I haven’t been feeling so hot lately. It’s a long story that I’ll go into another time.
In an effort to calm my literal and figurative belly-achin’, I picked up one of these little guys today…
I tried kombucha for the first time several years ago and spit it right back out. I couldn’t understand how anyone could stomach drinking something that tasted like straight vinegar. But, I’ve been hearing about it all over the blog world again recently and figured that if so many people were truly enjoying it, that maybe it was worth another shot.
Here goes nothin’…
Huh!?! Well, wouldn’t you know, I like kombucha! There’s definitely still a vinegary edge to it, but it kind of reminds me of a sour Flemish beer or a hard apple cider. Very tasty!
In fact the only thing bad about it is this…
Those are leftover strands of the live culture. They look like loogies or jellyfish bloorping around in my beverage!
I gulped them down like a champ though.
The kombucha really did help to settle my stomach, and now I have a somewhat expensive and esoteric health beverage to add to my list of weird crap I eat! Yay!
😉
Hehe. I really enjoy kombucha as well. At first I had a similar reaction but not the case now. Hope you are feeling better soon.

Get this – you know the Kombucha from Asheville that I was raving about? I emailed them and they told me that they are getting in on tap on the Whole Foods on Ponce? I am very excited for this!

Oh wait, I blogged about that. And it wasn’t supposed to be a question. Perhaps I should go back to sleep!

Ha! Hilarious! Thanks for making kombucha look so appealing again, I really do like it and will probably be drinking tons more of it in the future.
