As many of you know, I’m not usually a fan of low- or non-alcoholic wines – they often lack the magic ingredients and that’s not just alcohol – it’s flavour and drinkability. However, after recently trying Belly Dance, I may have found my new favourite non-alcoholic drink. Even better, it’s made close to home, crafted by a dynamic duo – one of whom hails from Edinburgh.
What is Belly Dance?
At its heart, Belly Dance is a kefir soda – a naturally fermented fizz made from water kefir grains using 100% natural ingredients. This fermentation magic creates a light, refreshing drink, packed with probiotics to support a healthy gut microbiome. What’s not to love?
Unlike many soft drinks, Belly Dance is:
Low sugar & low calorie
Caffeine-free
Sweetener-free (not even stevia)
Vegan-friendly
Full of antioxidants, vitamins, and organic acids with natural anti-inflammatory benefits
In short, it’s all the goodies, none of the nasties.
The Belly Dance Difference
There are plenty of kombuchas and soft drinks out there, but Belly Dance stands out for its clean, crisp taste and its focus on both wellness and to be honest – joy!
As Hannah and Harriet say “We wanted a drink that fits into our lifestyle – something that feels good and does good.”
And that’s exactly what Belly Dance delivers: a drink you can enjoy post-workout, at a party, or as a mid-afternoon pick-me-up.
The Creators
Hannah and Harriet first met as yoga teachers in Hackney. With Hannah originally from Edinburgh, the duo are now doing headstands for a different kind of balance — shaking up the drinks world. When they’re not flowing through yoga stretches or dancing until sunrise, they’re busy bringing their creation to life: Belly Dance. A sparkling new take on refreshment, Belly Dance is designed to embody both fun and function.
And Diana’s favourite?
“Although I enjoyed the full range, the fiery ginger stood out as my top pick – vibrant, zesty, and full of kick.”
