I, like many people, enjoy drinking Kombucha. I came upon this drink last year when I began to look for ways to replace soda in my diet. There is a small amount of alcohol in the drink due to fermentation (turn up.) and it comes in a variety of unique flavors. Although some brands are much better than others, it is still one of my favorite drinks.

It is a probiotic and it is healthy. I am getting SICK and TIRED of being told how disgusting this drink is. I am often being told it is crap by the same people who bash beer cans into their head and are probably named Chad.

They also think the taste is weird due to its unconventional flavors and preparation. Although I have had one poor experience with this drink, I still like it due to the other varieties that are being made.

I have one thing to say to the haters of Kombucha;

LEAVE US IN PEACE TO DRINK OUR FERMENTED PROBIOTICS. IF WE LIKE TO DRINK IT, WE CAN DRINK IT FREELY.

Now that I have therapeutically typed that in all caps, let's continue.

We live in a world where people are often chastised for the smallest of things. Take drinking La Croix, for example, you're a monster if you find this drink enjoyable. (Which I also do, so come at me.)

Often the unconventional is considered to be strange and unwelcome. However, I like to embrace different. I like to try new things and expand my taste pallet. Although I have some boundaries in what I will or will not eat, kombucha is something I genuinely like. It has helped me cut soda out of my diet and it has helped with my own health.

Although it is a unique and unconventional drink, leave the drinkers of it be. We are minding our business while we try to healthy.
