Does the Jared Leto kombucha that the protagonists of Glass Onion drink exist? Is it an invention or does a fermented tea with an alcohol content really exist? In this post, we reveal the secrets of kombucha that, especially the most cinephiles, cannot get out of their heads.
The presence of kombucha in our daily lives is increasingly widespread. More and more people are starting to consume it as a healthy replacement for soft drinks and low-alcohol drinks. Its natural flavor and the well-being that its consumption causes are, without a doubt, two important assets for the consumer who intends to take care of themselves inside and out.
If you are addicted to movies and television series, you will have seen that lately everyone is talking about the second part of «Daggers in the back. The mystery of Glass Onion» (Netflix). Starring, among others, Daniel Craig, Edward Norton, Janelle Monáe and Kate Hudson, the sequel Daggers in the Back, which conquered the public with shades of an Agatha Christie novel and a classic comedy, launches a scene in the first minutes of footage where kombucha is the indirect protagonist.
Miles, the host of the house on the Greek coast where all the guests are, offers them a special kombucha created by Jared Leto. This versatile actor and singer supposedly produces a kombucha that contains alcohol, which is known as hard kombucha and everyone who tries it in the film falls in love with it.
Although it could well be that Leto had dedicated part of his time to making this fermented tea because he is a firm advocate of healthy eating, he is most likely just an admirer of the benefits of this drink and the scene is nothing more than a wink. to your interests. It is, then, a joke that the director of this successful detective comedy, Rian Johnson, introduces in a calculated manner.

What is hard kombucha?
Hard Kombucha is a variation of fermented tea with ancient origins that has natural probiotics, organic acids, enzymes, minerals and vitamins. Gently bubbly, this drink is highly probiotic, helps digestion and is very detoxifying. The hard version contains alcohol in its formula, reaching up to 9 degrees. That is why it is considered an alcoholic beverage and should be consumed in moderation and knowing the effects that alcohol has on the body.
Traditional kombucha is characterized by hardly containing any alcohol in its final result . The fermentation that is carried out from sweetened green tea, which includes a colony of bacteria and yeasts that are responsible for the process, causes the appearance of some alcohol in the final mixture. However, by professionally controlling the process, as in the case of Mun Kombucha, the drink does not reach 1.2% alcohol. If it exceeded this amount it would be considered an alcoholic beverage.
