What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a delicious tea-based beverage that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal reasons.

There are several centuries of popular stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold commercially but can easily be prepared by fermenting tea using a spongy mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also often popularly referred to as the "mushroom" although it is not really a mushroom. It slowly grows on the surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and looks like a near whitish colored pancake.
