Yes — Kombucha Fleur de sureau & Citron is ultra-processed.
Not a great choice for everyday.
This is ultra-processed because it contains steviol glycosides, an industrially isolated artificial sweetener, and natural flavourings, which are industrial flavour additives. Soluble vegetable fibres and added live cultures also indicate an industrial formulation. Citric acid and erythritol alone would not determine the classification, but the sweetener and flavourings do.

Yes — Kombucha Fleur de sureau & Citron by Nexba is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This is ultra-processed because it contains steviol glycosides, an industrially isolated artificial sweetener, and natural flavourings, which are industrial flavour additives. Soluble vegetable fibres and added live cultures also indicate an industrial formulation. Citric acid and erythritol alone would not determine the classification, but the sweetener and flavourings do.
Nomi has reviewed similar products that are not ultra-processed, including Apple & Elderflower Organic Kombucha by Hip Pop, Ginger kombucha by One Living, Elderflower kombucha by Momo. See the healthier alternatives above for details.
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
