The Health-Ade Grapefruit Kombucha is a premium wellness beverage that aims to provide a burst of tart citrus flavor along with a touch of sweetness for an uplifting experience.

The drink starts with a base of [kombucha](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spraga-kombucha), which is paired with cold-pressed juice from organic ruby red grapefruits as well as [organic blood oranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blood-orange-kombucha). This helps to accelerate the tartness of the fermented tea as well as the sweetness level, while a touch of evaporated cane juice offers added sugar to balance out bitterness.

The Health-Ade Grapefruit Kombucha is focused on a free-from ingredient list that is non-GMO, organic, raw and gluten-free to make it suitable for consumers who practice specialty diets. The bubbly citrus profile of the drink makes it a healthful alternative to traditional [citrus sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/live-soda-juicy-grape) on the market.
