Most wellness shots typically focus on fruit for nutritional value and flavor but Tulua's Functional Kimchi Shots offer a different take that condenses the health benefits of kimchi into a convenient, small-scale format.
Available in varieties like Orange Passionfruit Gut Health and Turmeric Ginger Skin Health, Tulua's Functional Kimchi Shots unite a multi-benefit fiery fermented food with cold-pressed fruit to share a convenient way to uplevel health. The Gut Health variety has been named a finalist in the Natural Products Expo West NEXTY Awards 2024 category for Functional Food or Beverage. The two-ounce Orange Passionfruit Gut Health Kimchi Shot is a standout for being a small yet mighty drink containing a kimchi-derived probiotic that boasts "200 times better gastric survivability than the most common probiotic strain," according to the brand.
