This Winter Spiced Kombucha Punch is full of seasonal flavours!


A festive, non-alcoholic drink you can enjoy all season long.

And, the True Büch Vanilla Chai Kombucha brings it up a notch with its cinnamon spice that’s perfect for the Winter season!


I love a good Winter cocktail and this drink is no exception.

With hints of vanilla and chai, cardamom and ginger, True Büch’s Vanilla Chai Kombucha is the perfect base for this drink! I added warming flavours like cinnamon sticks and mixed in fruits of the season like oranges and pears too.


This punch is not only a feast for the eyes but the tastebuds too! I might even say it’s like Christmas in a cup.

Ingredients

  • 4 355mL bottles of Vanilla Chai True Büch Kombucha
  • 1 pear, chopped or sliced
  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
  • 1/2 orange, sliced
  • 2 cinnamon sticks

Sugared Rosemary Garnish

  • 4-6 rosemary stems (cut to fit nicely as a glass garnish)
  • sugar
  • water

Instructions

  1. In a large pitcher mix together kombucha, pear slices, cranberries, orange slices and cinnamon sticks. Let sit for a half hour before serving.

  2. To make the garnish, rinse rosemary sprigs in water, shake to get excess water off and then roll through the sugar to coat – do this for each piece of rosemary and then set aside.

  3. Want to make this a cocktail? Add a splash of prosecco or champagne to each glass.

I really enjoy using True Büch Kombucha for non-alcoholic drinks like this punch because it brings a wealth of flavour AND it’s chocked full of many probiotics and enzymes that are good for your digestive system.


You might remember I used True Büch’s Ginger Kombucha in my Kombucha Cranberry Bourbon Smash too.

I created this drink so that everyone can enjoy a festive sip during the holiday season.

Cook’s Tip: Use frozen cranberries in this punch to keep it cool!


But, if you want to add more of a sparkle to this punch you can top with some champagne or prosecco to make it a cocktail!

So, let’s cheers to the season friends!


Until the next cooking adventure,
Jess
