BLUE KOMBUCHA SYNERGY FULL

One more trip through the hasty parking lot and the white-out roads lead us back to safety-that meant the moment I had been waiting for was about to ensue. In my standards, the location in which the taste test takes place is vital to the overall experience, so I needed to hold off until we were hunkered down in Jessie’s abode. The glass settled into the blush of my palms as I scoped out the flavors that “Bloom” offered resting in a bed of lilac hues beneath the butterfly read the flavors jasmine, elderflower, and violet-how could this combo be any more perfect? As I reached to pick it up, an intricately designed butterfly fluttered into my grasp, holding the title of the flavor vertically in its torso-this was certainly one of my favorite designs I have ever seen etched on a GT’s bottle. Then, in the very bottom left corner of the GT’s section, I saw it: the spring edition flavor, “Bloom.”Ī glint of amethyst and lavender leaped into my line of sight, pulling my attention even closer to the bottle. We walked closer to the glowing chrome of the kombucha shelves, noticing nothing out of the ordinary. We acquired the candles we came for, but something inside told me that I needed to go check out the kombucha selection would there possibly be the new flavor awaiting my purchase?

Once the automatic doors swooped open with chivalry, the bright lights and boughs of grocery store goods welcomed us. Instead, it was almost a reenactment of how the trip went when I first bought “Pure Love” back in January. I was anticipating the moment I would be purchasing the spring edition flavor, but I expected a little less snow and a little more sun. From the moment our feet met the parking lot pavement, high-speed winds and belligerent flakes of snow thwarted us-the antithesis of what the nearing spring season is supposed to bring.

After all, GT’s had not made any Instagram posts alluding to a spring flavor, so I was trying not to get my hopes too high.Īfter browsing Trader Joe’s for celebratory food items, my best friend Jessie and I made our way to Meijer to scour their birthday candle selection for our miniature, yet decadent chocolate cake. Now, as I am shedding my seventeenth year on this planet, I have felt the need for a proper awakening-possibly something that could take the form of a new kombucha flavor for my looming adulthood.Īs much as I have relished the Winter Edition flavor, “ Pure Love,” I have had a subtle lingering thought about what the spring edition flavor would entail what would the flavors be? What would the packaging look like? What would the color scheme be? And most importantly, when would this flavor hit the shelves? Too many questions floated around my head about this unknown flavor, so I decided to be patient. Though I am seeking a warmer world, I continue to use cool bottles of GT’s Kombucha to cope, something that is very in character for me. The day we spoke, it was Fuyu persimmons.I am desperate for spring, as most of us-at least in the Midwest-are.

He starts with a blended cold-pressed juice (he likes the spicy greens) from his Juicero-a $700 juicer popular among the Silicon Valley set-before he piles in coco kefir (young, raw coconut water rich in probiotics), chia seeds, spirulina, raw bee pollen, a frozen banana, blueberries or raspberries if he has some, Plant Fusion pea protein powder, and, depending on the season, whatever fruit he can find at the market.

This is just the beginning of the one-and-a-half-to-two gallons of fermented tea he drinks every day.Īfter his morning kombucha and meditation, GT Dave (Yes, this is his full name) makes a smoothie. “What I love about kombucha, when you consume it in the morning, is it kind of establishes a nice solid foundation for your stomach and gut and appetite for the rest of the day,” he says. But the 39-year-old Californian, who lives in Trousdale and grew up in Bel Air, is serious about GT’s Kombucha, the company that launched the probiotic beverage into the mainstream and made him a fortune. This might seem like an exercise in branding for the founder and CEO of the world’s most successful kombucha company. The first thing GT Dave does every day is drink kombucha.
