Anything or Whatever

A new beverage angle from Singapore. “Anything” is carbonated and comes in 6 flavors, “Whatever” is non-carbonated and comes in 7 flavors, but all the cans are generically labeled, so you don’t know which one you’ve got until you taste it.

Synergy Gingerberry Kombucha

Synergy Gingerberry Kombucha was about as fun to drink as you’d expect, for a beverage that lists “100% pure love!!!” as one of the ingredients. And then: “lactobacillus bacterium: 1 billion organisms ((Does that sound rounded-off or what.)).” And also, this: “Each batch is gently placed in a warm and spiritual environment where the walls […]
