"Went to a Kombucha Tasting Session on Sat 4th of May 2024 in Otley. Had a great time, tried lots of interesting Kombucha and some Kefir and cold brewed coffee. Kevin knows his stuff and is clearly passionate about making healthy, great tasting drinks available and in a sustainable way. It’s absolutely the future and i will definitely be visiting more often! Thanks Kombucha Kevin! 😁"

"We really enjoyed this tasting event. Kev the owner is very friendly and welcoming, and passionate about the products he sells. The tasting allows you to explore the range of different kombuchas, which he explains very well. There is no hard sell and it was a very pleasant way to spend 90 minutes. Everyone who came bought a few items, just because we wanted to try things at home and we will definitely return to fill our fridge. This event is well worth trying, as it’s low key and fun and a relaxed atmosphere, but it’s well worth popping into the shop too to try something different, that’s also good for you!"

"Did a Kombucha tasting session. Was a great session. Tasted 8 different types plus Kafir. The group also tried cold coffee. A fun interactive session. Highly recommended."

The Comeback Story
This isn't a before and after story.
This is a before, during, and still figuring it out story.
I spent years putting work first, health second, and my gut...well, I didn't think about my gut at all.
Until the burnout hit. The belly grew. The hangovers got worse.
So I decided to build something better.
It started with gut health. Kombucha, Kimchi, cutting back on booze.
It became a mission to help other people in their 40s do the same.
This is my comeback story.
Now let's start yours.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is Functional Drinks Club?

The address if you ever want to visit the Shop and Cafe:
7 Manor Square,
Otley,
Leeds
LS21 3AP
When will my box be delivered?
We on post our boxes out Monday - Thursday to make sure we don't end up with fresh booch sat around in the sun or in a depot all weekend.
You can order any day of the week, we just won't send boxes out on a weekend.
Doesn't Kombucha taste of underpants?
I'm not going to lie, there's some home brew kombuchas I've tried that smell and taste like 2 week old underpants.
However, not all kombucha is made equal and what's being created now is popping up in michelin star restaraunts as great wine alternatives.
A whole new world of discovery awaits you when you join the club.
What can I expect in the box?
The kombuchas you picked, nothing more, nothing less.
This is all about getting the best booch to your door anywhere in the UK.
Can I pause, cancel change my monthly subscription?
Of course you can, and it's really easy to do.
Just let us know you want to cancel 5 working days before your monthly payment comes out and we'll make sure whatever you choose to do is done.
You don't come across as a Wellness Guru?
Don't confuse humour with not knowing my onions. The truth is, I think the wellness industry takes itself too seriously and needs to lighten up a little.
Just because I I'm not using big words, science, and data to make my point doesn't make it any less valid. It just makes it easy to consume and digest....no pun intended.
Why isn't the delivery box branded?
We run a test on all the boxes that went missing in 'transit' or were delivered but not delivered if you know what I mean.
It turns out that boxes that always went missing were the branded boxes. And the delivery services don't really care if they lose your parcel or not, and they don't give you the money back.
So, I just send everything in unbranded boxes to make sure that it arrives with you in one piece.
Do I need to do yoga to drink kombucha?
No, you can get the amazing health benefits of Kombucha without having to strike a pose, do breath work or go wild swimming.
It's a shame that kombucha is so heavily linked with the wellness industry because drinking it daily while going about your daily life can make a massive difference.
