JuneShine earns largely positive reviews for flavorful, refreshing hard kombucha that many prefer to beer or seltzer, with standouts like Midnight Painkiller, Blood Orange Mint, Hopical Citrus, and Mango Daydream. Reviews also flag inconsistent or overpowering flavors and sweetness, occasional artificial-tasting notes or odd aftertaste, and some report headaches, acidity, or heaviness after multiple cans—making it a hit for sunny-day sipping but not for everyone.

Delicious! Does slightly mind trick you into thinking you’re being healthy while drinking. Sneaky strong, too!

The taste was not to my liking.

Flavors could be more simple - similar to what I am used to purchasing with normal Kombucha.

hard to know how much caffeine is in there, I hesitate to drink them at night for that reason.

I'd put a ZERO here if I could. Never liked June Shine, flavor is awful and skunky--- I DID LOVE FLYING EMBERS-- so did a lot of people. Long story short June Shine bought Embers only to destroy their product. Now flying Embers tastes like garbage, the flavors are off, it doesn't even taste like kombucha, worst of all they are adding STEVIA. I cannot believe a less than company had to come along and destroy a product like this. It's the only drink i liked and its gone. I don't want to send my money to june shine. I hope someone comes along makes a better product and blows them out of the market. They completely suck.

this product is great! I love the taste and the aesthetic is nice, too! I buy these every once in a while and will continue to. It has added vitamins!

I have found all things but Juneshine give me a nasty hangover even with just one serving. As a busy and always working gal on the go and into fitness I struggled finding a drink that I enjoyed and could drink without any repercussions to unwind from time to time. Easy to pack for bait days and I always find myself introducing it to people and it quickly has become a fan fav in my social circles.

It is not available at all spots so it is a bit trickier to find and hard to find stores that carry multiple flavors.

I'm a longtime fan of Juneshine!!! I have been drinking it since it was only available in SoCal. So excited for the brand's expansion and all the new products. Prefer just the hard kombucha vs. the new mixed drinks / low calorie options.

I love the ingredients but not so much the aftertaste.
Feedback
I found it a little too sweet.

While I'm not a frequent drinker, I love to grab a June Shine when I'm in the mood! I'm someone who is not only picky with drink tastes, but I would rather do literally anything else than have a hangover... JuneShine is not only taste but because of the low sugar + kombucha, I wake up hangover free!

Such a refreshing beverage. Love that I'm getting a little something extra like vitamins and probiotcs with my booze.

I bought JuneShine at a bar, then followed up with another purchase at my local Union Kitchen. I thought the 3 varieties of drinks that I tried were all very good! I like it when a hard kombucha doesn't taste "like a hard drink" and these ones were very mild on the alcohol taste.
Feedback
I thought the grapefruit flavor was the least "kombucha" tasting SKU. I think it would be nicer if it was more "grapefruit-y" flavored and possibly sweeter.

I love Juneshine. They taste good and have an ABV of 6%!! I love all the different flavors and I have yet to have a bad one.
Feedback
I do wish they were slightly cheaper.

I’ve tried a variety of hard kombuchas and June Shine will always come in last. Yes, they paved the way for hard kombucha to get in the market, but their flavors are subpar and very sweet. Their ginger flavor is the only one I’ll drink, but I still have trouble taking down a whole can cuz of the sweetness. It’ll drink hard kombucha due to my gut issues and other brands like Boochcraft don’t aggregate my stomach and get my hungover like June Shine does.
Feedback
Sweetness, bubbles.

Great summer drink without the bloating of beer or the sugar hangover.

Love love loveeee JuneShine. I remember seeing these a few years back and being hesitant but since they put out more flavors I am totally converted. They taste good and make me feel like I am doing at least a little good for my bod :))

I love love love juneshine. It’s super light and never hurts my stomach. It also makes me feel healthier while I’m drinking because kombucha is known for gut health. Such a great alternative to a seltzer, but what makes it different is that it actually tastes great!

More flavors please

I love JuneShine and all their seasonal products. Taste great and good for days on the beach with friends.

This is REALLY good. My husband hates kombucha and I drink it regularly and we both really love this. I purchase the variety pack and love the Blood Orange Mint & Midnight Killers the best. Hopical Citrus is VERY hoppy which I don’t love but if you’re a beer drinker you’d probably enjoy it!

Love June Shine! and love the different flavorings they come in.
