Using kombucha to compose your favourite cocktail will result in a drink that is bubbly, refreshing and better for you than its conventional high-sugar counterparts (or so we like to think). This citrus kombucha margarita combines lime, chilli and tequila with kombucha to become something perfectly suited to sipping at home — and the fact that you can buy kombucha from the supermarket makes it even more accessible during lockdown times.
