                                According to the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, commercially produced kombucha must contain less than 0.5% alcohol by volume (ABV) to be classified as a non-alcoholic beverage. This low level of alcohol often raises the question: can kombucha give you a BAC reading that could cause concern? Understanding the fermentation process and variations in ABV is key to answering this common query.
