Guest guest Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 When I buy commercial kombucha, I usually look for one made locally in San Francisco by a company called the Rejuvenation Company. Recently, I couldn't find that brand and bought one called Kombucha Wonder Drink. Does anyone know if this brand is raw or not? After I bought it, I noticed it doesn't say it is raw on the bottle. Also, anyone know the Rejuvenation Company? They also make rejuvelac. I love their kombucha, and would like to contact them but can't find contact info.

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 I've got to say that I am really bummed out to hear this because I totally love their Oolong Blend. That said, I'm also a little relieved because I am spending too much money on it and I've been procrastinating about getting a SCOBY and starting to brew my own KT. I like GT's too, but it is even more expensive than the KWD. I really need to get off my kiester and start brewing, don't I? I want to make it with Oolong because it's sooooo good! -- On 3/20/07, sndrzwgrs <s.zwegers@...> wrote: > > > > Recently, I couldn't find that brand and bought one called Kombucha > Wonder Drink.

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 Thanks to you and Tasha for your answers. I was pretty sure that IF it was raw, they would say so....

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 Hi Bruce, on the website www.wonderdrink.com they say " The benefits of Kombucha are in the acids that are created during fermentation. These acids help detoxify your body and are not affected by pasteurizing. " That certainly makes me think it is not raw. They also carbonate it. I have never heard of The Rejuvenation Company. That doesn't mean much though. I have never seen commercial kombucha in Canada. I keep looking because I would like to try it once to compare to my own, but it doesn't seem to be out there. Or maybe it is just not available in Greater Vancouver.

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Hello Silani, I've tried the kombucha wonder drink, just for comparison to my own brew. I know that it is pasteurized, I read about it on their website. ine Silani Wahlgren <silani@...> wrote: Hello, I'm wondering if anyone knows the product kombucha wonder drink and if it is any good. It does not say it is raw, like Gt Dave's, so I'm wondering if it is pasteurized and therefor not as healthy. I wanted to send a case of GT Dave's over to my mother, but she's in Edmonton (Canada), and GT Dave's doesn't seem to be in any of the health food stores I've called there so I'm not sure if it's sold in Canada. If anyone on this list has tried the " wonder drink " or knows of a source of raw kombucha in Edmonton, I'd appreciate the information. I know she won't make it herself. The bottled drink I'm questioning doesn't have any additive in the ingredients, but I just don't know how useful it will be if it's not raw. If I have to ship GT Dave's, the shipping will cost a lot.....I'm not even sure I could do that, because it's raw. Thank you, Silani --------------------------------- Don't let your dream ride pass you by. Make it a reality with Autos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
