Toasted Coconut Kombucha Ice Cream Floats

You can't possibly go wrong with a title like that. Whether you're open to throwing in some alcohol or keeping it kid-friendly, this combination of flavors is incredible! These ice cream floats are perfect for a backyard bbq, bridal shower, or to simply enjoy at home on a hot summer day. Feel free to be creative with the flavors and mix up the options of kombucha and ice cream. I decided to keep things fairly simple with the Trilogy flavored kombucha, but added toasted coconut ice cream to make things unique. I used Arctic Zero ice cream, but a coconut-based product would be a great alternative!  A few fun combinations would be: Guava Goddess Kombucha + Orange Dream Ice CreamStrawberry Serentity Kombucha + Simple Strawberry Ice Cream Mystic Mango Kombucha + Key Lime Pie Ice Cream I've connected with GT's kombucha and they were grateful enough to share some information behind the benefits and bacteria in kombucha! Read along if you've ever been curious about probiotics, beneficial bacteria, or what all the hype is about kombucha! 

Behind the scenes with GT's Kombucha!

"We're happy to share that the main ingredient in all of our products is made with organic black tea, organic green tea, organic evaporated cane juice and a Kombucha culture (also known as a "mushroom" or SCOBY = symbiotic colony of beneficial bacteria and yeast). The living organism breaks down and converts the sugar and caffeine for 30 days (which is essentially a fermentation process), cultivating an elixir naturally rich in probiotics, organic acids, essential enzymes and other nutrients. The above description is encompassed on our ingredient list as just one ingredient. We feel it more accurately reflects Kombucha as more than just the sum of it parts. We make only this one product and offer it in many different flavors that contain additional organic, unsweetened ingredients, but only in small quantities. We never add artificial ingredients, sugar or other sweeteners for flavor purposes."
