Kombucha Sangria.
Alternate title: how far can I take my kombucha obsession?
This far? I think so. Kombucha sangria is my newest favorite thing! Until my next favorite thing comes along. Which could be tomorrow. Naturally.
The plight of 2018 is that we can have favorites every three seconds and no one bats an eye! The constant turnover of favorites in my life is amazing and annoying. Especially when it comes to meals. I supposed it means that we can almost “always” have something we really, really, really love for dinner without getting sick of it, since there are soooo maaaannny faaaaavorites.
Had to drag it out for dramatic release. The drama is never enough.
Two weeks ago we did a kombucha mocktail and today I’m here with a legit cocktail!
I also sort of wanted to title this brunch sangria. Or brunch punch! There is kind of a brunch punch recipe in The Pretty Dish though, and it’s really different and delish. So I didn’t want to confuse us. (read: me.)
Into this pitcher goes an entire bottle of Pinot Grigio, just because it’s my favorite. (of course.) You could also use a red wine you like!
A little brandy, because it IS sangria.
We have some freshly squeezed blood orange juice, because it’s the season. Regular orange juice or even one of those Italian sodas works well too.
Two bottles of kombucha! The flavor is up to you, but citrus or cherry or berry or something of the sort is probably best. As long as you like it.
Lots of fruit! Whatever you have on a hand.
Now the real question is… can’t we just feel amazing about this sangria since it’s made with kombucha?!

Definitely good for us! I’m making it this weekend.

You make the best drinks on the internet!
thank you emily!
Ugh this looks so good. I’ll definitely be looking forward to this post-pregnancy. My favorite kombucha cocktail was a kombucha Moscow Mule, which came about because I was out of ginger beer but did have ginger kombucha. AMAZING. and I felt totally healthy while drinking my alcohol.
that sounds so so good!
I’m obsessed with Kombucha just like you are! It’s so good. I think you mentioned the gingerade flavor years ago and I’ve been hooked ever since. Can’t wait to try this too!
yesss i love the gingerade!
This looks amazing! I’ve never tried Kombucha-seriously want to give it a try now!

I’ve read your blog for years and especially love your cocktail recipes. In California we have “Boochcraft”, it’s high alcohol Kombucha (about 7%, the same as an IPA!) and it is absolutely delicious! Doesn’t give you that bloated, full feeling that beer does but still a pleasant buzz. I think they might carry it at Bevmo in other states now…cheers!
