Meet Amber, the heart and soul behind Daily Kombucha, a cozy kombucha spot nestled in the vibrant 4th Street Market in downtown Santa Ana. Amber's journey with kombucha goes way back, rooted in family traditions and a deep passion for health and wellness.
A Family Tradition of Wellness
"Kombucha is a familiar taste because my mom used to make it when I was in elementary school. As a family, we understand that healthy habits start young and it's a life-long journey," Amber shares. This love for kombucha and its health benefits inspired her to open Daily Kombucha and bring that familiar taste of home to the community.
Santa Ana: A Place to Call Home
For Amber, Santa Ana isn’t just where her business is located—it’s home. "Downtown Santa Ana has been my second home. I love the people here and all the friends that I’ve made and people that I’ve encountered in the past 7 years." Her love for the city is evident, and her dedication to creating a space where people can feel good about taking care of their health is central to her mission.
A Vision for Santa Ana’s Future
Amber dreams big for Santa Ana's future, and her vision is filled with hope and excitement. "I would love to see Santa Ana as the most diversified city in SoCal, where every restaurant offers an amazing experience for both residents and visitors." She imagines a future where the local food scene thrives, with the city becoming a destination for incredible culinary experiences.
Building Through Hard Times
Of course, the journey hasn’t always been easy. Amber reflects on the challenges faced by her business and others in the area. "Seeing the streets empty and people detoured to other places to eat because of the street closures and transit developments has been tough. But we know all the hard work is for a better future for the people and businesses in Santa Ana." Despite the ups and downs, Amber remains optimistic, trusting that the city's growth will bring greater opportunities for everyone.
