This is a simple punch recipe that has the added kick of kombucha. Kombucha is a fermented drink with probiotic qualities. I make my own, but you can buy it at many whole food / health stores. If you haven’t had kombucha before here are some articles you might like to read:
- Kombucha: Is it really good for you?
- LiveScience – What is Kombucha?
- Kombucha: Magical Health Elixir Or Just Funky Tea?
The punch is easy to make and requires only a handful of ingredients.
I don’t own a punch bowl, so made it in a drink dispenser. The recipe makes 3.25 litres, so you need a container that is big enough to hold that much liquid.
Adding the fresh fruit and mint is optional, but I think gives a lovely fresh flavour.
- 1.25 litres Kombucha
- 1.25 litres sparking mineral water
- 750 mls Pureharvest organic apple and raspberry juice
- 1 lemon
- 1 lime
- Ice cubes (optional)
- Fresh mint leaves (optional)
- Add mineral water to your dispenser.
- Pour in the apple juice.
- Pour in the kombucha.
- Add fresh fruit and mint, ice if you wish for it to be very cold and serve.
