Rowdy Mermaid offers a variety of functional wellness beverages.

Challenged by his young daughter to make a beverage she could drink from the botanicals and herbs in their Colorado garden, Founder Jamba Dunn created the first-ever low sugar, low acidic, non-alcoholic (<0.5% ABV), caffeine-free Kombucha in 2012.  Today, Rowdy Mermaid is a functional beverage brand offering two distinct product lines:  light, smooth, refreshing Kombucha and delicious Sparkling Tonics with Adaptogens. As for the Rowdy Mermaid name? Let's just say his rambunctious, water-splashing daughter provided the inspiration there too!

Drink

This drink is okay. They all taste a little too much like beer for my liking, but none of them taste bad or are offensive. The price is very good for what you get. 

Overall I really liked it, I'm not a big kombucha drinker as I think the are usually a bit too strong but there were really easy to drink. Its a lot like a probiotic soda and the fermentation taste is not at all overwhelming. I really liked the flavors I tried and would consider purchasing again. 

I feel like flavor is creative and ingredients are clean. For a kombucha I enjoy that it isn’t too sour and almost tastes more like a deluted sparking water with flavor. I love that it’s organic and refreshing!

Not knock-your-socks-off great, but refreshing and reasonably tasty. Lunar Berry (which blends blueberry, lavender, and vanilla) was aromatic and balanced the trio of flavors well, while Savory Peach (peach and thyme) delivered on the peach with corresponding savoriness, though I didn't specifically taste thyme. That having been said, store-bought bottled kombucha such as Health-Ade tastes better, and of course nothing compares to fresh-off-the-tap (or even growler-filled) competitors (I'm admittedly spoiled, living in San Diego where there are a number of kombucha distilleries). In short, based on these two examples Rowdy Mermaid products aren't the best, but they're a decent substitute if bottled or fresh kombucha isn't otherwise available. 

I like these! Alpine lavender is probably my favorite one but I have tried a few flavors and none of them disappointed. It's not the strongest kombucha flavor, it tastes more like a sparkling water or juice type drink but I think they are really tasty. They have some really unique flavors too and I'm impressed how strong the lavender is.

So good. Great non alc alternative. Not too sweet or tangy. 

I think GT’s Living is the epitome of live kombucha with Health-Aid being kind of a poor competitor in the area. However I enjoyed the probiotic level and fresh juice in the rowdy mermaid kombucha.
