Kombucha is a fermented tea beverage made from brewed tea, sugar, and a living culture called a SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast). During fermentation, the culture transforms the tea, creating its signature tangy flavour, natural bubbles, organic acids, and live cultures.

At Booch, we brew our kombucha with organic tea, organic cane sugar, real fruit, and plenty of patience. The result is a crisp, refreshing beverage that's often enjoyed as a lighter, lower-sugar alternative to traditional soft drinks and alcoholic beverages.

At Booch, fermentation isn't just part of the process—it's the whole point.

Every product starts with real ingredients and is authentically fermented at our brewery in London, Ontario. We brew, ferment, can, bottle, package, and ship everything from our facility, ensuring quality from start to finish.

Unlike many beverages that simply add flavours or carbonation, we let our Mama SCOBY do the work. Time, fermentation, and real ingredients create the flavour, fizz, and functional benefits found in every Booch product.

Our Sparkling Iced Teas are fermented, functional beverages designed to be lighter and more approachable than traditional kombucha. Where our Kombucha is made with organic black tea & cane sugar, our Iced Tea’s are made with Green Tea & Honey.

They start with a fermented Kombucha base (Green tea & honey) & are then blended with brewed green tea / botanicals to create a smoother, less tangy drinking experience while still delivering the fermented foundation that makes Booch unique.

Think of them as the perfect introduction to the world of fermented tea. (See table for more info).

Not at all. Kombucha has been enjoyed around the world for centuries.

While the tradition is ancient, our approach is proudly local. Every Booch product is brewed and fermented in small batches at our facility in London, Ontario using organic ingredients and real fruit.

Our brewery is also home to our consumer taproom, where visitors can enjoy fresh pours, exclusive flavours, and experience the fermentation process firsthand.

Our most traditional fermented beverage, fermented for a minimum of three weeks to develop its signature tang, complexity, and natural fizz.

A lighter, smoother fermented tea experience made with organic green tea and honey.

These potent elixirs feature our Fermented Tea Vinegar, which is fermented for up to eight weeks to maximize organic acid development and fermented character.

Each product delivers a unique flavour profile and experience while sharing the same fermented foundation.

Every Booch product starts with the same authentic fermentation process. As Mama SCOBY transforms tea and sugar, she creates the live cultures, beneficial enzymes, organic acids, and signature tang found in kombucha (we typically cut her off at 3 weeks! Resulting in a perfectly fermented balance of tang, sweetness & bubbles!)

As fermentation continues (after the 3 weeks), Mama SCOBY consumes all available sugars which means the live microbes gradually die off and the liquid transitions into Fermented Tea Vinegar. This extended fermentation creates higher levels of organic acids—including acetic and gluconic acids—resulting in a more functional, concentrated fermented tea with a bolder flavour profile.

Whether you're drinking kombucha, sparkling iced tea, or tonics, every Booch product is built on the same fermented foundation.

As fermentation continues, our SCOBY consumes all of the available sugar. Once that happens, the liquid naturally transitions from kombucha into fermented tea vinegar.

At this stage, there are no longer significant live microbes, but what's left behind is just as valuable: higher levels of organic acids (including acetic acid), beneficial enzymes, and the functional compounds created through fermentation.

That's what makes it the perfect base for our Tonics.

Time matters.

Our extended fermentation allows the SCOBY to fully consume the sugars while naturally producing the organic acids and functional compounds that make fermented tea vinegar so unique.

We don't rush the process because the fermentation is what creates the foundation.

Daily support that earns its place in your routine.

Whether you're supporting immunity, boosting energy, or strengthening your foundation for the season ahead - don't just take a shot. Take one that works.

Our beverages are made with organic cane sugar or honey, much of which is consumed by the SCOBY during fermentation.

Sugar content varies by flavour and product. Please refer to the Nutrition Facts table on each package for exact amounts.

Yes. Because our beverages are tea-based, they contain naturally occurring caffeine (around 20mg of caffeine - this is equivalent to 1/4 a cup of coffee).

The amount varies by product but is significantly lower than coffee and generally comparable to a lightly brewed tea.

Booch kombucha contains less than 0.5% ABV, which is the Canadian threshold for non-alcoholic beverages.

The small amount of alcohol present is a natural byproduct of fermentation and remains well within the non-alcoholic category.

For perspective, some everyday foods and beverages, including fruit juices, can naturally contain trace amounts of alcohol as well.

Our products are made with simple, organic ingredients and authentic fermentation.

Booch products are proudly Organic! In the beverage world, not all products are created equal. Our PRO-CERT Organic badge isn’t just a label — it’s a commitment. We go the extra mile to source the best ingredients, every single time.

Common ingredients include:

• Organic tea.
• Organic cane sugar or honey.
• Real fruit.
• Live cultures from fermentation.

Some Booch products contain honey, including our Iced Teas and Tonics. As a result, not all Booch products are considered vegan.

Yes. Booch products are naturally sparkling and lightly carbonated.

Because carbonation develops through fermentation, some products may foam when opened. For the best experience, open carefully and pour slowly.

Not typically.

Over the years, we've worked hard to create what we believe is the perfect fermentation balance: not too sweet, not too sour, and never overpoweringly vinegary.

Our kombucha delivers a bright, refreshing tang balanced by real fruit and natural sweetness.

For consumers who are newer to fermented beverages or prefer a lighter flavour profile, our Sparkling Iced Teas are often a great place to start.

There is no established consumption limit for kombucha or fermented tea beverages.

For consumers who are new to fermented products, we generally recommend starting with 1–2 cans per day or 1 tonic per day and adjusting based on personal preference and comfort.

As with any fermented food or beverage, it's best to listen to your body and find the amount that works for you.

We keep our messaging simple and focused on what we know:

• Made with organic ingredients.
• Contains live cultures from fermentation.
• Made with real fruit and tea.
• Lower in sugar than many traditional soft drinks.
• Crafted through authentic fermentation

Many consumers choose fermented foods and beverages as part of their overall wellness routine and digestive health journey.

Our Booch Tonics are built on an 8-week fermented tea vinegar base - not juice.

We ferment organic tea until our SCOBY naturally transforms it into a potent fermented tea vinegar, then layer in adaptogens, botanicals, vitamins, and functional ingredients for targeted daily support.

Unlike many wellness shots that simply mix ingredients together, fermentation helps create a foundation that's designed to help your body get more from every shot.

It starts with fermentation.

Our 8-week fermented tea vinegar is naturally rich in acetic acid, organic acids, and beneficial enzymes, creating a functional base that supports:

• Healthy digestion.
• Gastric function.
• Blood sugar balance.
• Increased bioavailability.
• Gut microbiome health.

Then we add adaptogens, botanicals, and vitamins to create targeted blends for Energy, Immunity, and more.

Bioavailability is simply how well your body can absorb and use nutrients.

Our fermented tea vinegar creates a functional foundation that helps your body better process the beneficial ingredients in each shot - we don’t just add ingredients, we activate them.

In other words: it's not just what's in the shot - it's how well your body can use it.
