Method

Brewing the Kombucha

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sweet Tea

    In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and add 1 cup of sugar. Stir until completely dissolved. Add the black tea bags and steep for 10-15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cool the Tea

    Remove the tea bags and allow the sweet tea to cool to room temperature.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the tea is cooled, pour it into a large glass or ceramic container. Add 1 cup of starter tea and gently place the SCOBY on top.

Fermentation Process

  1. 4

    Cover and Store

    Cover the container with a clean cloth or coffee filter secured with a rubber band. Place it in a warm, dark place (around 75-85°F or 24-29°C) for 7-14 days.

  2. 5

    Taste and Decide

    After 7 days, taste the kombucha. If it’s too sweet, let it ferment longer until it reaches your desired tartness.

Flavoring and Bottling

  1. 6

    Add Flavor

    Once the desired taste is achieved, remove the SCOBY and set it aside. For Ginger Turmeric kombucha, add 1 tablespoon of grated ginger and turmeric. For SuperBerry kombucha, add 1 cup each of raspberries, blueberries, and sliced strawberries.

  2. 7

    Bottle the Kombucha

    Using a funnel, pour the flavored kombucha into clean bottles, leaving about an inch of space at the top. Seal the bottles tightly.

  3. 8

    Second Fermentation

    Leave the sealed bottles at room temperature for 3-7 days to carbonate. Check daily to ensure they do not explode.

  4. 9

    Refrigerate and Serve

    After the second fermentation, refrigerate the bottles to stop the fermentation process. Serve chilled and enjoy!
