1
Brew the Tea
In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Remove from heat and add the tea bags. Let steep for 10-15 minutes.
2
Add Sugar
Remove the tea bags and stir in 1 cup of sugar until fully dissolved. Allow the sweetened tea to cool to room temperature.
3
Combine Ingredients
In a clean glass jar, combine the cooled sweetened tea, 1 cup of starter tea, and gently place the SCOBY into the jar.
4
Ferment
Cover the jar with a breathable cloth or coffee filter secured with a rubber band. Let it ferment at room temperature for 7-14 days, tasting occasionally until it reaches the desired flavor.
5
Add Flavors
Once fermentation is complete, remove the SCOBY and reserve it for the next batch. Add 1 cup of coconut water and 1 cup of freshly squeezed lime juice to the kombucha and stir well.
6
Secondary Fermentation (Optional)
For added fizz, bottle the flavored kombucha in sealed bottles and let it ferment for an additional 3-7 days.
7
Serve
Chill the kombucha in the refrigerator. Serve over ice and garnish with lime slices and mint leaves.
