The recommended amount of kombucha for a healthy adult is 250 to 500 ml per day. If you have never tried it before, start with small amounts (100-150 ml daily) during the first week and gradually increase according to your tolerance.

Our recommendation is to start with 100 ml daily, a small glass. Gradually, listening to your body's sensations and according to your tolerance, you can increase the dose until you find yours.
The usual amount for a regular consumer is between 250 and 500 ml per day, divided into one or two servings.
Mūn formats
250 ml bottles and 330 ml cans are the ideal size for a single serving. At Mūn, we have been making kombucha since 2015 and have developed varieties so you can choose according to the time of day or your preference.
A 250 ml bottle or a 330 ml can is a complete serving. Consuming two per day is within the recommended range for a healthy adult.
Choosing kombucha wisely
When choosing kombucha, do so wisely. A good kombucha allows you to:
- Reduce the sugar and calorie intake from soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, or other kombuchas with high residual sugar.
- Drink a live, unpasteurised beverage with natural probiotics.
- Accompany any moment of the day: after exercising, sharing with friends, instead of coffee, with meals.

Can kombucha be consumed daily?
Yes. Daily consumption of kombucha, provided it does not displace water as the primary source of hydration, is a common option and is associated with several positive effects:
- Support for the digestive system, due to the natural probiotics and enzymes it contains.
- Contribution of antioxidants (tea polyphenols + organic acids from fermentation).
- Contribution to the balance of the gut microbiota, where a significant part of the body's serotonin is produced.
- Low-sugar and low-calorie alternative to sugary soft drinks.
Kombucha is not a medicine and does not replace a balanced diet: its effect is associated with regular consumption as part of a varied diet.
When to drink it?
There is no single ideal time. It can be consumed:
- On an empty stomach or replacing the first coffee of the day.
- With breakfast.
- After exercising.
- In the afternoon as an alternative to a soft drink.
- With lunch or dinner as an accompaniment.
The ideal consumption option is when you most fancy it and it feels best for you.
Serve it cold
Before consuming your Mūn Kombucha, chill it in the fridge. It is when cold that its flavour and the gentle natural fizz generated during the second fermentation are best appreciated.
You can drink it on its own, in your glass or cup, or use it to prepare healthy shakes, smoothies, or mocktails. It can also be included in cocktails for special occasions.
Frequently asked questions
How much kombucha can be consumed per day?
The recommended amount for a healthy adult is 250 to 500 ml per day, divided into one or two servings. If you have never consumed it, start with 100-150 ml and increase gradually.
Is it safe to drink kombucha every day?
Yes, for most healthy adults, daily consumption is safe, provided it does not displace water as the primary hydration and the recommended dose is respected.
When is it best to drink it: on an empty stomach or with meals?
Both options work. On an empty stomach, the effect of probiotics is better utilised. With meals, it aids digestion. The ideal is to try and see what feels best for you.
Can it be consumed at night?
Yes. It has a very low amount of theine (less than 3 mg/100 ml in most Mūn varieties), so it should not affect sleep. However, if you are very sensitive to caffeine, avoid drinking it just before bed.
Is a 250 ml bottle enough per day?
Yes. A 250 ml bottle is a complete serving suitable for a healthy adult. If you want to drink more, you can reach 500 ml divided into two servings (morning and afternoon, for example).
Can I drink more than 500 ml per day?
For most healthy adults, there is no problem, although exceeding 500 ml daily does not provide extra benefits. For people with digestive sensitivity or who are taking medication, it is best to consult a healthcare professional.
What if I am new to kombucha?
Start with small amounts (100-150 ml per day) during the first week. This allows your microbiota to adapt to the probiotic intake and reduces the risk of temporary digestive discomfort.
Are there people who should not drink kombucha?
Yes. Consult our detailed contraindications: pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, children under 3 years old, and people with certain digestive conditions or medical treatments should avoid it or consult their doctor.
