As a sommelier and brewer, I can confidently say that Synergy raw kombucha is not completely caffeine-free. While it is considered naturally decaffeinated, it does contain a small amount of caffeine. The caffeine content in Synergy raw kombucha varies depending on the flavor, but it typically ranges from 8mg to 14mg per serving.
To put this into perspective, a regular cup of coffee contains around 100mg of caffeine per 8 ounces, while decaf coffee has about 5mg of caffeine per 8 ounces. So, compared to coffee, Synergy raw kombucha has significantly less caffeine.
I personally find that the caffeine content in Synergy raw kombucha is very mild and does not have the same stimulating effect as a cup of coffee. However, if you are particularly sensitive to caffeine or trying to avoid it altogether, it's worth noting that there is still a small amount present in Synergy raw kombucha.
I believe it's important to be aware of the caffeine content in any beverage we consume. For some people, even a small amount of caffeine can have an impact on their sleep quality or overall well-being. Therefore, if you are trying to limit your caffeine intake, it may be best to opt for caffeine-free beverages or stick to decaf options.
While Synergy raw kombucha is not completely caffeine-free, it does contain a relatively low amount of caffeine compared to coffee. However, it's always a good idea to be aware of your own caffeine sensitivity and make choices that align with your personal preferences and health goals.
