Discover the Charms of Kombucha: The Probiotic Drink that is Conquering Portugal
In recent years, Kombucha has been gaining popularity in Portugal. This probiotic drink, originally from China, is refreshing, tasty and full of health benefits. And if you are looking for a high-quality Kombucha option in Portugal, you cannot miss Mai Kombucha .
Mai Kombucha is one of the leading suppliers of Kombucha in the country, offering a variety of delicious and nutritious flavors. One of the most popular options is the strawberry flavor, made in partnership with Equal Food, which resulted in a unique and irresistible flavor.
Kombucha is an ancient drink obtained from the fermentation of green or black tea with the addition of a colony of bacteria and yeast known as a "scoby". During the fermentation process, the scoby consumes the sugar in the tea and produces organic acids, enzymes and B vitamins. This gives Kombucha probiotic and antioxidant properties, making it a healthy option to include in your routine.
One of the main benefits of Kombucha is its potential to improve gut health. The probiotics present in the drink help maintain healthy intestinal flora, contributing to proper digestion and absorption of nutrients. In addition, Kombucha can also strengthen the immune system, reduce inflammation and increase energy levels.
When you choose Mai Kombucha, you are guaranteed to be consuming a quality drink, produced with selected ingredients and careful processes. The Mai Kombucha team is committed to offering an exceptional product, both in terms of taste and nutritional benefits.
The partnership with Equal Food to create the strawberry flavor is an example of Mai Kombucha's commitment to sourcing sustainable, locally sourced ingredients.
To further enhance the experience, you can experiment with different ways of consuming Kombucha. In addition to being enjoyed as a refreshing drink on its own, Kombucha can be used as a base for healthy cocktails, mixed with natural juices or even added to sauces and marinades.

And why Equal Food?
We are a project with the mission of helping regional farmers to sell their (im)perfect and/or surplus products, by selling and delivering fruit and vegetables to consumers in Algés who want to participate in a more sustainable food chain, while maintaining a healthy and conscious diet.
To date, thousands of people from the Equal Food community have contributed more than €70,000 to 50 local producers, thus preventing the waste of more than 100 tons of food that would otherwise go to waste.
As part of our commitment to minimising food waste in Portugal, we are constantly working to expand our network of regional farmers. Our goal is to continue to grow and play an increasingly important role in the fight against food waste in Portugal .
