I really wasn’t sure about the kombucha trend when it emerged several years ago. But it’s not only persisted – it’s flourished. Now you can find countless flavors of kombucha, kombucha on tap at restaurants, and yes, even hard kombucha. Kombucha can be a great source of probiotics for dairy-free consumers, and a lot more of you have been asking about dairy in alcohol this past year. So I decided to cover this new healthy-indulgence hybrid: GT’s Hard Kombucha.
GT’s Hard Kombucha makes it Easy to Get Dairy-Free Probiotics
Unlike most alcoholic drinks, GT’s Hard Kombucha lists full ingredients and nutrition facts. And unlike most other hard kombuchas, it has just 3% ABV, to help preserve the probiotics better during the brewing process. Each bottle (at time of bottling), contains the following probitics: 4 billion Lactobacillus Bacterium and 4 billion S. Boulardii. They also contain 100mg Lactic Acid (not dairy), 75mg Acetic Acid, 1400mg Glucuronic Acid, 650mg Gluconic Acid, and 10mg Polyphenols.
We sampled these beverages and found them quite refreshing and fulfilling. They’re bigger than your average drink, and have unique brewed flavors that aren’t very sweet.

So Nice 👌
Guava mimosa🥰 ..they are the key to stabilize your gut. They make so much since right where it counts.
Would drink again!
I’m not a kombucha person, but my neighbor loves hard kombucha, so we decided to give these a try. I was surprisingly impressed. The Heavenly Hops was the least sweet and the most like a hybrid beer. I liked that it wasn’t sweet and was different. The New World Noir was much sweeter, with a red wine vibe. I didn’t try the Piña, but my neighbor and husband said it was oddly spice-like. Not bad at all, just more fall in flavor than pineapple. They have a fantastic effervescence and the bottles are big. I usually had just a half a one, and the rest saved well, resealed in the refrigerator for a day or two.
