kombucha

Random, and probably wholly uninteresting to anyone but myself, but I am currently obsessed with kombucha. More specifically, GT'S Synergy, which has a teeny bit of fruit juice added to it as well.

Really random, I know. But I've started drinking it recently and I'm sort of hooked. It's tangy and slightly effervescent, which is a winning combination in my book. Plus, it makes me feel virtuous because of all the new-agey hoo-hah about the benefits of probiotics and raw food. I love when I can find foods that make me feel smug. I usually avoid stuff of this ilk because I think a lot of things termed health foods are nauseating. It's a little like the line in Woody Allen's Sleeper where he says "This stuff tastes terrible. I could make a fortune selling it in my health food store." So it's nice to find something that's touted as being healthful that I hands-down love the taste of.

Granted it's not for everyone. I gave Daniel a sip of one last week so he could taste it and he immediately cringed and looked at me like I was trying to poison him.  I guess I can see how the idea of fermented tea that has large chunks of bacteria floating around in it might not have instantly won him over. Oh well. More for me!
