In this episode of Yours for the Making, host Robin Johnson dives into a conversation rich in craft, community, and kombucha with Leon Driver, of Booyah Vitality – the family-run kombucha and health drinks brand making waves across the South East of England.
Leon shares how Booyah went from a kitchen-side passion project to a fast-growing wellness brand, producing natural kombucha, turmeric shots, and dandelion coffee from their Hastings-based brewery.
Learn about their handcrafted process, the importance of real ingredients, and the growing demand for gut health and probiotic drinks.
We explore the science behind kombucha, why not all kombucha is created equal, and how health-conscious consumers can make better decisions in a market dominated by processed foods and misleading “natural” labels. Leon also talks about the culture of wellness, health trends and the entrepreneurial highs and lows of building a business with family.
Plus, discover Leon’s passion for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, how he balances business with wellness, and the surprising parallels between kombucha brewing and surfing.
