LA Brewery sparkling English rosé kombucha
- Available from Ocado (£10/750ml), Amazon (£24.44/2 x 750ml bottles)

Best blush sparkling tea
Made from white peony leaves from the Fujian province in China, this blush-coloured sparkling fermented tea is crammed with summer berry notes and gentle funkiness. Drink chilled on its own, or use as the base for a 0% sangria with chopped cherries, strawberries and raspberries.

Amathus Drinks (£8.90)
Jing Jasmine Pearls sparkling tea
- Available from Jing Tea (£22.10)
Best jasmine sparkling tea
Made in Fujian, China, this green tea is scented with fresh jasmine flowers. Bone-dry, bright and refreshing, it has wonderful honeyed jasmine aromas.

HOLOS Citra Hops kombucha
- Available from HOLOS (£32/12 x 330ml), Amazon (£37.99/12 x 330ml)
Best sparkling tea for beer drinkers
If you’re looking for an everyday sparkling tea then try this hops-flavoured number – packed with citrussy flavour, refreshing and pleasingly fizzy, it’s a great swap for beer and would work well with barbecue food. Better yet, HOLOS is a brand with a strong social mission – every box of kombucha sold helps create work opportunities for survivors of slavery.
Available from:
HOLOS (£32/12 x 330ml)
Amazon (£37.99/12 x 330ml)
Saicho Darjeeling tea
- Available from Master of Malt (£17.75), The Whisky Exchange (£17.75)
Best food-friendly sparkling tea
Grown in the foothills of the Himalayas, this sparkling tea has lovely warming, spicy and woody aromas and flavours. It would be delicious sipped alongside hearty food like grilled meats and roast veg.
Available from:
Master of Malt (£17.75)
The Whisky Exchange (£17.75)
Saicho Sixty Stone Mountain
- Available from Saicho Drinks (£60), Harrods (£60)
Best sparkling tea for special occasions
Made using a rare black tea sourced from Sixty Stone Mountain in Hualien County, Taiwan, this is incredibly layered and rich in character; think honeyed, lush fruitiness and woody spice. It also comes in a beautiful box, making it great for gifting.
Available from:
Saicho Drinks (£60)
Harrods (£60)
L.A Brewery Sparkling English Blush
- Available from L.A Brewery (£12), The Wine Society (£9.50), Virgin Wines (£11.99)
Best sparkling rosé tea
In our opinion this is one of the best non-alcoholic swaps for rosé wine. Full of fresh red fruits, rhubarb and floral elderflower, with gentle funk, it’s perfect for summer sipping.
Available from:
L.A Brewery (£12)
The Wine Society (£9.50)
Virgin Wines (£11.99)
Berry Bros. & Rudd Own Selection sparkling tea
- Available from Berry Bros. & Rudd (£16.95)
Best sparkling tea for wine drinkers
This elegant tea from the fine wine and spirits merchant is made in partnership with top sparkling tea producer The REAL Drinks Co, so it’s no surprise that it ticks all the boxes. Made with first flush tea leaves sourced from the Puttabong tea estate in India, it’s softly fruity and spicy, with the tea notes really shining through.
Available from:
Berry Bros. & Rudd (£16.95)
