Ingredient: pomegranate

In natural daylight on a purple tablecloth, a fresh pomegranate is cracked open. Next to it on a blue plate, a chunk of rock with a quartzite notch, fresh slices of lemon and 12 red grapes sit by a jar of honey.

Wheel of Fortune Kombucha

Give your wishes an extra lift, especially as a new year approaches! The Wheel of Fortune Kombucha features lucky fruits like grapes and pomegranates, that have a sweet and tart flavor.

As you prepare the Wheel of Fortune Kombucha recipe, place 12 grapes and 12 pomegranate seeds on a separate plate. Eat one grape for each month of last year – meditating on the past year. Eat one pomegranate seed for each month of the future year – and put your wishes out to the Universe.

Visit my Pom Pom Kombucha recipe for a demonstration of how to cut a pomegranate.

  • Grapes – sliced into bottle-sized pieces (1-2 tbsp)
  • Pomegranate seeds – fresh (6-10 per bottle. Use your lucky number)
  • Lemon juice – one squirt
  • Honey – one squirt

Imagine how much fun you’ll have enjoying this kombucha in the new year – a delicious reflection of your dedication!

The Wheel of Fortune is more than just a favorite TV game show – the Wheel of Fortune is a Major Arcana card in a standard tarot deck. When displayed, it asks the receiver to trust in the Universe, be optimistic, and let things take their own natural course.

This lesson is useful for high-achieving planners and organizers, especially as we approach a new calendar year. Let this recipe inspire you to take it slow and trust the Wheel spins in your favor!

Blood Oranges, Honey, Pomegranate

Blood Bursts and Honey Kombucha

In southern Wisconsin, fresh pomegranates arrive at grocery stores and co-ops in late fall to early winter. Pomegranates are high in antioxidants and help promote heart health.

In Greek mythology, they are known as the ‘fruit of the dead’ and are often featured in the myth of Hades and Persephone. Hades, God of the underworld, used pomegranate seeds to trick Persephone into returning to the underworld for a few months of every year.

Blood oranges arrive in early to mid-February. The combination of the two cannot be beaten. Blood oranges and pomegranates both are well-known for their magical properties, considering Persephone, the Greek Goddess. I like to slice sections into small triangles for my bottle. When I drink this recipe, the blood oranges retain a fizzy burst, right along with the pom seeds. That combination is so special and delicious. I hope you enjoy it, too.

Blood Bursts and Honey Kombucha gives drinkers a light, special kombucha when the season strikes just right.

  • Fresh pomegranate seeds – about 6 seeds (1 tbsp)
  • Blood orange – 2 sections of freshly peeled blood orange, sliced to bottle size (1 tbsp)
  • Local honey (1 squirt)
