Drinks for the Office: Kombucha on Tap
Coffee has long been the dominating force in the realm of office beverages. While there’s good reason for people to love coffee, especially cold brew, a new name has emerged in the world of productivity-inducing office beverages. Well, calling it “new” isn’t exactly truthful. This drink has been around for thousands of years, and it’s estimated to have first appeared around 220 B.C. in Manchuria. It’s hard to deny something that has stood the test of time and persisted for over 2,000 years.
Benefits of Kombucha for the Office
Kombucha is a tangy, sweet, fizzy, and altogether fun beverage that is made from fermented tea. Its light carbonation and slightly vinegary flavor dance on your taste buds and wake up your senses. Taking a sip brings life to even the dullest of moments, and it is the perfect companion for slow Monday afternoons at the office. The benefits of having kombucha on tap at the office cover improvements in physical health, mental health, employee satisfaction, and productivity.
Physical Health: Kombucha is chock full of probiotics, which are healthy bacteria that help our digestive systems function. Lack of sleep, stress, smoking, and poor eating habits contribute to an off-kilter microbiome in the gut. When balance is off in your digestive system, it can lead to issues with your immune, gastrointestinal, and cardiovascular systems.
Mental Health: What was once a gut feeling is becoming a gut fact. Emerging studies are finding that there is a definite link between your gut and mental health. Your gut is responsible for 95% of your body’s production of serotonin, the “happiness chemical”.
Employee Satisfaction & Productivity: This one is a bit more subjective, but if it weren’t for the bubbly kombucha sitting on my desk, this blog would still be bouncing around formlessly inside of my head. Tasks just seem easier with a fun beverage in hand. Thanks, kombucha!
