about us
Making the switch from professional sport into the “real” world is never easy. When you do a sport for so long, it becomes your world, your community, and ultimately a big part of your identity. Finding who you are without it can be, to say the least, challenging.
When Shoshauna & Will started Healthy Hooch Kombucha immediately after retirement, they hit the ground running, and it was the best thing they could have done. It gave them new purpose and new goals in an area that they are truly passionate about.
Health.
Will grew up as a mountain kid in Whistler, and Shoshauna grew up in the Fraser Valley, and over their 19 years together, they’ve always shared a love for sports, the outdoors and food. They naturally found themselves thinking like entrepreneurs, and starting a business was the next step. So they took the plunge, retired from sport and started a beverage company in the fall of 2016.
Over the last 8 years they’ve moved, scaled up, started growing ingredients on their farm, producing a number of different health beverages, they’ve been through a catastrophic flood, and have faced countless hurdles, but they have nothing if not perseverance! Will and Shoshauna are motivated and ambitious to a fault, but with that comes a passion for always being and doing better. That is something they stand by and promise to themselves, their family, and the people that love and trust their products.
Striving to always be and do better.
söta started with the idea to be an alternative to flavoured waters. A beverage that truly sparkles. One free from sugar, sweeteners, colours, misleading ingredients but also full of beneficial and organic herbs, fruit extracts and trace minerals.
As we say “bubbles with benefits”!
