Kombucha Kamp Blog
According to Cartman, if you expect guests to show up, then you must serve punch and pie! We can’t say for certain if this works but we can share our recipes for Kombucha Party Punch. Little did he know that punch originated in India and was taken back to Great Britain in the 17th century where it then spread throughout the English speaking world.
Some theorize the word punch comes from the Sanskrit word for 5 as it typically contained 5 ingredients: sour (lemon or lime), sugar, spirit (rum, brandy), water and spice (nutmeg). Others believe it comes from the name of the vessel it was mixed in and to this day a “puncheon” is a short, squat barrel used in the rum industry. By the time the Victorian age rolled around, teetotalers took over the punch bowl and removed the alcohol but added sherbet to the mix.
Punch is Usually a Sugar Bomb
Offer good punch = Make friends for life.
Punch has remained a popular party potable but as mentioned, most recipes are loaded with sugar, sherbet, and soda which can lead to the usual crash and burn meltdown cycle. Switching out the soda for bubbly booch (or JUN or water kefir!) is one of the easiest ways to give your favorite punch recipe a healthy makeover. Plus, if it ends up spiked or for adults only, the organic acids in Kombucha which support a healthy liver allow for a healthy buzz with reduced hangover symptoms or as we like to say “a little antidote with your poison.”
No matter the season or the reason, we have a party punch recipe for you to share and enjoy with your family & friends! Check out this video for a quick, easy Sparkling Kombucha Party Punch.

I love Kombucha Kocktails! It’s an excellent way to marry the unique flavor profile of Kombucha with your favorite bitters, alcohol and aromatics. Especially because when I add Kombucha to the mix, I get a little antidote with my poison. The next day, I don’t feel the same negative impact as when consuming alcohol alone. Plus I can enjoy more than one co*cktail in an evening if it has Kombucha. Without the booch, I feel woozy and gross. Check out these other Kocktail and Mocktail recipes!

My husband made a great Kombucha sangria by mixing two parts of our strawberry lime Kombucha with one part red wine. It was fantastic!

Once I made martinis.. it was well into the night. It wasn’t that successful.. so we drank the bottle of kombucha instead.
