If your new-found love for kombucha has left you wondering how much kombucha you should drink in a day, you’re not alone. There’s no right or wrong answer, in fact, it will be different for everyone. The amount you should drink will depend on several factors, these may be things like: whether your kombucha is homemade or shop-bought, the alcohol content, whether you have any medical conditions or if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding. There are a lot of things to think about, but the best approach is to listen to your body and do what’s right for you.  

How often should you drink kombucha?

Equinox Kombucha is so delicious, we wouldn’t blame you for wanting to drink it all the time, and while it’s perfectly safe, like most things, kombucha is best enjoyed in moderation. So, when considering how often you should drink kombucha, you could think of it like fruit juice – one to three servings a day is a safe amount. Here at the Equinox Kombucha HQ, employees typically drink one or two bottles of kombucha a day, and this gives them a boost and helps them feel their best. However our MD, Dan Spayne loves booch so much, he probably drinks four or five! As for when you should drink it, kombucha can be best enjoyed in the morning, with meals or as a post-workout drink

How much kombucha should you drink daily as a beginner?

If you’re new to kombucha, you might experience ‘detox-like’ effects. This is down to your gut taking in probiotics that it might not be familiar with. If you’re worried about how much kombucha you should drink or how your body will react, you might want to try drinking it in smaller quantities and building up, or diluting it with water. If you’re used to fermented foods, such as kimchi, it’s unlikely you’ll experience this, but if you’re not, these effects will quickly improve and you’ll soon begin to feel the benefits of fermented tea, such as an immune boost, an energy boost and generally feeling healthier. 

How often should you drink kombucha when pregnant or breastfeeding?

More often than not, the answer to how much kombucha you can drink when pregnant or breastfeeding comes down to whether your kombucha is homemade. Homemade kombucha can have higher levels of alcohol and caffeine than shop-bought kombucha, so best to stay on the side of caution here. However, Equinox Kombucha contains very small amounts of alcohol and caffeine, making it safe for everyone to enjoy including children, pregnant and breastfeeding women and Muslims. But if you have any uncertainty or concerns, it’s always best to consult your GP. 

How much kombucha should you drink a day if you are diabetic?

If you’re a diabetic and you’re thinking about how much kombucha you should drink in a day, you could try diluting kombucha with water – it will still taste great and give you all of the health benefits with less of the sugar. It’s also worth remembering that Equinox Kombucha doesn’t contain as much sugar as most fizzy drinks or fruit juices and it can make a great swap that will even take the edge off any cravings. Some studies show it can even help to manage Type 2 diabetes, as it’s made from green tea which is known to reduce blood sugar levels. However, the amount of kombucha you should drink as a diabetic will vary from person to person, and depend on the type of kombucha you’re drinking. It’s always worth checking the label for sugar content and checking your sugar levels before drinking kombucha. 

So, whether you like it, love it or you’re quite simply obsessed with kombucha, the amount you should drink and how often you should drink it will be different for everyone. The best way to judge what’s right for you is to try it out and see how you feel. If you’re anything like us, you’ll feel spring-in-your-step fantastic!
