Nestled in the heart of the lively Matakana village, Daily Organics welcomes you to a world of wholesome beverages. Renowned for their iconic kombucha, this locally owned brand has recently opened a charming shop at their factory and brewery, marking an exciting new chapter in the Daily Organics journey.
Established in 2013, Daily Organics embarked on a mission to create unique, healthy drinks for their family, friends, and the vibrant Matakana community, beginning with a stall at the famous Matakana Village Farmers' Market. Right from the outset, they were committed to being 100% Bio Gro Organic certified, a testament to their dedication to environmentally friendly practices and ethical sourcing.
What sets Daily Organics apart is their hands-on approach, with many ingredients grown on their own farm in Matakana. For Daily Organics, designing and crafting beverages is a labour of love, a thoughtful process that results in memorable products. They firmly believe that people deserve the best, and their commitment to delivering unadulterated, high-quality goods shines through in every sip. Each batch they create is a unique limited-edition worth savouring.
As you step inside the new Daily Organics Shop, you’ll discover a fridge full of their classic chilled traditional kombucha brews and on the shelves you’ll find their Organic Apple Cider Vinegar and delicious range of six teas made with ingredients from their farm in Matakana. Plus there's a lot more in store, Daily Organics merchandise and limited seasonal ‘From the Farm’ products. If you fancy brewing your own kombucha they even have SCOBY for sale, complete with a kombucha recipe so you can embark on your own beverage making journey at home.
The excitement doesn't end there. Daily Organics is thrilled to be expanding their range, with six new beverages launching at the end of October. This delicious selection includes three botanical sparkling soft drinks - Classic Lemonade, Ginger Beer, and Rose Lemonade. These drinks are a premium take on old-fashioned classics, crafted with the best organic ingredients. Refreshing on their own or as the perfect cocktail mix.
In addition to their botanical soft drinks, Daily Organics is also launching a trio of 0% alcohol sparkling wine alternatives - Blanc, Rouge, and Rosé varieties. These alcohol-free creations are unlike anything you've tasted before, they’re not just a de-alcoholised wine. Made from the ground up and layered with fruits and botanicals, they offer a sophisticated alternative to traditional wine, with the added benefit of being low in sugar. Delicious!
The Daily Organics team look forward to warmly welcoming locals and visitors alike to their new store. Raise your glass to everyone's health and happiness, and join the Daily Organics team in celebrating the art of crafting unforgettable beverages. Cheers!
Daily Organics is open Monday to Friday 10am- 2pm and Saturday 9am-1pm. You can find them tucked behind Premium Real Estate, between the Rusty Pelican and the Matakana Pub, with pedestrian access only. Look out for the sandwich board positioned on the footpath.
