Genie Living Drinks
Genie Living Drinks began as a conversation between two old friends — Alex Webster, who prepared homemade fruit sodas, and Bill Read, who was obsessed by the power of probiotics. They challenged themselves to create the perfect sot drink, with three wishes: their drinks would need to taste delicious, but grown-up enough to replace alcohol, have no added sugar or artificial ingredients and be genuinely gut-healthy. With this criteria and their combined expertise, Genie Living Drinks’ range of live sodas and kombuchas was born. The drinks are 100 per cent vegan (not a given with all kombuchas, sadly), low calorie and made with highly efective probiotic bacteria. Genie’s live sodas are the first of their kind in the UK and are available in two fresh flavours — lemon and ginger, and original orange (both very high in Vitamin C). Likewise, Genie’s kombucha, brewed from black tea for three weeks, comes in two equally tempting flavours; dry apple and crisp citrus.
