The newest limited-release flavor from Brew Dr. Kombucha is Watermelon, which combines sweet and hydrating watermelon essense, hibiscus and guava puree with a base of fermented sencha green tea. Sencha is a kind of green tea that's known for its uniquely grassy and earthy flavor profile, which makes it one of the most popular types of green tea. With the other ingredients, green tea-based beverage becomes refreshing and tropical.
As Matt Thomas, founder and CEO of Brew Dr. Kombucha, says: "Call us crazy, but we’re not ones to shy away from trying something new, different, or potentially weird. This year we decided to create flavors that could remind us of warm summer days during the cold of winter."
