UK-based Momo Kombucha has unveiled its latest seasonal release: Amadora's Passion Fruit Kombucha, created in collaboration with produce specialist Natoora.

Launching on 30 September, the new flavour is made with organic passion fruit grown by fourth-generation farmer Amadora in Seville. Unlike commercial crops picked early for transport, Amadora allows her fruit to ripen fully on the vine before collecting it from nets placed beneath the plants – a low-intervention method that produces fruit with higher natural sweetness and aromatic depth.

The kombucha is Soil Association–certified organic and marks both Momo and Natoora’s first Spanish-grown collaboration and their first partnership with a female producer. Sales will also support the Natoora Farm Fund, which invests in the next generation of sustainable growers.

Momo Kombucha co-founder Josh Puddle said: “We’re incredibly excited about this collaboration with Natoora – our first Spanish-grown seasonal flavour and our first working with a female producer. Amadora’s passion fruit is exceptional in every way: sweet, vibrant, and bursting with tropical character. Our brewers have done an amazing job capturing that flavour in its purest form.”

Described as 'vibrantly sweet and sour with a tropical burst', the kombucha combines Amadora’s ripe passion fruit with Momo's raw, unfiltered kombucha base. The result is a bright, refreshing drink that balances natural fruit sugars with the tang of living kombucha cultures.

Amadora’s Passion Fruit Kombucha (RRP £4.50 / 330ml glass bottle) will be available from Momo’s website, Natoora, Gail's Bakery, Selfridges, Planet Organic and Whole Foods Market.
