Welcome to RISE Botanicals

RISE has developed a new line of delicious adaptogenic beverages, RISE Botanicals, using the same fanatical approach to better-for-you beverages we’re notorious for.

What’s the Difference Between RISE Kombucha & RISE Botanicals?

Our new RISE Botanicals line is not a kombucha, but rather a sparkling beverage infused with adaptogens that aid our bodies in reacting to or recovering from both short and long-term physical or mental stress. Some also boost immunity and overall well-being.

Kombucha is a sparkling beverage made by fermenting tea and sugar with a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY). Kombucha comprises living cultures, organic acids, and antioxidants that help digestion and support the immune system. Real kombucha (like RISE Kombucha) is raw, unpasteurized, and filled with good bacteria and yeast.

What Are Adaptogens?

Adaptogens are herbs and mushrooms that support our bodies in reacting to or recovering from short and long-term physical or mental stress. Some Adaptogens are also known to boost immunity and overall well-being.1

“The inspiration for our adaptogens came from everywhere; it started obviously by regrouping plants related to each function, with flavour taken under consideration,” explains RISE’s Research and Development Director Kelly Gallego. RISE Botanicals are infused with various adaptogens, depending on their function, such as ashwagandha, holy basil, reishi and lavender.

“Once the function was selected, the best adaptogenic herbs such as lavender and chamomile were added to reinforce the function. Adaptogens have quite a specific taste, which is why I wanted to be sure to select those which are delicious, ensuring accessible beverages for everyone.”
