The Village Shop, Bandra
If you're a health freak, and believe in clean eating, you've got to bookmark The Village Shop for its lipsmacking organic and vegan food. We won't elaborate on the eating menu here because this list's all about Kombucha- so we'll stick to their Amla Kombucha and how amazing it is. When one thinks about Amla, one cannot help but make a face due to how bitter it is. But this drink is a bliss on a hot summer afternoon! The restaurant also keeps their own bottled Kombucha that's called The Village Shop Kombucha.

The Pantry, Fort
This is one of our favourite cafes in Mumbai, and we particularly love going here on days when we can schedule those super productive breakfast meetings. Lately, we’ve been obsessed with their kombuchas, the Kokum Kombucha being our favorite. Loaded with probiotics, antioxidants, vitamin B and other detoxification properties, this Kombucha is a true marriage between health and taste.

Woodside Inn, Andheri
This restaurant is one of the few in Mumbai that serves excellent craft beer. But did you know that it serves equally delish Kombucha, health freaks? We're talking about flavors like peach pineapple and kiwi cucumber mint. The latter one's our favorite, but pick your drug! Oh and this Oshiwara outlet is also pet-friendly, so bring your poochies along, and sip on some Kombucha!
