in kombucha and the fed’s efforts to regulate it coming out soon …
