Introduce acid and bubble into a cocktail with kombucha. This effervescent, living beverage has the sort of bracing acidity you can’t quite get enough of, which keeps you engaged and drinking swig after swig. Pair that with the natural sweetness and hydrating power of watermelon juice and you might as well call yourself a self-care expert.
Serving vessel: Pitcher with cubed ice
Glassware: Double rocks
Ice: Cubed
Garnish: 5 cucumber slices (seedless), plus more for garnishing each glass
1 (750 ml) bottle fino sherry
1 (375 ml) bottle ginger kombucha
12 ounces fresh watermelon juice
In a pitcher filled halfway with ice, add the fino sherry, ginger kombucha, and watermelon juice. Top with more ice. Stir to chill and incorporate ingredients. Garnish with cucumber slices.
