Kombucha may have been around for a couple of thousand years, but Waynesboro’s Blue Ridge Bucha is focused on keeping it fresh with flavors like Elderberry Lime and Ginger Hibiscus—and there’s “hard ‘bucha” for the over-21 crowd.

The result: bright, punchy flavors that have the added benefits of improving gut health. BlueRidgeBucha.com
