“After living in Rio de Janeiro and taking a trip around the world, I realised there was a lack of healthy soft drinks in Portugal. I quickly became motivated to become a driver of change in peoples’ daily habits. To assist in the healthy transformation of the Portuguese market following responsible production methods. To spread the message that our health and the health of our planet are deeply connected. ” (Gonçalo)

Materials
“Kombucha is made through the fermentation of the Camélia Sinensis herb, traditionally, black or green tea. A transformation process that can last for almost a month and gives life to a refreshing and lightly carbonated drink. Low in sugar and high in probiotics, organic acids and antioxidants, it is a perfect alternative to sugary drinks, soft drinks and alcohol. All MAI Kombuchas follow a calm and long fermentation of green tea. The flavor is made with natural ingredients.” (Gonçalo)
