4 Kombucha Cocktails for the Holidays

Sprinkle in a little more holiday cheer! It's the one time of year you can really be extra: trees inside houses, ugly sweater contests, same movies on repeat, loads of sugary cookies, strings of sparkling lights, and lots of holiday cheer (drinks). We've created 4 kombucha cocktail recipes for the holidays that are festive, delicious, easy, and beautiful. Though it may not be as easy as simply pouring a glass of Boochcraft, we promise you it will be worth the "extra" effort.
