Reviews mention

  • Vibrant, balanced flavor variety
  • Crisp, effervescent mouthfeel
  • Distinctive, reusable glass packaging
  • Perceived gut-soothing benefits
  • Occasionally too sweet profiles
  • Sometimes sharp, vinegary aftertaste
  • Inconsistent carbonation retention
  • Narrow, awkward bottle opening

Health-ade earns largely positive reviews for flavorful, crisp kombucha that many say supports gut comfort and comes in distinctive, reusable glass bottles; Pink Lady Apple, Passion Fruit Tangerine, Ginger Lemon, Cayenne Cleanse, and Mint Limeade stand out. Reviews also flag drawbacks: sweetness and added sugar for some palates, occasionally strong vinegary or “funky” aftertaste, variable carbonation/fizz, and small or hard-to-open bottle mouths. Overall, the brand is considered good—often a go-to—with vibrant flavors and broad variety, but not ideal for those seeking low-sugar or ultra-mild kombucha.

  • I thought health-ade was yummy but nothing special or stands out from other kombucha brands. Feel like the other options are just as good but the pink lady apple is a great flavor I will say

  • Kombucha is definitely an acquired taste and I don't think it tasted bad, it is just too carbonated for my taste.

  • I really enjoy Healthade Kombucha! Clean ingredients, lots of flavors, and appealing packaging. You can usually find a bottle on sale at your local grocery store. Kombucha is a great option for a healthy gut!

  • This kombucha is amazing! They have so many flavors to choose from and they come in the nicest bottles! I love reusing them for my own drinks! These are so delicious and are very good for your gut health. They aren't super expensive either.

  • This is one of my favorite kombuchas of all time, and I try to pick one up whenever I see them on shelves. I've had the pomegranate, but I really like the pink lady one above all. Refreshingly tart, and isn't as strong as other kombuchas. Also, holding the thick bottle reminds me of being a kid again and holding on to one of those juice jugs.

  • Health-ade is hands down my favorite! Their kombucha is bursting with deliciousness and just the right amount of fizz. As a kombucha fanatic, I can't get enough of how refreshing and satisfying every sip is.

  • It tastes good but it feels like it contains more refined sugar, it doesn't have that nice tangy kombucha feeling that other brands might have.

  • One of my favorite brands of Kombucha, epically the Pink Lady Apple flavor. Only knocking off a star because every once in a while I'll get a flat bottle from the store, but besides that, tastes delicious and feel good drinking it!

  • Love the Health-ade kombucha. Pink lady apple is a favorite, even my kids ask for this by name. Taste is divine. Do wish they made in a bigger size for sharing purposes - sometimes you just don't want to share!

  • Go-to kombucha, especially anything with ginger. Pretty bottles and good variety of flavours

  • This is a pretty good brand of kombucha. It’s usually one of the more reasonably priced in my local grocery stores. The flavors are pretty standard kombucha flavors.

  • Love their kombucha! Not overly sweet or sour and the different flavors are delicious. I especially love the passion fruit tangerine.

  • Meh. Didn’t think there was much taste to it and it seemed a bit watered down.

  • By far my favorite of the major kombucha brands and trust me, I've tried them all. Health-ade is super accessible and has a lot of different flavor options.

  • Totally addicted to this kombucha. Literally just bought another bottle. So delicious. Havent tried a flavor I don’t like!

  • I love kombucha and have tried countless brands and Health-ade is by far the most common brand of kombucha you can find. I liked it and was happy that it was organic but I don’t know if it was the flavor (apple) but I just wasn’t too impressed. I definitely need to try some other flavors though.

  • Really love the flavors offered! Only downside is the amount of sugar in these drinks.

  • Great tasting kombucha, in a bottle that protects and preserves the probiotics. Just a bit too much sugar

  • what's not to love!! great flavors, good for you, great bottle to reuse

  • Very tasty, bottles are nice. A bit sugary and honestly I don’t drink them that often because of the acidity and effects that has on teeth.
