Imbibe Cites Healthier Lifestyles for Kombucha Growth

kombucha press 3 22Given their popularity and history, it can be hard to think of a time when tea and coffee were not among the top beverage choices for American consumers.

Once international novelties, these beverages have become staples for many consumers.

These attributes have aided the global kombucha market, which is expected to reach $7.05 billion by 2027, Costello says, citing Grandview Research. For the time period of 2021-2027, it is projected to have a compound annual growth rate of 19.7%, she adds.
