Launched in over 130 HEB stores in March of this year, Greenbelt Kombucha is the hand crafted collaboration of Austin entrepreneurs Gavin Booth, Adam Blumenshein, Tim Klatt and Nathan Klatt, and Rick Boucard of Barrel Creek Provisions. With a retail price of just $2 per can, their new canned craft kombucha is the first of it’s kind to be developed in the south, setting a delightful spin on the artisanal drink and soft drink market in Texas.
Compared to other kombucha products in the market, Greenbelt contains less lactic acid and that noticeable funky vinegary flavor that most probably despise in other brands. It’s crafted with some of the finest premium teas available in the world, with ingredients such as Royal Pu-erh, White Peony, Rooibos, and Yerba Mate.
Each tea selection is steeped with high-quality freeze dried fruit during the fermentation process, all while avoiding any additional sugars and fruit juices during production. The production method, combined with the gut-healthy probiotics gives Greenbelt a healthier edge on taste and the lasting benefits that has made kombucha such a popular soft drink.
“When we created Greenbelt, we set lofty goals for ourselves because as a company it wasn’t enough to just strive for the best quality kombucha on the shelves. Through years of testing we were also able to get our craft kombucha in a can which helps us provide it to consumers at an affordable price fit for any budget. Everyone should have access to affordable tasty health food.”
– Gavin Booth Co-Founder
Greenbelt Kombucha produces their entire line with each can at only 40 calories offered in four flavors. Flavors include Peach Blossom white tea, Blood Orange yerba mate, Strawberry Fields rooibos tea, and Hibiscus Berry black tea, each delivering a low sugar, low calorie, and perfectly balanced flavor profile.
The creators of Greenbelt Kombucha are as respectful of the sustainability of the environment as they are on the overall quality and taste of their product. The kombucha is brewed using 100% wind energy, and each can is recyclable, making it one of the cornerstone highlights of their product.
“The name Greenbelt Craft Kombucha strives from our team’s love of Texas greenbelts. Anyone that hikes any trail or greenbelt surely knows that there are a ton of signs saying that glass bottles are not only not allowed, but you will be fined if you are caught hiking with one. There’s nothing better than being the first major southern kombucha that you can take anywhere without any worry, from the greenbelt to any public pool.”
Gavin Booth Co-Founder
Cans of Greenbelt Kombucha can be found in the refrigerated sections for $2 each throughout hundreds of HEB and Wal-Mart locations throughout Texas.

New Orleans, LA - On October 22, 2024, I recently had an opportunity to attend the grand opening of Caesars New Orleans, marking the completion of a stunning $435 million transformation of the former Harrah’s New Orleans. It was an evening to remember, filled with excitement, luxury, and the vibrant spirit of New Orleans. The festivities began on Canal Street with an exhilarating ceremony led by Caesars Entertainment CEO Tom Reeg, President & COO Anthony Carano, and Caesars New Orleans General Manager Samir Mowad. The atmosphere was electric as they joined Caesar himself and an iconic New Orleans second-line band in a lively procession into the casino. It felt like the entire city had come out to celebrate, with Caesars New Orleans team members and Mayor LaToya Cantrell also joining the event to commemorate this historic occasion. Anthony Carano’s pride in introducing Caesars to New Orleans was palpable. “From local favorite Emeril Lagasse to our long-time partner, Chef Nobu, to the beautiful state-of-the-art Caesars Sportsbook, all-new rooms and gaming floor, and of course, our gorgeous new center bar, Octavia, Caesars New Orleans offers something for everyone. It’s a world-class resort in the heart of the Big Easy, and we can’t wait for our guests to experience it,” he said. The ceremony was a spectacle, kicking off with an iconic Mardi Gras float featuring Caesar and his court, and a dazzling firework show that lit up the New Orleans sky. The second-line band then led us revelers into the resort’s elegant center bar, Octavia, where we indulged in a “Taste of Caesars New Orleans.” Each bite from the six on-property restaurants was a delightful journey, capturing the essence of New Orleans’ rich culinary scene. Throughout the night, elemental entertainers, including the Saints Cheer Krewe, Mardi Gras Indians, Zulu Tramps, and showgirls, created an authentic and unforgettable Big Easy experience. Everywhere I turned, there was something new to marvel at, each performance more mesmerizing than the last. Samir Mowad, SVP and GM of Caesars New Orleans, highlighted the significance of the transformation, stating, “This year marks 25 years since we opened in New Orleans, and the completion of this project is the perfect way to usher in a new era with Caesars. Synonymous with the Caesars name, our new resort is pure elegance, and we’re excited to introduce a luxury brand like this to New Orleans. We are extremely grateful for the support of the community, our team members, and our guests as we come to the finish line of this tremendous transformation.” The hotel itself is impressive,…
